Dorothy
Las Vegas
It’s hard for Dorothy to remember a time when she wasn’t running.
Searching for attention. Seeking acceptance. Looking for love from a father she never knew.
“I rebelled from an early age,” she admits.
It led her to destructive choices and eventually drugs and addiction.
Dorothy also ended up in abusive relationships.
Devastatingly, Dorothy was powerless to overcome her dependence on drugs. Six years ago, the most difficult challenge began when Dorothy tried meth.
In the darkest place she’s ever been, Dorothy finally found clarity. “I accepted that I was on drugs, I lost my kids, I was living in a trailer in a desert.”
There in the trailer, Dorothy saw a book called Unshackled and started praying for deliverance from anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, and the taste of drugs.
Dorothy found a rehabilitation facility which eventually led her to Hoving Home.
“Coming to Hoving Home is the best decision I’ve ever made,” Dorothy shares.
In addition to learning how to walk with Jesus, Dorothy has gained wisdom and direction in her parenting and how to manage her anger. Next, she plans to move to our Completers program and earn her GED to provide a stable life for herself and her kids.
“I am thankful to the Hoving Home, because I have great mentors who encourage me,” Dorothy shares. “They give their whole hearts into seeing our lives being transformed through Christ.”
With the help of caring friends like you, Dorothy finally found the true acceptance she’d always been searching for. She found rest and peace in Jesus!
