I overcame homelessness, addiction. Now I help others make the journey.



My life changed 20 years ago, when my friend and I were floating down the Rogue River in Oregon. Suddenly the motor fell off the boat, which tipped over. I slipped into the icy water. Some young children threw a life jacket over to me but I gave it to my friend.

As I sank into the river, my lungs began to fill up with water. My hands reached out to a branch on the side of the bank. As I looked up, I saw clouds moving in the sky and birds flying by. I heard a powerful voice say, “This is a little of my power and what I can do to you.” At that moment I knew it was my creator.

When an ambulance arrived, the emergency medical technician told me it was a miracle  I survived the frigid water.
