Rhonda and others,
They are already considering using Gretchen as a worker in the ministry as
one of their leaders working with other addicts. The director has
suggested, if she keeps this up, within maybe 6 or 7 months giving her a
leadership role in the ministry. She is also working and making 10 dollars
an hour at a company who hires people in this ministry. They have all sorts
of programs as functions of the church for followup and after care type
things. She told her boys she gave up smoking and doesn't smoke any longer
and that she was always going to be in their life from now on. She talked
about how much time she spends in prayer and how much time every day she
spends in worshiping the Lord. So it was a different person I saw today.
Phil.
