READ ABOUT WHAT GOD HAS DONE!!!
...when I was 25, and thoughts of ending it all were running through my mind once again.  Just a few months prior, a good friend of mine had given me an older King James version Bible.  I had come across many Bibles in my lifetime, and had maybe glanced inside the cover only a few times.  Everything I had placed in my life was more important, more valuable, and more urgent than what I thought was in the Bible.  One night as I was crying desperately in my living room, I went and grabbed the Bible that was given to me.  As I was holding it tightly to my chest, and praying to a God I barely knew anything about, I prayed for Him to “rescue me.” ....

At the age of 15 I became a new creation. I was abused from the time I can remember until the age of 12. I had so much confusion about life, I did not know how to deal with it. By the age of 15 I was a clear disaster. I quit school, lived by myself, and waited only for the next moment to do drugs. My Mom told me about a Christian Girls Home in Tennessee, and two weeks later I was on my way. There I was introduced to the Love of my life, Jesus Christ. I began to be transformed by the renewing of my mind. The Lord has healed me from the shame I used to carry. I've been on three missions trips to three different countries. The Lord is my best friend, always with me, will never leave me or forsake me, and He's always helping me learn new things. Currently I'm learning you don't have to let your culture define you but you can help define your culture, and even the smallest dream you have for yourself can come true if you Trust in God.

Now I have been walking with Christ for over 9 years, but I can look back and see how's He's been walking with me for my ENTIRE LIFE.

3 years ago I became a faithful part of COTP and gave my life to the Lord. Since then, I have been transformed on the inside.  I went from hopelessness, having no direction in my life, and just wondering why I was here, to having purpose, peace, and joy.  I used to ask, "What is  this life all about? There has to be more."  Those questions have been answered in many different ways  and continue  to be answered the more I come to know our Lord Jesus Christ.  I was tired of going through everyday feeling that there had to be more, and asking myself,  " What is this life about? Do I die and that's the end of my life?"  I found the Lord by attending a local spirit filled church with a Pastor who loves the Lord and has laid down their life for the Gospel.  I am now fulfilled. - Brandy

Before hurricane Rita we lived in Cameron, Louisiana.

We wanted to move, but we couldn’t sale our house.

We desired to have a home that was newer.The enemy lied to us and stole from us with this house. God gave us  a word for about a new home, as this wasour desire .This is the word He gave, “Sometimes we get

what we are asking for right then and sometimes we have to wait” Well, that new home was a special order so we had to pull up and wait. We

had peace; God was preparing us for a new chapter in our lives. There were a few stops along the way after the storm like Sunset and then

Sulphur. But then God led us to Iowa, Louisiana. Now we have a new home that no one else has lived in and we didn’t have to take a loss on

the home we owned in Cameron. See we look at Rita as a blessing not a curse, He provided everything for us, every step of the way.

I was diagnosed with kidney failure with just 39% function. It was going down hill fast. But during one service my faith was stirred as the worship team lead the song "Healer" and I said "Lord, I know you ARE my healer." I just thanked him for my healing as I worshiped him. When I went to the Dr. just a few days later he was astonished as my Kidney function was 100% and my triglycerides and other blood work were all normal too! Praise God! -Dolores

I never really had a relationship with the Lord growing up. Later in life a vision came to me in Wal-Mart that changed my life and steered me in the right direction. Many blessings and opportunities have come my way. Such as attending International School of Ministry through the Church and growing a closer relationship with the Lord.
