Nelly's Story
Hi, my name is Nelly and I am a graduate of Great Lakes Adult and Teen Challenge. In 2021, I was homeless, brokenhearted and had lost placement of my children. I wanted to commit suicide by overdose. At this very painful time I cried out to God from the core of my heart and with in minutes I was arrested and back in jail for the last time. I heard about Adult and Teen Challenge in jail and entered the program in June of 2021. In the program I learned to live a new way with structure and the Word of God. The staff became like family and opened their arms to me with love and kindness. I graduate in May of 2022. Soon after graduation I was able to get custody of my children and also started drug court. Drug court is an intense 14-month court program that I was required to complete. Because I was able to complete this all of my charges were dismissed and taken off my record with no prison time. Less than one female a year completes drug court in Fond du Lac County. Jesus helped me do this. When the Lord speaks our job is to believe like Jesus tells us in Mark 11:22-24 and His job is to perform. What the Lord has done since I graduated is more than I could have ever asked or imagained. He is true to His promises and His love never fails, He is a faithful God and Father. He will complete what he starts. I now have full custody of my children, I am married to a wonderful loving man of God, and I have graduated drug court. My testimony is not the gospel but it is a result of the gospel. I serve faithfully at my church and meet every week with my pastor. Jesus says, "You didn't choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask for, using my name." John 15:16 At Adult and Teen Challenge I learned to hear his voice and to live a new way not just for myself but for my family and others. Thank you for supporting Great Lakes Adult and Teen Challenge and people like me!
