ML is the woman has been a drug addict and a prostitute most of her life.

Out of all the women we have worked with over the years, she has been the most time consuming. While I was out of town for a week, my wife and Terry (he just celebrated one year of sobriety) did much to help her stay clean and to grow in Christ. She has many issues because of the abuse in her early years and the lifestyle she has lived.

Even though it takes much effort to work with ML, it is more than worth it. It is very evident that God has His hand on her hand and that she is called to ministry. Everyone that spends any time with her, recognizes the call of God on her. It is also very evident that the devil hates what God is doing in her life and he keeps trying to sabotage her victory, but she keeps moving forward.

We are having some limited contact with her daughters who are prostitutes. One of them is very open and receptive with us. She is not a drug user so we are able to reach her more than the other daughter who is involved in drug use and drug dealing.

Right after coming back from my trip to see my mother and son, I had to be at the hospital with ML. It took five hours of my very precious time.
