About Us

In 1986 I began an extraordinary journey that transformed my life. Drug addiction and dependency had ruined every aspect of my life leaving me without family, friends, or a home. I was homeless for the first time in my life.

Years of denial kept me from recovery and more importantly, it kept me from God. 

Then one cold December morning nearly naked and freezing I found a water faucet to get a drink and it was the coldest water I had ever experienced. It shocked me and at that moment I had given up on life and asked God to take me now. I didn't care if I lived or died. 

In tears, I begged God to save me from this miserable life and addiction and the Holy Spirit fell upon me and said follow me home. I surrendered my life to serving God even as I was homeless, and there began my transformation.

This was the discovery that filled my days as I walked with Jesus Christ wherever I was he and God restored my life giving me 33 years of total sobriety in recovery through Christ.

In 2023 I was called to return this love to others and thus was born Miracles Ministry Mending. 

The years following my decision to follow Christ and trust in God's plan for me. I never questioned what God had set before me.

I began to clothe and feed the homeless population in my city however I could. I helped with what I had.

God took those years as I used them to repair and restore my life to functionality. I worked tirelessly to stay focused on God's will and to hone my skills as I worked to change every bad thing that led me to the streets. God has blessed me with an overabundance of attention to detail and conviction so I would never repeat the same mistakes. I questioned everything that affected my recovery.

In that dedication to my sobriety and personal relationship with Jesus Christ, I was given an uncontrollable desire to learn and master all that I do. As I worked in the Spirit of the Lord, I gave 110% for God's glory. I became more than just a craftsman; I learned to be responsible in all I did as a Testimony to the gifts God had instilled in me.

I was raised in the church but I turned away from GOD in my teens. I was deeply insecure but I wanted love and acceptance so that’s what I began to pursue in all the wrong places. I turned to drugs and alcohol at the age of 16 and it was like I felt like I could fit in better and relate to others but that was not a good choice for me.

 I have an addictive nature and soon I found myself drinking and using drugs every day, my grades dropped I barely made it through high school. By the time I was 19, I was addicted to meth living out of my car and various drug houses. I decided to make a change I needed structure so went to the Navy. It went well at first but soon enough my addictive nature caught up with me as I began to drink as often as I could in the service which led to some horrible choices, I had a very hard time because of my alcohol use and ended up leaving the service. Through my twenty’s, thirty’s, and forty’s I never stopped drinking or using drugs. I learned to live and work with my addictions as I just dealt with the consequences but could not hold a job down nor could not keep a roof over my head. I finally decided to get some help I finally surrendered and went into a detox center gaving my life to Jesus worked a 12-step program and now I have 3 years clean and sober. I am so grateful to GOD for allowing me another chance I show my gratitude by helping others and I carry the message to others struggling with addiction.
