GED STUDENT VIRGINIA VALDEZ

Virginia is 25 years old and a mother of six children. She was introduced to the ministry by her need to perform community service, but once she entered our doors the wonderful work of the Lord began. We identified a few specific needs and her journey with BridgeBuilders commenced. She is currently working on her GED with our instructor, Julie Busse, and is a faithful attendee of the Thursday GED bible study led by Jeri Fowler.

Virginia credits Pastor Von Minor as being the most influential person in her life. “He told me to stop jumping from one place to another, just to stay here and see what the Lord can do”. Virginia, is learning through her bible study and her new relationships with other Godly men and women that taking care of her six kids is the upmost of her responsibilities, “I am single mother of six kids and he (Von Minor) taught me not to give up, to keep my head up high, and he is going to put me in parenting classes to help me have better communication with my kids and to have strength.” .

The Lord is bringing people to our ministry everyday that are ready to hear about and experience the love of Jesus. Our GED class is a great entry point for many people in the community. They are surrounded by godly men and women who pour into them both educationally and spiritually. Thank you for continuing to support our ministry and our GED class, which is the first step many residents take along the journey to a changed life, full of hope for the future and eternity.
