INTRODUCING AMBER & THE BLACK BUTTERFLY HOUSE I met Amber a couple years ago. Amber was incarcerated as a teenager and when she was released, she lived in transitional housing. With the support she received in this home, she made significant life changes. She is now the executive assistant of a Vice President at a Fortune 500 company. In addition, she started a non-profit called the Black Butterfly House, which is a transitional home giving women the same opportunity that was provided to her. This month, Amber welcomed her baby girl into this world. It was an honor to celebrate with her at her shower and pray for the new journey ahead of her as a mother. MN ADULT & TEEN CHALLENGE: Also this month, I received an invite to lead worship for a Fall kick off night at MN Adult & Teen Challenge. It was an event for alumni who have graduated their long and short-term programs, current clients in their Leadership Institute, and current clients who are in their Restoration program to recover from relapsing. A highlight of the evening was one of our worship team members sharing her faith story with those who attended. Her story resonated with the experiences of many of those in the room and they gave her a standing ovation when she finished. Thank you for your support and investment in this ministry to see lives changed and transformed through the full and abundant life Jesus offers (John 10:10). Much love to you all! Jackie
