🎓 TOMORROW NIGHT, WE CELEBRATE THREE LIVES TRANSFORMED! 🙌
Tomorrow night, we have the incredible privilege of watching Nicholas Thomas, Chris Johnson, and Michael Blaylock walk across the stage after completing their year-long journey at Project Hope.
Three men. Three very different stories. One faithful God.
Nick came to us after more than two decades of addiction had taken him through broken relationships, homelessness, and overdoses. At the point where he finally knew something had to change, he cried out for help. Five days later, he walked through the doors of Project Hope. Now he walks into graduation celebrating 12 months of sobriety and restored relationships with his family.
Chris once found himself homeless on the beaches of Florida, caught in a battle with alcohol he could not break on his own. Then God used an unexpected connection to open the door to Project Hope. What followed was a year of surrender and transformation, and Chris has expressed a desire to remain here and serve the same community that invested in him.
Michael entered this journey carrying pain that began in childhood and followed him into addiction. This year, we have watched him face his past, surrender his life to Christ, and begin rebuilding what had been broken. His children have remained a powerful motivation as he works toward becoming the father God has called him to be.
Tomorrow isn’t simply about receiving three diplomas.
It is about looking back at where these men began and being able to say, “Look what the Lord has done.”
And it isn’t the end of their stories. Graduation marks a new beginning as they continue walking out everything God has begun in their lives.
❤️ We would love for our friends, families, churches, supporters, and community to come celebrate with us!

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”
