It is not enough to talk about reaching the lost and helping the marginalized population in the community. We need to actually do something about it. This being our mental health awareness month at Convo, we chose to share stories of people that have been helped and others who have been the helpers of people struggling with SUDs.
Our feature story features Pastor Mary Kebbie who runs a street families ministry that is aimed to help the street families out of their vulnerable and destitute living conditions. The ministry has been the hands of Jesus, demonstrating the love of God to many who are all alone in the streets.
Martin Mawira shares his story as one who has been helped to help others. He has recovered from an unimaginable illness and now serves as an addiction counselor and as a living proof that recovery from SUDs is indeed possible.
More stories shared in this issue are meant to show that there is hope and help for those still struggling.
