Carlton Hill’s life is a powerful testament to redemption: Once trapped in a cycle of addiction, homelessness, and despair, Carlton now leads the Changed Life

At the Mission’s annual Banquet on May 29, David Ray thanked everyone who supports the Mission, acknowledging how your compassion helped change his life forever.

On the darkest night of Doug Woodard’s life, evil thoughts crept into his mind. He even contemplated suicide. He had been in and out of addiction rehab programs since the 1990s, and the perpetual cycle of sobriety to relapse left him feeling hopeless. Once again, Doug found himself homeless, living in his car, seemingly unable to control his life.
Carol coordinates the programs at Faith House, working with residents to help them develop skills for independence. Carol also runs Crossed Bridges with her husband Jonathan. She enjoys playing any sport with a ball, crocheting, bike riding, and spending time with her husband and five children.
“He who loves God must love his brother also.” (1 John 4:21) explains what wakes Carol up in the morning to begin a new day; being able to serve the Lord while working with people, whether it be administratively or relationally. She loves hearing the testimonies of how Jesus has changed people’s lives, especially because He’s done so much for her!
