Changed Lives
This is a testimony by one of the ladies staying at Wheeler's Center for Women and Children (formerly the Care Center). She is studying for her GED in the Education Center and this was one of her last assignments.

Care Center for Women and Children
The following information is my personal experience that I’ve had at the Care Center and the blessings that have been bestowed upon me:
I found myself without a place to live in October. I had nowhere to go, so I called Adult and Child and they brought me to the Care Center.
Never being homeless before, I didn’t know what to expect. I was nervous, scared, and pretty much stayed to myself.
The case workers are wonderful here, they work with you so you can obtain your goals. They help you get jobs, housing, Medicaid, and Wishard Advantage.
They also provided Bible study three days a week and I’m so happy that they did because I found and accepted Jesus as my Savior while I’ve been at the Care Center.
Now that I have both the Lord and the case workers on my side, I have peace of mind and my housing is coming into play.
God is in the Care Center and he watches over us and he helps us with our everyday troubles if we just seek him out.
I personally wouldn’t like to see anyone homeless, but if they are, please come to the Care Center because it’s the best possible place to come for warmth, food, love, and the Lord’s prayer.”
Changed lives. This is what it's all about. Thanks to all of our donors, volunteers and prayer warriors who help make this possible for the many men, women and children we serve.
