Derrick W.

Growing up was confusing being shuffled back and forth between parents. I was isolated and had some mental issues. I began smoking, drinking and doing drugs at 15 to cope with mental, physical and spiritual pain. I was stranded and homeless when I found Teen Challenge. I want to become a better person and figure out how to move forward in life. I want a relationship with Jesus Christ, learn the gospel and have peace in my heart and learn how to live!
