Wow...have I got a story for you.
RaeLeigh Smith is a member of God's Girls and has been for almost 4 years. RaeLeigh's story is one that needs to be shared & she has given us permission to do so.
Years ago she worked at a convenience store & it was robbed. She was shot in the face/neck & she ended up in the hospital for months. During the recovery of this tragic even she lost custody of her children to her ex & she had to move in with her mother. When she came to God's Girls she was living with her mother but has since gotten her own place in M'boro, (GGs helped her furnish) She was able to get visitation with her children and she even got her teeth replaced. (She loss them when she got shot) About a year ago she came to class and told the group she had received a call saying authorities caught the guy and they wanted her to come to court to testify. She was really upset that she had to live thru the whole ordeal again. The girls prayed over her and had to convince her to forgive the guy. She came back a few weeks later and said that she had testified & she had also forgiven him.
I'm not sure when or where in all this that she became a believer, I think she already was. Her whole family attends FBC. I know her Mom & step-dad and sister attend. Every weekend Rae has her children, she brings them to Church as well. I'm sure I'm missing a few pieces of the story....but I do know that she has been a faithful daughter of our King and now she is receiving a wonderful opportunity. She is getting a new house built by Habitat For Humanity.
Here is where we need help..........She has to put in 300-400 sweat hours before she can move into her house. This work doesn’t have to be done by her alone. Those hours can be worked by ANYONE and she gets credit for that.
