Our guest this week is Terri Merrick!! Y’all are going to love her so much. She’s so encouraging because she gives all the credit to Jesus!! “It’s all about Jesus!” said Merrick.
Terri is the Executive Director and Founder of the Pensacola Dream Center which runs Canopy of Hope in Pensacola, FL. Terri tells us Canopy of Hope was opened to be a safe temporary shelter for women who have been abused, trafficked, and sexually exploited, those homeless, some coming out of jail, and other crises. She tells us how they provide 2-3 three weeks of shelter, love, and counseling to see where these ladies want to go with their lives.
This is SUCH a beauitful conversation because, during their time at Canopy of Hope Terri shares how their team assists the women recover by praying for them and letting the women have a chance to pause, rest and connect with God.
Terri also revealed in this chat that the first step to helping many of these women is by getting them out of their current situation and into a safe place where they can think clearly without fear of harm.
It's so obvious from her joy, but JESUS is the driving factor behind the programs she’s leading. God bless Terri and her team who are helping women transition to more positive lifestyles of self-sufficiency.
