MISSION

The mission of Redeeming Life Ministries is to help meet the need that hurting women have for a psychologically safe environment where they can become empowered and learn to deal with the impact that emotional and spiritual distress has had on their lives. Our professionally trained counselors are spiritually mature and use the Word of God and prayer in their counseling and apply biblical priciples to life application.

Some of the areas addressed are:

• domestic violence
• troubled marriages
•  rebellious children
•  financial instability
•  health challenges
•  loss and grief
•  substance abuse
•  failed relationships
• unfulfilled dreams.

GOAL

The primary goal of Redeeming Life Ministries is to empower abused, broken and disenfranchised women by helping them to become confident, competent and whole--emotionally, physically and spiritually through faith-based individual and group counseling, workshops, empowerment seminars and retreats.

Another goal is to help women discover their God-given gifts and talents and to learn how to use them in creative and productive ways that will increase their sense of self-worth and achievement.

No matter what challenges women have endured in their lives, we know that they can be redeemed. They can reclaim the lives that God had originally ordained for them. If they are willing to believe that God can help turn around any situation and that He will work out all things together for their good, they will be set free from fear and hopelessness. As they take the necessary steps they must to recover, they will find that through counseling, support and God's guidance, past stumbling blocks can be turned into stepping stones for a more successful future. These women shall be made whole in their minds, spirits and functioning to live life more abundantly.

 Redeeming Life Ministries believes, "For nothing is impossible with God"    Luke 1:37.

[TITUS II MOTHERS]

Christian Mentoring

Encouraging Women’s Personal and Spiritual Growth through Biblical Principles, Intercessory Prayer, and Christian Fellowship

A PRAYER FOR THOSE WE MENTOR

 "Since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding.  We pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way; bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light"
Colossians 1:9-12.

Intercessory Prayer

Our Titus II Mothers (Christian women mentors) respond to your prayer requests by offering Biblical wisdom along with intercessory prayer. We also desire to share our personal experiences - both victories and defeats - in order to help others who are searching for answers or needing encouragement. See Prayer Requests page. 

Bible Based Mentoring - The Need is Great

Mentoring is a very popular concept today, and why not? It's scriptural, it's our nature to nurture, and there is so much negative influence from the world. Our young women are not being taught to value godliness. In fact, many of our senior women have been persuaded away from the godly principles that were once foundational in every American home. It is our desire to be godly influences in a world that doesn't often promote moral or ethical standards.

The Problem with Mentoring

Titus II Mothers have a burden for women because of the many stressful demands that are placed on them in today's culture, and we desire to be Godly influences in a world that doesn't often promote moral or ethical standards. Mentoring takes time, and our schedules are already so full. How can we carve out enough time to establish meaningful mentoring relationships?

The Solution

Through the Redeeming Life Ministries, God is bringing together a wonderful collection of mature Christian women who desire to be like the Godly mentors mentioned in Titus 2:3-5. These women come from different backgrounds, have different careers, and draw from a broad range of experiences. It is our desire to offer young women encouragement, affirmation, and edification as they face the many difficulties of being the virtuous women God has called them to be.

 HEALING HURTING HEARTS

In May 2013, the Lord blessed Minister Childs with the opportunity to attend a MORNING DEVOTIONAL at CURE INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic where the Lord has planted her to be aout "my Father's business." She met Elba Lopez, the Spiritual Director of CURE in Santo Domingo, through the church they both attend, INGLESIA BUENAS NUEVAS (CHURCH OF GOOD NEWS). She was recruited as a Volunteer writer to interview CURE MOTHERS who have children with physical deformities, and to write their "stories."

BELOW: Minister Mariah Childs (left) and Elba Lopez, Spiritual Director at CURE INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL in Santo Domingo, DR.

Minister Childs is an anointed writer who uses her talent to often be the "voice" of people who are suffering, disadvantaged and disenfranchised throughout the world not able to "speak up" for themselves by writing and publishing their "stories." She believed that CURE MOMS have powerful personal "stories" to share regarding the suffering, pain and hardships that they have been forced to endure because of their children's physical deformities. She also believed that  by sharing their "stories," they would be able to reach other mothers in despair and not knowing what to do or where to take their children for medical care. The message of CURE MOMS was unanimous and simple, "Do not accept "No" or "It's too late." "With the help of God and the dedicated doctors at CURE, "miracles" are happening every day, and lives and families are being transformed."

She began by interviewing 5 mothers after the MORNING DEVOTIONAL SERVICE at CURE in Santo Doming May 1, 2013, and interviewed another 5 on May 24 th.Their "stories" were filled with faith, hope and determination to find healing for their children no matter how dificult.

"It was such a rewarding experience, according to Minister Childs, to listen these mothers freely share their fears, sadness, hope and trust in God's faithfulness to heal their children," shares Minister Childs. The journeys that these mothers have been on with their children with little money, have been almost impossible. But with sheer determination, faith and trust in God, they beat the odds agains them! Their "stories" will be reminders of God's faithfulness to them and serve to inspire other mothers of physically disabled children who are feeling hopeless and do not know where to turn that "with God and CURE all things are possible."

On May 17, 2013, God blessed Minister Childs with the priviledge to preach a sermonette at the CURE MORNING DEVOTIONAL to help encourage and strengthen the faith of CURE MOMS and to increase their trust and faith in God to heal and do "great and mighty works" through Jesus Christ today, just as he did thousands of years ago. Volunteers from Michigan, USA were in attendance too and witnessed the mighty works of CURE doctors and Almighty God.

CURE INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL has certainly been a "Godsend" to these and countless other children throughout the Dominican Republic. It is wonderful to be able to witness firsthand the changes that have occured in the lives of children and their families as a result of the surgeries that have been performed by CURE doctors for children with club feet, dislocated knees, cleft lips to name a few. The following is a little glimpse into the doors of CURE HOSPITAL in Santo Domingo, DR. from the hearts of CURE MOMS.

CURE HOSPITAL INTERNATIONAL

SANTO DOMINGO, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

CURE HOSPITAL in Santo Domingo is a hospital specializing in performing surgerical procedures for children born with physical deformities and disabilities. The hospital celebrated the mothers of its patients throughout the month of May in a variety of special ways to let each one know how valuable she is for the role she is playing as a mother to a "special" needs child. Other innovative initiatives will be forthcoming.

A common thread that stitches the mothers together is "each mother's belief that at CURE her child is receiving the best care of any other place she has gone to try and get medical care for her child in Santo Domingo."

Another aspect of the Santo Domingo based CURE HOSPITAL that is held in high regard by the mothers that were interviewed is the caring and respectful atmosphere that permeates throughout the whole hospital from staff, nurses, and doctors towards the children and their parents. Here, each child feels loved and accepted. Like other CURE HOSPITALS throughout the world, the total environment is "welcoming"--a place where "everyone" is valued and lovingly treated like a member of the CURE HOSPITAL"family."

All of the mothers interviewed are strong advocates for their children and

refused to accept the words "no" or "it's too late" as the final answer. Regardless of their limited economic situations or their ability to access the types of medical care and treatment that their children desperately needed, they each "pressed on" to find solutions for their children's special medical needs. This in turn, led each of them to the CURE HOSPITAL in Santo Domingo, whether they came by way of a referral from a pediatrician, or suggestion of a friend, or staff member here. According to a few mothers interviewed, a staff member at CURE Santo Domingo, Luz, seems to be a shining light of God's intervention that has led several mothers here to CURE to get hep they could not find elsewhere for their children.

It is wonderful for Minister Childs to witness that the patients and their families are treated with the utmost care, concern, and respect, regardless of their ability to pay. A genuineChrist-like SPIRIT radiates on the smiling faces and in the attitudes of staff. The patients are made to feel welcome and special regardless of the physical infirmities that brought them to seek refuge at CURE, or their social or economic status. Truly the Spirit of God is in this place.
