finding HOPE
“I was scared for me and my children.
Never sure what the next day would bring.
I was in a downhill spiral and I desperately
needed help. “
Jacob’s Well is a place
where single women and their children
can find hope and restoration for their lives.

I want to sincerely thank all the donors that support Jacob’s Well. Because of your generosity, I have been given a second chance in life. Coming into this program, I was overwhelmed and uncertain about the future, but from day one, the love and support we received has been nothing short of life changing. Not only was I provided with a safe and stable place to live, but I was also given all the tools we needed to begin again. From household essentials to life skills training, everything was here, and it gave me hope when I had none.
One of the greatest blessings came when I received a car through the program. It may seem like a small thing, but it completely changed my life; opening up opportunities for work, and quality time with my 3 children. More than the material support, though, it’s the emotional encouragement and restored faith that has meant the most. The staff and community have poured into me and my children with compassion, strength, and belief in our potential.
Today, I feel hopeful and truly grateful. Thank you for believing in families like mine, your kindness is making a lasting difference.

Before I came to Jacob’s Well, I was completely broken. I had lost my home, my job and was fighting to regain custody of my son. I know without a doubt God brought JW into my life. They welcomed me with open arms and showed me love and surrounded me with immense support. At any given moment If I needed guidance, prayers, or just a pep talk, someone on staff was always available. They have shown a type of love I had never experienced in my life.
Since last year, I have regained custody of my son, started a career and continue this beautiful path with God for myself and my son.
I am so very grateful for all of the supporters and volunteers that believe in this program. And above all, grateful God gave me the opportunity to come here and experience the healing and opportunities I have been given to begin a new life. Without Jacob’s Well and this staff, supporters, volunteers, I’m not sure where my son and I would be right now. The Lord is truly woven into every part of this program and we will be forever grateful.

What a wonderful day this was! For about 8 years I got lost in a horrible drug addiction. In 2013 I heard a voice telling me that I was not too lost for God to save me. After getting clean and sober I knew I needed more.
In 2014 God opened doors that I thought were impossible. God opened the doors of JACOB’S WELL. For two years I was surrounded by love, love from my family, love from strangers, and most importantly the love of Christ.
This was my graduation day! I had completed the 2 year program. I will forever be grateful for my family, Barbara and Kevin Williar, and all the sweet people that took time to love me and show me how to find and build a relationship with God. It is hard to be this transparent, but I have to give God the glory, glory, for all he has done for me!

I’m so grateful for my time at Jacob’s Well and the connections I’ve made with resources and community. The progress and improvements I have been able to make since coming to Jacobs Well are remarkable.
For the first time in a very long time, I feel like I’m able to look forward to my future and the future of my son.
More than anything I am grateful for the opportunity I’ve had to grow in my relationship with Christ and the bond I’ve developed with my son.
Thank you so much for your continued support as we grow into the best versions of ourselves.
