We are blessed to have Mike Christensen join ReIGNITE Hope. Mike
and Stacey and their family served inseveral countries in Central Asia
particularly Turkey. In a questionnaire one year, Mike said:
His goal "is to live exuberant lives of faith and repentance that
glorify God by loving Him and others through prevailing prayer,
active service and making disciples."
He's doing just that at ReIGNITE Hope. He attended the June class
and recently became a certified welder so he can lead a team of
instructors. Even after just a short time, the students are already
trusting him to share their life stories and struggles.
One such example that Mike shared is "a young man who shared
that his mom died at the age of 2 and his father threw him in a bag
and fled from Korea to Canada. His first incarceration was at the age
of 12. He has been clean off drugs for 2 months, homeless at times,
working all night as security in downtown, but hoping for a different
life."
This young man is now a certified welder and looking to start his
career as a welder. But more importantly, the spiritual and life
lessons he learned will stay with him for an eternity.
