Julia's Story

Julia Jakus had a very chaotic childhood that was filled with pain and abuse. Julia felt very lonely growing up and became depressed as child. She later developed an eating disorder, became addicted to drugs and had suicidal thoughts. She was in and out of psychiatric hospitals and treatment programs for many years.

Julia lacked hope in life and was afraid of what was going to happen to her. One day Julia decided that she was no longer going to try to do life her own way because it wasn't working, she became aware of her need for God. Today Julia has found hope, freedom and a new life. She knows that her purpose in life is to tell her story and help others, to tell them that no matter how broken they feel they can have hope restored and a new life.
