Together, Chris and Shalesha have committed their lives to fighting addiction and sharing a message of restoration with those behind bars. They believe no matter how broken someone feels, they are never truly forgotten. Currently, they’re developing a digital ministry, in the process of launching a podcast on Securus and Edovo to bring hope into prisons. To share testimony and the Gospel to those stuck in dark places. Also partnering with Healing of Hearts Ministries in the community, they aim to help turn the “lost” into the “found.” To bridge the gap from prison to true freedom.

“I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak…” - Ezekiel 34:16
