My name is Jeremy and I’m 32 years old. I was born and raised in Southern California, and have lived in Nebraska since 2013. A lot of people ask me why in the world I would move to Nebraska from California, and the reasons are complicated and misguided. Now I believe there is more powerfully simple reason for my move: God wanted me to come to Open Door Mission.
I have always had a strong relationship with God, but in the last nine months that relationship has grown even stronger. I have learned that I am not the perfect person I always thought I was. I now realize that I’ve spent a lot of time justifying my actions, making excuses, and placing blame on others.
Going through the New Life Recovery Program at Open Door Mission really opened my eyes, and I’m thankful that God brought me across the country for this.
