My name is Gage Moss. I am 34 years old and I've lived at the Wingard Home since August of last year and still currently reside here. Living here has given me the opportunity to get a job, pay off over $8,000 with of tickets, and renew my license. The ministry helped me gain my current employment and gave me a vehicle once I renewed my license. I've worked more since I've lived here than I have in my life before I came to the Wingard Home. I'm treated like a human being and not a convicted felon. I've been given the opportunity to grow in my faith in Jesus Christ openly and offer my testimony to others while showing His love to the world. This ministry has given me a platform that I can be a better version of myself for God and others.
