Summer Guide

May 2019 - August 2019 • Steelville, MO

“We worked with kids and teens that have been abused in every way imaginable. They are in a place in life where they really close everybody off especially if we tried showing them that we love and care about them. They are convinced that they are at fault for the abuse toward them, and they are unlovable. To prove this to us, they would sometimes cut themselves or lash out in violence toward us and others. I learned how to break down those social walls they built and speak to truth to the root of their problems instead of the initial response. They lost likely did not get in a fight because someone was annoying them. They got in a fight because their dad called them degrading names as a child, or their mom told them they'd never amount to anything. I learned to search for good qualities in them even though they weren't able to see them. Instead of them continuing with the idea that they're selfish and at fault, I could build a relationship with them and show them they are loving toward others and they are needed. They are not at fault for the wrong doing of others. ”
