FRESH START

Updated: Apr 26, 2022

Welcome to our newly created website for 2022. I'm so grateful for your prayers, love and support as our little charity that could gets a fresh start.


Life shifted when my husband, Tracey Leach, suddenly passed away from a horrible rare disease called NMO also known as Devic's Disease in September 2021. We had been living and serving in Northern California for over four years. Tracey and I shared in ministry for many years. The "US" quickly shifted to a "ME."


God called me home to rural Illinois so I could grieve and catch my breath. I loaded my pickup truck with three dogs and traveled from California to Illinois sobbing the entire way. Jesus took my wheel. I told God that I couldn't serve anymore. My broken heart didn't have anything to give. God wrapped his loving arms around me and bottled my tears. I took several months to be still and sit in the sorrow. You have to go through it to get through it.


Springtime is a time of renewal. God healed my broken heart. He encouraged me to slowly step back into ministry loving on the addicted, broken and lost. Yes, my passion is my purpose. I've answered the call to serve. Thank you again to family and friends who lifted me. I'm blessed by the best. We serve a faithful God who's always on time.


Keep On Serving,

Jaxs
