My story is filled with broken pieces, terrible choices and ugly truths. It also has a major comeback, peace in my soul and a grace that saved my life. What a people who have this book say: "Cindylou's story of trauma, addiction and brokenness to healing and transformation is remarkable and inspiring. I love to share her story with others because it is such a dramatic testimony of God's grace and redemptive power, from addict to missionary... May you be awed and blessed as you read the pages of her journey to wholeness." - Nancy Riegert "I well the day I met Cindylou ... even though she had been through great difficulties in her life, I could tell, underneath the sadness was a gentle spirit. Her life change is one of the miracles I have seen first hand...through God's grace and mercy she was changed inside and out." - Lynn Castle "Together we have journeyed with Cindylou for the past 15 years - for the good, the bad and the ugly. This book tells it all, and in the end God is lifted up and glorified through the transformed life of this child of God. Read on and be blessed." - Don & Monika Heron Cindylou Barclay now lives in Zambia mentoring young people in a provincial town, bringing her skills and experience in trauma healing as well as teaching art and crafts that they could use to express their self-worth, harness their creativity and improve their lives.
