How this trip came about...

One of my most recent joys has been co-authoring the book, “Witness”, with Debbie Webb. Free Indeed, Jon Jouvenaux, read “Witness” and decided to use this as their theme for their 2007 tour. As a result, my husband, Mac, and I along with Alan & Lisa Robertson, and their daughter, Alexis, are going to South Africa to share the hope we have in HIM with others! Part of our story---as a testimony to God’s saving grace and power, Mac, was rescued from certain death, both spiritual and physical, from the world of drug and alcohol addiction in 1988. When Mac accepted God’s call, the Father refused to let him stay where he was and started carrying out the work He began in Mac. In 1990, Mac and I, started a recovery program for addicts, alcoholics, and their loved ones. We led this ministry for 15 years until we changed it to Celebrate Recovery, which is designed for anyone with a hurt, hang-up, or habit. You may have escaped a habit or hang-up but no one is exempt from hurts. Mac and I have a new addiction now---seeing changed lives through the power of the Savior at the cross! In His Grace, Mary Owen
