“A little something about Ben and the Steps Team, My son Brandon joined the Steps Program in 2014-2015 he was having some issues in school. Ben suggested Brandon come visit the program in hopes to move him in the right direction! And yes it worked! Brandon has done a complete turn around and is now a senior and graduates this year. Brandon did not believe in God but now he does. Now that the churches are not in session because of the pandemic, he watches Sundays live through the internet. The things the program taught Brandon are amazing! I believe that every youth troubled or not should visit the Steps Program!”

“One situation in particular, I really needed somebody and Steps was the only place that I could think of. I started talking to Ben and he asked if he could pray for me. At the time I was like, ‘pray for me, what is that gonna do?’ But what Ben did for me, what happened, really kinda changed my life.”

“I love Steps because Ben and Ruth and the volunteers speak life into the kids. They show them by example how much Jesus loves each and every person. They show the kids that there is a great future ahead for them, that they matter are valuable. Ben and Ruth reach out to show the kids there is hope and a purpose for their lives through Jesus.”

Steps is all about loving people where they’re at. They see the greatness in people and call it out so that they can live a life that truly fulfills all that they were destined to.

“I started at Steps being this shy girl that only talked to a close friend of mine. Then once I continued to attend, I got to learn about God and meet new friends along the way. Then God became part of my life as I began to sing and read bible verses. I feel more connected to God than I ever did. God has helped me in my personal life just by attending Steps. I have gotten to know that I should love myself as I love someone else. Also to know that God will always be there for me when I’m in hard times. I have had some hard times in my home life, with my mom leaving when I needed her most. The people at Steps are the people I trusted with the information I have talked to them about. God will always be at my side every step of the way in my life and in my heart, no matter what happens. God is always an important role in my life, and I can pray to about anything. I always have a bible close to me so I can be close to Him. I love that I went to Steps. I never thought I never had a connection to God before until now. God is someone that I now do need in my life and won’t ever have Him leave me.”

Steps is like a family (and that isn’t just because Ruth and Ben are my family). Everyone who walks through the doors of Steps is loved like family.

“I tried to take my life 6 times. I started cutting when I felt unloved. Then I tried kill myself at my school, I tried to hang myself. Steps helped me a lot. They prayed for me when I was going through a rough time. I like it. It’s just nice to know that people are caring about me, praying for me. I believe that me not dying is a sign that God’s saying its not time for me to go.”
