FRANCISCUS
My name is Franciscus, I am 33 years old, and I would like to share my inspiring story of resilience and transformation with you.
For more than two decades of my life, I struggled with addictions to cannabis and cocaine, homelessness, detention, and a turbulent relationship with my father.
But my journey is a powerful testimony to the transforming power of Jesus Christ and His ability to change lives.
When I turned 29, something remarkable happened. I found the inner strength to radically change my life, leave my addictions behind, and turn to a new path filled with hope and redemption.
My baptism marked a turning point in my life — I founded Acts of Faith, and since then, I have been living in the fullness of faith and the grace of the Lord.
I believe that my life experiences and personal journey can encourage young people in similar situations to find their way to God and healing.
No matter what obstacles you face, I truly believe there is always a chance to change — a new beginning is always possible.
As a reborn Christian, I know that I carry the power to deeply impact young people through my honest story of struggle, victory, and spiritual renewal.
I am living proof of the transforming power of Jesus — because in Him, there is healing, hope, and freedom!
Blessings,
Franciscus Fens
QUIRINDA
Hello, my name is Quirinda. I am 35 years old and the mother of a teenage daughter.
In our family, we place King Jesus first, and we try to live our lives according to His values — though it’s a journey of ups and downs!
In my past, it often felt like Jesus was miles away from me.
I grew up feeling unworthy and, sadly, ended up in relationships with the wrong kind of men — men who did not treat me with kindness.
In fact, I’ve experienced domestic violence that nearly cost me my life. During those dark times, it seemed like King Jesus wasn’t for me. But now I realize: He never left my side. He always had His protective hand on my shoulder and gave me ways to escape the painful reality — even if just by helping me shift my thoughts.
King Jesus healed me and gave me strength.
This is my story in a nutshell, and I warmly invite you to discover how King Jesus can be present in your life too.
He has an incredible power to heal and comfort, and I truly believe — He is ready for you, too.
Blessings,
Quirinda
PETER
Hello, my name is Peter, and I’d like to take you on an incredible journey — one that turned my entire life upside down. I grew up in a non-believing home, surrounded by the darkness of unbelief.
But everything changed one night when, at just 11 years old, I woke up to a blinding light filling my bedroom. It was a moment I will never forget.
That unexplainable light stirred in me a deep hunger to read the Bible, even though I didn’t yet understand its meaning. Around that time, I also began experiencing strange things — like seeing double fingers on my own hands and practicing the laying on of hands, both on myself and on friends. This was only the beginning of something far greater. But as so often happens in life, we can drift into darkness without even realizing it. That’s what happened to me.
I became entangled in the occult and eventually reached the so-called “status” of Reiki Master. As I opened myself up to dark spiritual forces, a sinister voice spoke to me, telling me to leave my family — claiming my mission there was “complete.”
That moment marked the beginning of a long period of chaos and suffering...
This is just a glimpse of my incredible journey.
If you would like to hear more, I’m available to share my full testimony at schools, clinics, and church communities.
Blessings,
Peter
MONA
My name is Mona, and my life has been a gripping journey of pain, survival, and redemption.
I grew up not knowing my father, and my childhood was far from normal — marked by violence and abuse.
As a teenager, I became rebellious and started using soft drugs. After divorcing my ex-husband, I spiraled even further downward.
At age 35, I became addicted to cocaine and eventually ended up in forced prostitution. I became a poly-substance user, and my drug use seemed endless. But on August 8, 2008, I made a radical decision to break free from all addictive substances.
Even after that, I was still surrounded by the wrong people, but in 2016, my life took a turn when I met my now-husband, Peter. Our relationship, however, took an unexpected twist when we got involved in the occult — a dark path that nearly destroyed our marriage. Thankfully, I found my way back to the light through repentance and baptism. For the longest time, I felt nothing when people spoke of a "father figure."
Now, I can proudly say: I have a Papa! I share my story in the hope that others in similar situations may find hope, help, and new insight — to be spared from the suffering I once endured. This is why I joined Acts of Faith.
Blessings,
Mona
