Support Kate's Journey—She’s Breaking FREE!

Donation protected
Our precious 15-year-old daughter, Kate, has faced so much suffering over the last several years. Recently, she made a brave step to admit that she needs help to break free from addictions and life-controlling issues. She will be spending 12-15 months in a Christian residential program for teenage girls. Besides continuing her academic education, Kate will receive love, discipleship, and life skills training to become more mentally sound, emotionally balanced, socially adjusted, and spiritually alive.

Our family is grieving, but we also have so much hope!

We believe chains will be broken, and Kate will emerge healed, whole, and free!

YOU CAN HELP
Rehabilitation is not a line item our family had in their budget. The cost of Kate’s care over the next year + is staggering. Here is the breakdown:

At least $30,000 is owed by the family over the course of the year.

  • $2,100 per month for 12-15 months.
  • $5,500 for enrollment (DONE!)

If you would like to support our family directly—that’s this GoFundMe! You can also Venmo Julie at @Julie-Garner-48
Every dollar will go directly to covering Kate’s care over the next year.

Kate will also need to raise additional money for her own support through fundraisers and activities. We'll keep you posted on that!

PLEASE PRAY
We also need prayer support! The God of angel armies is on our side. Let Him know you’re ready to go to battle for Kate. And let us know, too! A list of weekly prayer requests will be posted on her Caring Bridge site.

SHE'S THERE AND ALREADY THRIVING!
She arrived at the facility on November 22, and God used people like you to provide every cent we needed for that day.

Now, we trust Him to provide for us month after month for her recovery. He owns the cattle on a thousand hills! This is nothing for Him.

Love, Julie & Dan & Jude
