A New Life Through Christ

My name is Pablo Garcia, and I entered Turning Point Men’s Home on March 17, 2025, by the grace and mercy of God. I’m incredibly grateful for this place and the transformation it’s brought into my life.

Before coming to the Home, I never imagined I could function without drugs or alcohol. I thought I needed something in my system just to get through the day. But once I got here and began working, I realized I didn’t need substances anymore. I now wake up each day sober, clear-minded, and feeling good.

It’s a blessing to be trusted with responsibility again— something I thought I had lost forever. 

I was completely lost before coming here. I was living on the streets, relying on my gang ties to survive.

I was caught in a cycle of going in and out of jail, and at the same time, I was going through a divorce.

Those were the darkest moments of my life. I was so low that I attempted suicide—but the rope broke, and I hit the ground. I truly believed I had no purpose, especially after finding out the mother of my children was seeing someone else. 

I lost all hope.

I Know God Was Looking Out For Me...
I had begun planning another suicide attempt when my spouse called me out of the blue.

She talked to me about going to a recovery home. I made a few calls that led nowhere, and I started to think it just wasn’t meant to happen. But then I called Turning Point.

I’ll never forget that moment— after I got the information, Luis, the Men’s Home supervisor, simply asked, “What time are you coming in?” I hadn’t even made the decision yet. I started making excuses, but the mother of my children kept encouraging me, and that’s when I realized: I needed this.

She dropped me off at the Home, and since then, everything I thought was lost has started coming back.

My relationship with my children and their mother is being restored. But most importantly, my relationship with God has been healed—and without Him, none of this would be possible.   I thank Jesus for giving me this chance to change my life.

And I also want to thank every person who supports this ministry. Because of your prayers and generosity, a place like Turning Point is here for guys like me.

Today, I can say I am saved!
