My wife and children suffered greatly from my reckless choices, and I was spiraling deeper into darkness. Everything changed one fateful night when I stumbled drunk into a raging river. As I nearly drowned, I cried out to God in desperation, and He miraculously saved me - both from the waters and from my sinful life. That experience broke me completely. I went to Calvary Chapel Tonj, repented of my sins, and surrendered my life to Jesus, declaring before the congregation that I would never return to Satan's darkness.
