‎“There is hope for each… Every man is made in the image and likeness of God.” -Ven. Fulton Sheen

When I came across these words yesterday, they reminded me of a community I have written about here a number of times that helps people, mostly drug addicts, get their lives back on track.

The Cenacolo website offers a lot of personal testimonials to give you an idea of how the community has helped changed the lives of many young people.

It’s in German, but you can still get the general idea:

It can be frustrating watching a loved one in a seemingly endless cycle of self destructive behavior, but, as Ven. Sheen notes, there’s hope for each. Don’t give up. Keep praying, especially and maybe give the Community a call if you haven’t already.
