Transformation is our desire and goal at the Oak Creek, Wis., Corps, and we’re blessed over and over again as we see God changing lives. Recently we had the privilege of enrolling three new senior soldiers who’ve joined our congregation. They, like many others, have decided to make life changes, turning from addiction and unhealthy lives and finding healing and transformation in Christ at the Adult Rehabilitation Center (ARC).
Partnering with the Milwaukee, Wis., ARC, our corps has had the opportunity to walk alongside men as they graduate from the ARC program and continue a life of recovery and holistic healing truly found through Jesus.
“I am finding truth and love. The reason why we are here on earth is first to trust and love our almighty God with all our hearts; to treat others with love, kindness and respect; to give back the love and knowledge I receive,” said Martin Beltran, one of the new soldiers on being part of the life of the corps. “I’m finding myself and who I really am, living for God and not myself. Love is an amazing thing, and when we learn to live and love the way God does, we will be sure to find love, gratefulness, happiness and peace.”
There is no wrong door to walk through when you enter the Oak Creek Corps. We want to welcome you and help you experience love and joy. Our congregation believes in connection to each other and Christ. We welcome everyone and want to continue to continue to grow in faith and point others to Jesus.
