BriAnna is the kind of young woman that puts everyone else in front of herself… She cares deeply about people! We immediately recognized that about her. And although selflessness is something to be admired, BriAnna’s strength became her greatest weakness. Her life began to spiral out of control because she wasn’t making healthy choices for herself. BriAnna struggled with addiction. Pregnant, afraid, and knowing that she couldn’t turn her life around on her own, she reached out for the help she needed to be free and protect the life within her. We see the bravery and humility it takes to ask for help and applaud her for doing so!
After receiving specialized care for her recovery, BriAnna contacted NBHomes and we moved her in for the remainder of her pregnancy! At the New Beginnings maternity home she completed technical training in dental assisting and prepared for the birth of her son. She also rededicated her life to Jesus and got baptized while still pregnant! Her handsome little guy, named Roman, is a healthy 4 months old now! He giggles and coos all the time, enjoys worship at church, and soaks up the attention of all his adoring NBHomes family. Now that BriAnna is part of the Welcome Home (single moms) housing program she has been able to bond with her son, continue receiving loving support and mentorship, begin a career in dental assisting, and push forward in her recovery while strengthening her relationship with the Lord! BriAnna is an attentive nurturing mama with a heart full of gratefulness. She is enjoying her tiny sanctuary and making the space feel like an inviting home. BriAnna and her son are looking forward to a future full of God's presence!
