Nicole Persaud
Nicole suffered with depression and an eating disorder as a teen and young adult which led to a suicide attempt early in her life. She also suffered through two serious car accidents and was also faced with the sudden death of her mother. Just before her mother passed, she came to Jesus and her life began to change. Nicole’s second car accident resulted in a concussion, PTSD, many soft tissue injuries and she was left with very limited mobility. Barely able to use a walker, she didn’t ask God for healing, but just told everyone (doctors, nurses, neighbors) about how much Jesus loved them. A few years ago, God revealed a phrase to her “Hard Wire Reset” and this phrase gave Nicole hope that God was going to heal her… a few days later while praising God at her church, she suddenly felt “the fire of God” and her body began shaking… she could walk and run with no pain at all. Nicole says: “I don’t know why He’s done this for me, but I know he can do it for others.”

Belma Vardy
Belma Vardy shares her amazing and true story in the book "Because God Was there". As a young child Belma lived through the brutal and terrifying events that accompanied the end of World War II and the sudden erection of the Berlin Wall, when East was separated from West and families were ripped apart. This story is one of courage, gripping contrasts and is told in remarkable detail. Her journey of recovery demonstrates how God can use our fractured and broken stories to bring healing and hope to others. http://celebrationofdance.com
