Finding Strength to Stay Sober
Jon Armstrong now helps others suffering from addiction at the very Salvation Army facility that helped him turn his life around.
By Brandon Tucker Faith & Friends“I hit rock bottom and ended up on the street in Port Coquitlam, B.C., where I met my girlfriend,” Jon Armstrong says. “We spent five years in Abbotsford on the streets, living in a tent, because back then I was unfit for shelters.” But then he met The Salvation Army. Now, as an employee at The Salvation Army’s Centre of Hope in Abbotsford, Jon uses his story and experiences to better assist those who come to the centre for help overcoming their issues. “If I can show even one person that it’s possible, that’s all I need.”
