MENTORING CLIENT TESTIMONIES
The testimonies below are all by real clients or family members of people we serve at Lighthouse International. Unlike the sources and their false and misleading comments to the Daily Mail article, these testimonies can be backed up with evidence. These are all people who wanted to have their voices heard given the malicious falsehoods put out about Lighthouse and the good work we do.

This is why we do this work! To help people overcome the barriers and obstacles in their lives, not through gimmicks or ‘magic pill’ or wishful thinking, but through involvement and commitment that someone invests in their own growth and development, time, money, and effort, always starting with putting the human being and relationships first.
Powerful testimonies. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing these experiences. It takes courage to speak up and share what we actually went through but also to dig deep and do the work of appreciating mentorship. The very real experiences we go through and on the back of that, the chance to optimise our lives but NEVER without sharing our hearts and facing real vulnerability.
It was truly heartwarming to hear from you all. It’s important that there is balance, this is the best place I have ever known to help me heal and it also the most difficult work I will ever do. There are people who want all the good, all the fruits and don’t want to work for it. Then trolls are born. But that will NEVER stop our work!
Reading through these testimonies again, it is inspiring and very moving to hear of the relationships that these people are building with their mentors. Having met a few of them, and seeing their growth through the time they have been here, it is wonderful to see.
I really value them standing up and being willing to share their views in the tolls, standing up to tyranny and showing unity, thank you all so much.
We are growing in strength with Christ as our rock.
It’s been inspiring to read through these very personal and real experiences. I can understand why there will have been those who may have been hesitant or scared to share things online because of the attacks they’ve seen against us. We do, however, need to stand up to tyranny and online abuses. Speaking personally I’ve learnt that we do not only need the personal strength and courage to do this, but also the community of people who are willing to stick by us no matter how tough it gets. This is why we’ve been able to weather this storm and earn our stripes to help others.
God bless the strong men and women sharing their honest testimony here, not only affirming the character and competence of the Lighthouse community, but also demonstrating their own capability for finding their voice, standing up and sharing it. These people were able to, with the guidance of their mentors at Lighthouse, grow through what they are going through. Rather than languish in darkness (or worse, throwing shade on others) they are shining their light ever brighter
