From Trauma to Triumph. From Silence to Purpose. A monthly devotional workshop and community gathering held in Downtown St. Cloud, drawing from the memoir "Sudan Fire USA ICE" by Emmanuel Modi.
Join us for free food, fun, fellowship, and supportive community events designed to uplift families and individuals in St. Cloud.
Explore books, audio content, and visual resources from the ministry.
Each month focuses on a core theme designed to equip individuals, youth, and families with spiritual anchors, emotional wisdom, and practical habits.
Breaking the silence of trauma and mental health battles. Discovering that a diagnosis or past failure does not define your future.
How to keep your spiritual and emotional anchor steady when external circumstances, health, or environments shift drastically.
Harnessing visual art, song creation, and quiet writing as divine tools for processing deep trauma and finding internal balance.
Replacing bad habits step-by-step, taking radical personal responsibility, and building physical and spiritual endurance.
Setting healthy online boundaries, avoiding public reactions during crisis, and choosing quiet, offline healing.
Commemorate your healing journey. Formally receive a diploma or certificate. A final communal commissioning where participants are sent forth as ambassadors for healing.
Every monthly gathering is structured into an intentional 80-minute interactive format designed for fellowship, learning, and safe table sharing.
Light refreshments, music, and casual connection before the session begins.
Teaching on the monthly theme drawing direct lessons from Sudan Fire USA ICE.
Small-group reflection, guided journaling, and safe-space sharing with table leaders.
An encouraging monthly challenge and closing prayer for the weeks ahead.
We meet monthly from March through August. Everyone is welcome to attend individual sessions or complete the entire 6-month journey.
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
(Journaling materials & light refreshments provided)
