Blanca's First Encounter with God
In His Hands
The logo for Blanca's Ministry and the oucomes from her first encounter and spiritual vision with the Lord, Jesus.
After being battered and left on a cold winter night, she called to Jesus.
She saw herself being scooped by a giant hand. Felt instant warmth and sound sleep till morning.
"It felt like a bed of feathers"
who we are
The Beginning
At a tender age the enemy has attacked us, from molestation, rape, death and even suicide.
After a life lived like hell, the Lord brought us together in 2004 during a very difficult time in both our lives. We were lost and on our way to the grave, literally. We met in July 2004, dated for 6 short months and married Jan 2005. Both single parents struggling to survive.
"Sex, drugs and rock n roll" had nothing on us. When we met, hell rejoiced. But little did it know that God had other plans. Gen 50:20
The Wilderness
We were two broken people our souls fragmented, full of hurt, rejection, hate, rage and infirmities, just to name a few. We had the same perversions, the same wants, the same sins. We cheered each other on and dared each other to out do. We were our worst enemies yet we both helped each other keep satisfied.
At the verge of death several times, full of everything this world offers we kept going deeper and deeper into darkness. Street, gangs, clubs, anything to do with drugs, alcohol, sexual perversions, and many other things. There is NOTHING anyone can say to us that will shock us. If it was something of this world, we have done it, been around it or grew up in it. But Jesus had other plans. See the word of God says that we overcome him, (our enemy) by the power of the blood of the Lamb(Jesus) and the power of our testimony(how Jesus changed us) Revelation 12:11
The Surrender
After 13 years of marriage, at the verge of divorce and completely beat down by the world, Blanca surrendered her life to Christ. She called Terry and told him; "with you or without you, I am following Christ. I can no longer do life without Him. Do you want to do the same?". Terry stood there staring at her and said; "Yes". That was the beginning of their journey to get where they are now.
They currently live in Port Charlotte, FL. Home Inspectors in the area, blue collar workers. The family has currently grown to 7 grandchildren and numerous in-laws.
Their journey to grow their relationship with Christ and the deliverance of the chains they were tied to, have led them to start this charity called "In His Hands". With the Love of Christ they are free and spreading the good news of what Jesus has done in their lives, helping those who are in the same place they once were.
