In this episode I speak with a friend of mine Cindylou Barclay who shares about her life transformation through her journey with Christ. She shares about her life growing up and the challenges she faced with a sense inferiority. After a destructive marriage in her 40's, she turned to alcohol to cope with her wounds. As a divorced Mother, she was spiraling downhill and her her health was being severely compromised. She was labelled with various mental disorders on top of that and was sent in and out of treatment centres and hospitals.

Despite the life threatening health issues due to the alcohol toxicity, something inside her kept her alive. She knew there was a higher power working through her. She was invited to a Church in Waterloo, ON where discovered Jesus and fell in love. She devoted her life to serving the Lord and developing an intimate relationship with him. Her journey has helped her see her past in fresh eyes and how God was there all along to keep her alive for His purpose for her.

Today, Cindylou is taking more care of her health and honouring the body and following her calling in missions. She has now completed several missions trips in Africa. At the age of 50, she discovered a talent in the arts and has used that to promote God and to troubled youth in the less fortunate areas. She has been blessed with incredible experiences and watching how God uses her to transform people's lives. She is partnered with SIM Canada, which is a Missions based organization and are recently developing an arts mission program that she is taking part of this year.
