A Ministry Born
from Redemption
Dr. Pamela experienced 3 sexual abuses starting at age 5 and many other horrific tragedies as she learned that drugs could numb that pain by age 9. The pain led to 35 years of addiction and landed her in prison for 18 months in 2010. Pamela tried many programs prior to her incarceration to no avail. While in prison, the Lord spoke to her and said, “The only thing that will change your old mindset is the Word of God, memorize a scripture a day.” She said, “I am on it” and the healing process began. This 18 months in prison was her time of solitude to come back to her spiritual roots and was where the Lord said to her, “This is your college campus, your training ground of preparation for what I have planned for you”. Pamela has received many earned certifications in different fields of Biblical Specialties, Counseling, Life Coaching and is an Ordained Chaplain, along with Transformational Leadership. She now has the God-given mandate to reach back to the lost and forgotten world within the gates. She has been drug and alcohol free since Feb. 24, 2010.
We have ministered to women and men throughout Georgia since 2012, and other states, as well as 40 prisons in Uganda and Kenya for the last 6 years. We are in the UK and have the open door in Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Canada soon. Through Holy Spirit, we bring healing of mind, body, spirit and soul to thousands through the “I See ME Free” Mentorship Program. This is a Holy Spirit breathed program, creating a cross pollination throughout the country and the world with a two-edged sword approach, mentor and mentee receiving healing and becoming equipped to further the Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven.
