I am a 25 year old wife and mother of 3 beautiful children. I have seeking employment  for months and regardless of how many applications I have put in or interviews I've gone on no one will hire due to my past and the record that now follows me. My husband is in a program called work experience due to disabilities, and will not be getting paid this month because he missed three days last month due to me having surgery and a meeting with our son's therapist for his autism. I really don't know where else ot turn when I have no income. I have already signed up for welfare to keep us above water until I find a job, but that isn't helping , because they aren't giving us anything unless we complete a certain number of hours a month prior to recieving any help. My bills aren't going to stop coming and I can't hardly afford to buy diapers for my sons or put gas in my car, not to mention we are running out of food. I have away to take care of and get everything ,but the money for bills. I am at my wits end and have thought of everything I can do to make this situation better for my kids. I am scared that I am going to lose my home most of all. I am really ashamed of myself because my children didn't ask to be here nor apart of the struggle they are now in. If there is anyone who can help us  in anyway my family willbe forever grateful. I won't sit here and make false promises to repay money, because I don't now when I would/will be able to repay anyone. I just hope someone here will hear my cry and plea for help, and find it in their heart to help us in our time of need. It will be a blessing to our family, and in return our God will pour out an abundance on you and your family for living in the way he wants us to. I may not have the finances necessary to survive in our economy, but there is always someone worst off than I am so I give what I can and thank God for what we do have, which is our health, lfie, love, a real family, and most of all GOD!                 
 

My life is so dysfunctional lately. I am currently recieiving some government assistance, which I and my husband have to jump through overwhelming hoops to even think about getting help. Today, I was notified by our case worker that we wouldn't be receiving our check for the second month since our last son was born a month early on New Years. Where do I start?. For starters I got laid off of my job in July of last year, and found out that I wasn't even eligible for unemployment. I was 3 1/2 months pregnant with my my third child, and just found out that my one year old was autistic and needed therapy, we already knew that our four year old had adhd. My husband a could never both be employed due to the fact that we couldn't afford childcare for two children. Then in November I was sideswiped by a Charlotte Areal Transit Bus, whic sent me into labor prematurely at 7 1/2 months, up into that time I had been working from home to make ends meet and praticipate in the upcoming holidays. Needless to say I ended up in and out of the hospital and on complete bed rest through the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's holiday, which by God's grace is when my son was born thankfully he didn't have to fight near as hard as other babies born early to survive. We have been without a vehicle since November 2007,and although we applied for a welfare check to help us stay above water until the baby was born, my husband found another job, and I could hopefully return to work myself. We have only received about 600 dollars from welfare since November 2007, Which leaves us at risk to be lose our home and everything we arew trying to have as well as the possible loss of  our children. Charlotte, NC is one of the worst cities to live in they don't even follow their own laws . I have felt like just giving up several times such as the times when I have been forced to walk in the rain with my children just to do what is required of me and my husband to get help. I NEED A JOB DESPERATELY!!!! I need to start wearing a sign saying will work don't want to be a bump got a job etc. I am getting blessing daily,but I don't know how I'll keep them without a job.

No we are not supposed to sit around and wait on God to handle things, we are supposed to be resourceful and try even when it seems that things aren't being accomplished. He is our father but we are supposed to step out on faith and make away out of no way with his help and guidance. I really know that this sistuation you and yochurch are going through will get better.

I sure will pray for your church. I wish I could offer more but I am not financially stable. Have you all thought about hosting bake sales , yards sales, fish fries, bbq etc. to help to earn money to for the church which you could put into a fund for the church to help out others in need once the money builds up and your church is out of the woods.

I ama 25 year old mother of three that needs someone to give me a chance to make something of myself for me and my kids. I have looking for a job at a salon in Charlotte, NC for about six weeks. My children are 4,23 months, and 11 weeks, and I need to work in order to provide for them without needing government assistance which isn't enough to get by. I have been on many interviews and yet nothing. I have a record which I am sure has alot to do with the fact that no one has hired me yet, since I applied at jobs in various area other than cosmetology because I just need to work to make money!

I was 19 when I was convicted of a felon. Weather I did it or not I am the one that payed the debt for it which doesn't matter because people take one look at my background and forget who they just interviewed , so what if I have the qualifications to do the job or of the person they thought me before the backgroud check comes in. 

HOW MUCH CAN A PERSON CHANGE IN SIX YEARS? ARE YOU THE SAME PERSON YOU WERE SIX YEARS AGO OR HAVE YOU CHANGED EVEN JUST A LITTLE?

So if there are any stylist in Charlotte, NC area that own a salon and are looking for help please email me at keyup82@aol.com or queenkey82@yahoo.com

There is no need to complain about everything that is going wrong in my life because I have GOD,my family, my three beautiful children, and my spouse. I just want the chance to try to be the best role model spiritually and morally for my children. While things are looking so down right now,because I know that in GOD's time I will have my day, and I can find joye in everyday and the beauty of life.
