This is the horrific yet ultimately redemptive story of a little girl named Rita

who experienced unimaginable childhood trauma at the hands of her parents.

Lost and unloved, bound by the trauma she endured as a child, she escaped

to the streets where her desperate cry for help led to homelessness and drug

addiction.

Utterly alone and rejected, Rita's call for help was heard in the most surprising

of ways when she encounters Christ, who fills all the broken places in her life.

Her life is radically transformed as she discovers that God can bring hope and

healing even in the darkest of circumstances.

Today as a wife, mother, and friend, Rita bravely shares her shocking story in

astonishing detail and with raw transparency that will make you both cry and

rejoice. You'll find renewed strength for your own life and rediscover God's

extravagant love and goodness.
