I am struggling financially due to a health issues from the big C and when I tell you the people here are so wonderful kind and generous. The process for utility assistance was easy and quick. They're very professional and straightforward. Customer service is top notch I just want to say thank you so so much for helping me. Sarah is a Godsend she handled everything for me while I'm in chemo. Amazing! Thank you to everyone at the ministry 🫶🏽
