Testimonials
TK2 Ministries” has played a major role in my life and in my recognition of my true identity as a child of God.
Being at The Center for Community Transitions was very hard for me emotionally and mentally, but through pastoral counseling, being taken to church and other events, and the endless actions and words of encouragement from Minister Trent Knight and Vanessa Knight I was able to move forward in my life and my walk with God.
I am now an ordained Minister and founder and leader of Created For His Glory Prison Ministry. “TK2 Ministries”will always hold a special place in my heart and their endless deeds of love, support and kindness for the lost and hurting souls in Charlotte NC will forever be a testament to the good works that God requires from all His children. May God continue to bless this ministry and its founders and enlarge their territories for the whole world to see their love for God and all people through their daily lives and their actions. Always loving, always praying and always putting God first.

Tk2 ministries has been such a tremendous blessing to the Center for Women!
Trent and Vanessa truly have hearts to serve, and always goes above and beyond with each and every event they sponsor at our facility. From getting evening gowns for each woman who wants to attend the yearly Gala to providing engaging activities for the women to bond with their families during Family Day; they are the epitome of being the hands and feet of Christ. They always exemplify love and excellence in everything they do! I am so overjoyed that Vanessa is able to build relationships with our women and really meet/love them from where they are. She is such a positive role model, and they love her dearly.

My journey is like many others, yet not the same outcome.
I grew up moving to different states most of my childhood with both parents on different paths. As a result of an unaffectionate family, no spiritual influence, and no parental guidance, I am not surprised I found myself where I was in this life. I became friends with people who came from the same broken backgrounds, because that was normal to me. I ended up stealing; trying drugs; drinking; getting into unhealthy relationships, and self-destructing. Ultimately, I came to the crossroads of having to make a difficult decision. Everyone involved was waiting on me to decide to testify against my co-defendant, or go to prison. Most would not choose what I did. For two weeks I had this heavy weight on my heart that told me to take the time. I could not make sense of why I would feel to do that. However, I came to realize later that God was trying to save me. I was so hard headed, this was the only way He could reach me. He put it on my heart so he could redirect my path. It was a lengthy sentence that no one would want to take on just for the sake of someone else, but that wasn’t the purpose. Twelve years later, for the first time in my life, I love who I am and where I have landed on my feet. I have so much more in this life mentally, physically and spiritually than I did before. I had to lose everything, including my son, so God could open my eyes. Everything I lost, He has given back to me, and much more that I should not deserve. Now when He speaks . . . . I listen. He has brought me from destruction, and He keeps me. I finally understand the meaning of unconditional love and being my Father’s daughter.
