THE KATHIE J SHOW

The Kathie J Show | Abel Cervantes, New Life Program graduate

Nov 17, 2025, 4:14 PM

The Denver Rescue Mission is more than hot meals and a place to sleep — it’s a place where lives are rebuilt. Through life-changing programs that help break the cycle of homelessness, people find hope and a fresh start.

In this interview, Abel shares his honest and emotional journey — from the challenges that led him to homelessness to the steps he took to rebuild his life through the New Life Program. His story of perseverance, from running the Colfax Marathon to reuniting with his family, will move and inspire you.

This is the impact of your support — helping others this holiday season.
