Beautiful Collision

My skin color was my religion. – Alexcia

Pro black home. White people hated black people. We did not deal with white people in our class at all. – Alexcia

From the hood in Jersey City. Grew up in a very dysfunctional environment. My mom struggled with severe drug addiction. – Shamoir

I struggled with anger from the abandonment of my biological father. - Alexcia

I fought a lot. I got kicked out of multiple schools. – Alexcia

I resented God. I hated Him. – Shamoir

Even though my mom struggled with drug addiction, she was a phenomenal mom when she was clean. When she wasn’t suffering from relapse, she was an outstanding mom. She was my best friend. That’s why it was so hard, I felt like my world was taken away from me, when she died. I did feel abandoned. I would cry about it. I would find places to isolate myself and I would just scream. ‘Cause I had to get it out. I resented God. I hated Him. – Shamoir

When I got to college my eyes were opened. You have the drinking, the parties. - Alexcia

While growing up comfortably, Alexcia's religion was her skin color. Shamoir grew up surrounded by drugs and gangs. Now ministering to others and raising three daughters, their journey has been filled with life altering miracles.
