Jeroma's Story
Jeroma was a street girl, she lived a hard life, as a drug addict, and
the mother of children birthed in poverty. Jeroma found herself left in
a drunken stupor beside a dead body. She was arrested, and spent 4
years in Pollesmore prison awaiting trial for murder. Due to lack of
evidence Jeroma was acquitted, and she went to reside at The Ark, a
broken woman. There she was loved, believed in, healed from her lack of
belief in herself, and she came alive, vibrant and full of hope; she
had purpose and wanted to help and serve other people. Jeroma now
teaches a class of Year 5 children, loving them, believing in them,
teaching them.
