Praying with Purpose Program
J. Phillips
North Carolina When I first attended Beauty for Ashes Ministry, I met an angel that moved me. It was the first time that someone preached and I understood it, making me want more. It was also the first time someone laid hands on me and I felt a spirit come over me opening up the floodgates. I was open and raw and human form. From that moment on I couldn't get enough, I had to be in her presence again. So, I continue to come to the church seeking Pastor Douthit only to find out that she was not the pastor of BFA (Beauty for Ashes). I later found out that BFA belonged to Pastor Douthit mother Pastor Rosa Marion. As I continued to attend thinking one day she'd return, whatever radiated from her I wanted to be near it. My patience paid off and she came back to preach, I was so elated! Pastor Douthit prayed over me in a way I've never been prayed for. It was almost as if she can see the little broken girl inside me, like she could see my soul. She spoke life into what I thought was dead I came out of my shell and really opened up and started to believe in my creator. This woman pushed me to the point of no return. She challenged me and I didn't back down. The challenge was ten-day prayer journey. I put up some resistance at first but she saw the best in me and kept pushing until I submitted. I went places in this journey that I thought I'd thought I had buried, I cried and almost quit. However, Pastor Yolanda would say dig deeper, and I did. I'm so thankful and very appreciative for her persistence and push. For I would not be the woman of God that I am today. I want to be near the fire so I could stay warm under my father's arm. I came out of the prayer journey anew, and completely in love with my Father the creator. Having a natural understanding of how and when to pray is everything! I am no longer afraid or hiding it. I am confident I am a conqueror and I owe it all to my mother in Christ Pastor Yolanda Douthit. If I could be half the woman she is I will be alright. |
40 Days of Healing Program
I remember when I first joined The Sanctuary Ministries in 2013 my life was a complete chaos. I did not know if I was coming or going I just knew that being in The Sanctuary made me feel safe and that I knew anything I discussed it would stay there. I grew up being the black sheep of the family. Many always told me that even though I was that child that got treated unfairly, I still was the strong one, and that I would fight through any battle I was facing. I was dealing with a lot about 2 ½ years ago I felt like my life was falling apart. I felt like giving up. I was dealing with a lot of generational curses things that I had not dealt with, things I kept inside and just kept covering it up until Pastor Yolanda gave me an assignment and it was the 40 days of healing. When I said that changed my life and lifted so much off me I can’t even explain the feeling. I remember at the beginning I could not give my revelations of what the scriptures I said to me and it was very frustrating. But I knew once I gave it my all and start focusing and sitting still asking God for clarification and understanding everything just became more clear and by the 22nd day I could see the transformation and I was giving those revelations with no problem. I was releasing things that I did not know still existed, things I thought I could just forget about but no they were still there. One day I had to meet with Pastor because I was at my half way point and this day really made me look at life differently - look at myself differently. I felt empty, alone, unloved, angry, sad, and not beautiful but on the outside people were seeing just the opposite. I wore a mask that people would not know I how really felt about myself. Once I started to release those things it felt like a big weight was lifted. I was carrying burdens that I should have not been carrying. I realized that day that it was not those burdens was not even mine to carry so why was I carrying them. That day I decided to release and let God. I am so grateful for this challenge because it was a challenge that I was willing and ready to take. It’s not for everyone but it was definitely for me. It as just what I needed to get to the second chapter in my life. I knew that in order for my life to change I had to release somethings that was not mine to carry anyways. 40 Days of Healing changed my life. |

North Carolina Equipped. Pastor Yolanda has equipped me for this next season in my life with her 40 Day Healing Journey, which she coached and mentored me the entire way. The important piece through my journey was being obedient to the assignments and tasks that Pastor Yolanda asked me to complete. She held me accountable and she checked on me through messages and calls. |
40 Days of Healing Program
A. Anderson
North Carolina To whom much is given much is required. I can hear Pastor Yolanda telling me that over and over and over and over again. My name is Asante Anderson. I completed the 40 days of healing with Pastor Yolanda in December of 2017. Let me first say I had no idea what to expect from the process. I thought I would get some good Biblical perspectives along with some guidance and possibly a new outlook on small things within my life. Boy oh boy was I mistaken!! I initially thought I would do the challenges day by day. I would do my heart work and that would be it. Nope, not at all. Pastor Yolanda challenged me EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!! I was warned a breakthrough would indeed come, I had no idea it would be at day 3. I mean it literally shook me to my core. Each day had a different scripture to apply to that days teaching. It’s funny some days the scriptures would be 1 or 2 verses and then some days it would be far more in depth. But no matter what, the scriptures were uniquely designed to get EXACTLY what the Father requires from you in that very moment. Although I did not realize it at the time the process truly changed not only my way of thinking, it changed my relationships, my business acumen, just my life as a whole. I cried, I purged, I fought it, tried to take the easy way out, then finally pushed through. I was not prepared for the shift, but I am thankful I completed the process. I’m eternally thankful. |

L. Robinson
North Carolina When I came to The Sanctuary Ministries I was broken from past relationships, angry with my family and the last church that I attended. I was looking for a place that was true, real and authentic. The Sanctuary Ministries became a refuge for me. I didn't have much trust in people however, I was able to find that trust in Pastor Yolanda. She suggested that I go through the 40 days of healing. The 40 days of healing was very challenging and it made me dig within myself and see exactly where the root of my hurt was from. God revealed to me during those 40 days that I was dealing with a spirit of rejection and that spirit was planted in me from conception. The 40 days of healing helped me get free from the spirit of rejection and forgive those who had hurt me. I have grown tremendously in my walk with Christ and I have found my purpose. I now know that God loves and I have been accepted into the Beloved. It doesn't matter what people say or think I know that I have a Father that loves me. I am confident and walking in my calling and I am not going to allow Satan to get in my way. |
One on One Program
S. Bass
North Carolina In 2014, my life was starting to unravel and I did not have anyone or anything to hide behind anymore. I was broken, I mean in a thousand or more pieces. In addition, the more I tried to move forward the longer my trail of broken pieces was becoming. I was broken open for the entire world to see. I could no longer hide behind my façade, and the truth is I no longer wanted to I wanted to die. Here I was at 35 years of age, four kids, a broken marriage, and I had nothing but heartache and pain to show for myself. That was until a good friend introduced me to Pastor Yolanda. |

One thing that I will definitely do in 2017 is speak up. Speak up especially when it comes to people who impact my life tremendously. Ive known Pastor Yolanda Douthit for about 15 years. We have had many, many, many conversations and opportunities to show true friendship. But aside from her being a true, beloved companion of mine she has been a source of truth, love and revelation. In true growth, I had to deal with generational curses, learned behaviors, and habits that have hindered my growth both spiritually and professionally. I also had a bad habit of inconsistent behavior. I just thought I had a bad memory and because I was kind, I should be forgiven. When I started having my 1 on 1 sessions with Pastor Yolanda, revelation came to me that my thoughtlife and inconsistent behavior had been the cause for me not walking in the fullness of Christ. Not one time did she make me to feel bad for my lack of not knowing or believing some of the noise I allowed in my eargates. We worked out actual workplans, and she held me accountable to all that I had to do. My life is 100% better, my business has grown, I became a better parent and believed enough in what God says about me to open my own business. This would not have happened if it were not for the Godly instruction and influence Pastor Yolanda has bestowed upon me. I as well as my family; will be forever grateful for |
Millennial Mentorship Program

I listened to all 9 weeks of the teachings and all I can say is my life has really changed, this hit areas in my life that I didn't even remember. I am beyond grateful because I was able to be open about things that I've been through and it's no longer apart of me and I'm also able to talk about it now without feeling ashamed. What really took me by surprise was that I started experiencing things before I even finish watching a teaching or answering the questions. so I was able to understand what Pastor Yolanda was teaching and answering questions in my Destiny Driven Diary, it's as if my spirit is 10 steps ahead and it was just my mind and body that needs to catch up. I do realize that the things of the world does keep you captive mentally and keep you bond thinking your not living your existing all because you don't have the material things. I now know that my if I'm not all together spiritually I am no one regardless of what I have. I have some catching up to do! |
