When it comes to addiction and recovery, everyone has something in common: a story.
Imagine battling alcoholism while trying to fulfill your calling as a pastor. That's the reality Rev. Dorothy Sandahl, affectionately known as Pastor Dee, faced. In this episode of 'My Story of Addiction & Grace,' Pastor Dee opens up about her life in Minnesota, her struggles with alcohol, and her remarkable journey to recovery and ministry. Growing up in Minnesota, Pastor Dee's life took a challenging turn as she battled alcoholism. But her story doesn't end there.
Through unwavering faith and the support of her recovery community, she found her way back and discovered a renewed sense of purpose in ministry. Now semi-retired, she serves as an interim pastor in Wisconsin and lives in Hastings, Minnesota, with her husband. Her journey is a testament to the power of vulnerability, authenticity, and grace in overcoming addiction. Pastor Dee's story is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with similar challenges.
It underscores the importance of faith, community support, and perseverance in the recovery process. If you're seeking inspiration and encouragement, Pastor Dee's testimony offers a powerful reminder that recovery is possible and that grace can lead us through even the darkest times.
