The best guide for a wilderness experience is someone who has 'been there'. By Wanda's reckoning she has 'been there' at least once, and in some instances two or three times. That was what made her uniquely qualified to work with her WIN Girls (Women In Need). No matter how messed up their lives might have been, Wanda had usually been there first. Alley Cat at the Mercy of the Gods is Wanda Mulligan's life story. Initially it is a story of pain, loneliness, and loss. By many standards Wanda suffered so much in her life that she should have given up in bitterness long ago. Wanda would be the first to say, though, that it was precisely the tragedies of her life that made her the effective counselor that she became. Because she had been through so much, she was able to reach out to all those other girls who were experiencing difficult times. She would also tell you that it was when she was at her lowest, when she was completely without hope of saving her-self, God stepped in and took control. That is the message that Wanda wants to share. God used her to show His love for others through her ministry with her WIN Girls. Now she wants to spread His words of love and forgiveness to an entire world.
