Howdy! Jesus & Dr. Michelle Arredondo, are the Co-founders for Steadfast Sparrows Corporation. They started this organization to give men incarcerated with violent offenses, resources to suicide-prevention, that they would not normally be able to obtain regardless of incarceration or not. Throughout Michelle's education, she had been expelled multiple times, sent to alternative school more than once, then sent to the Juvenile Justice Academy, before Juvenile Detention, Ankle Monitor & Krier. Those poor decisions had exacerbated, before finding herself in prison. As an ex-convict & High School drop-out, she was without resources, & understanding her situation she went back to school to obtain her Diploma, Associates, Bachelors, Masters, & a Doctoral Degree. Yes, as an ex-convicted Felon! Dr. Arredondo, still to this day, receives acceptance letters to her home from Universities in the United States. Dr. Arredondo understands what it means to be an ex-convict & truly struggle to find your path after incarceration. Her husband Jesus Arredondo is the medical portion, while he battles Diabetes & Michelle battles Lupus, Jesus found himself fighting for his life in the Spring of 2025. He contracted sepsis which quickly turned into septic shock. In a matter of days his kidney function went from over 100% to 10%, talks of Dialysis were on the Table. Not only were his kidneys failing but his liver was facing some form of trauma. It was hard to see Elohim opening doors for him, but he conquered! His admission date to the hospital was the same day that the Pope Passed away & miraculously he was released from the hospital on National Prayer Day. In the Fall of 2025, He enrolled himself in to Medical School & to his surprise Elohim paid 99% of his tuition, supplying him with all the tools, resources & supplies to carry out this new career that he paved a way for. Jesus' successfully passed his State Registration Exam for Medical Assisting & scored in the 99th percentile. He is set to graduate in the Summer of 2026. Elohim remains the inspiration for both of them! Together they are changing lives & after 11 years of Sterility, 1 Daniel fast, Prayers & 5000 days, Elohim blessed them with the ability to foster to adopt twin girls in January 2025. They are forever grateful to be parents.
