Celebrate the Recent CLRP Graduation

Earl and Joe

February 26 was a big day here at the Mission. Three men graduated from the Changed Life Recovery Program and are entering a new chapter in their lives – free from addiction. These men have spent the last 6-12 months allowing God to begin the healing process from a lifestyle of addiction, to renew their minds through the study of His Word, and to transform their hearts through serving others. They have worked hard to arrive at this point in their recovery.

Also, three men were promoted from the residential phase of the program to the transitional phase. They will live in transitional housing, work in the community, and attend evening recovery groups. Both graduation and promotion represent a milestone in their lives and in their journey with Christ. Celebrate with them and pray for their continued joy and growth in Him!
