We Congratulate the Fall Graduates of the Changed Life Recovery Program

On September 18, 2019, staff, volunteers, and members of the community came together to celebrate six graduates of the Mission’s Changed Life Recovery Program, a year-long spiritual recovery program designed to restore men back to their families and communities as upstanding, influential individuals leading lives of integrity. The graduation began with worship and concluded with prayer, as each man was commissioned to persevere on the path of recovery and healing. Following the service, graduates and their families were invited to continue the celebration over dinner at the Mission.

Just a year ago, these individuals committed to improving and recovering from a life of hardship caused by addiction and homelessness. All of us at the Frederick Rescue Mission, as well as friends and family, are incredibly proud of the progress each graduate has made over the last several months, and we wish them the best!
