It has been an exciting couple of weeks at The Refuge!  We signed a lease on a property for the men’s residential program on July 1st and everything has kicked into high gear.  We have begun to make plans to furnish the house and make plans for other projects that need to happen before we launch the program in January.  God has provided a perfect spot for the program and now we want to ask people in local churches to…

I am very excited to send out an update about what God is doing at The Refuge. The Lord has done big things in the last month! Monday we signed a lease to rent a property where we will be able to launch our men’s residential ministry. We had been praying that God would lead us to the right spot and He did!

First is that I started full time at The Refuge back in December 2018. I am so thankful for the opportunity to pour full time effort into the ministry here at The Refuge, and God is continuing to grow my passion and burden for Biblical addiction ministry. One…
