Huge congratulations to our amazing students who just completed the Believe Children’s curriculum!

These kids worked so hard to memorized 30 Bible verses!

For our very first year as Recovery Alive, it has been absolutely awesome to have a children’s program that truly helped our students learn to think, act, and be like Christ.

Seeing their faith grow has been the ultimate reward.

Looking ahead to next term, we are so excited to transition to the newly released, official Recovery Alive children’s curriculum!

While we can't wait for what’s next, we are filled with gratitude for what this past year brought us, the foundation that was laid, and the ways God moved in the hearts of our kids.

Thank you to our amazing leaders, parents, and students who made this year so special!

Join us tomorrow as we finish our talks on step 9. We will have pizza for dinner and we will also celebrate our recovery milestones with tokens!

Our structured children's programming will conclude this week. We will continue to have childcare through the summer.

We have a holiday weekend coming up! Do you have your Relapse Prevention Plan set? Sponsor number on deck? Meetings lined up you can attend? Recovery doesn’t take holidays off — and neither should our spiritual maintenance. One meeting, one prayer, one phone call can change the direction of your entire weekend.

Here’s how to build a simple Relapse Prevention Plan:

• Identify your triggers ahead of time
(Holidays, loneliness, family stress, boredom, parties, isolation, overconfidence)

• Have support ready
Keep your sponsor’s number close and let trusted recovery people know if you’re struggling.

• Schedule your meetings BEFORE the weekend starts
Online meetings count too. Don’t wait until temptation hits.

• Make a plan for cravings
Pray. Call someone. Leave unsafe environments. Read literature. Go for a walk. Worship. Journal.

• Avoid high-risk places and people
Protect your peace. “Just stopping by” can become a relapse quickly.

• Keep your mind spiritually fed
Prayer, Scripture, meetings, service work, podcasts, devotionals — stay connected.

• Have an emergency action plan
If your thinking starts shifting, act immediately instead of sitting in it alone.

Recovery is not just about avoiding substances — it’s about protecting the life God is rebuilding. Stay close, stay honest, and stay connected this weekend.

We’d love to have you join us in person Friday night, but if you can’t make it- check out this link to Recovery Alive Inc for an online option!

Join us Friday for a testimony of God's love and grace! We will have a grilled hot dog dinner prior to the testimony.

This weekend is a holiday weekend and triggers may be amplified. Friday is a great time to go over your emergency recovery plan.

At the end of this month our structured, class like children's programing will conclude. We will continue to have normal child care for summer though.

Every recovery is different, every testimony is different. They are just like fingerprints. That is why we urge you to relate and don't compare your recovery journey to another. Practice this principle on Friday as we listen to a testimony of a changed life!

As we near our Mother of All Bake Sales. We could use help on Saturday between 9am and 4pm to repackage baked goods for our sale. Also, if you feel led to, consider making a baked good and bring it on Friday to sell on Mother's Day.

Here’s the video Jenn talked about last night- it is a great teaching on amends, using Ebenezer Scrooge as an example.
