The Mission was a God given vision 40 years ago. God wanted to have His own place to minister to individuals suffering from addictions. These individuals were not only emotionally and physically bankrupt but spiritually empty.
The Mission has always placed an emphasis on the spiritual aspect of the 12-step program. Understanding that without God a man will never have peace.
The Mission always stands for integrity, believing that we must rely on God for our financial support and our complete guidance. Our men are required to get a job immediately rather than applying for government assistance. By going this route a man learns to trust God very early in the program, while his self-esteem grows.
We encourage each man to become a provider for his family and a trustworthy vessel fit for God's use as he becomes a contributing member of society. The Mission teaches biblical values, principles, ethics, and integrity. We believe that the Bible is the Word of God and, therefore, we do not adjust or adapt to the "times" nor do we promote politically correct viewpoints that are contrary to biblical teaching.
Over the years the Mission has been of service to more than 10,000 souls seeking love, understanding and compassion. Our mission first and foremost is to lead them to a living and loving Christ. The master healer, the most compassionate Father. It has been the pursuit of this calling that has allowed our doors to remain open without seeking government grants nor any other fountains of money that might interfere with Gods plans and purposes.
It is with gratitude, joy and humility that we present to you the program of “The Mission”. We hope that this website will give you the information you are looking for and, of course, we are always more than happy to receive your telephone calls, emails and letters.
May the blessings and promises of our Lord Jesus Christ be yours now and forever, AMEN!
