I couldn’t have done that if they wouldn’t have opened their doors and allowed me to come in. I was at the bottom of the barrel, basically, and it was an opportunity to climb out… I needed help and they helped me. John moved out of Transitional and this is what he shared at a recent New Life Program graduation: The end goal is that within a year they will be financially and emotionally ready to live on their own again with great support from outside the Mission. This usually means getting back into the rhythms of going to school or job searching, and continuing with the other goals they have been working on. In Transitional, men have the opportunity to stay in a safe, accountable community while integrating their new life into the broader Bellingham community. For many of them, that means moving on to the Mission’s Transitional Housing. We have four men graduating from the Program this October! They’ve worked hard this past year and are now ready to take the next step. I have learned so much on my issues of anger, pride, procrastination, responsibility, trust, accountability I can go on and on… We have graduates! I’ve learned so much in one year spiritually and as a human being than I have learned for the last twenty years of my life.
I’m very grateful, thankful, and blessed for this program. My brokenness towards God, family and others was a big mess. I was emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually dead when I came into the Program. This is how he describes his experience:Īfter my dad’s passing and my divorce, I had a really hard time trusting people.
Our program aims to help these men find healing from those wounds and reconcile with the people they care about, through the power of Jesus Christ.ĭaikson is one of these men who is about to finish his year in the Program and graduate. Men who enter our New Life Program typically come with deep wounds from their past which led to addictive behaviors and unhealthy relationships. Usually seven or eight men are in the program at a time.
During their year, men are immersed in community living, which includes service to their peers around the Mission, 10 classes each week, Christian counseling, and Biblically based reading and homework.All this is done within an intentional community with each man connected with a local church. The New Life Program is our yearlong discipleship and recovery program.
