Saturday consists of a half-day of work with an evening of recreation or personal time. The first Sunday of the month is our graduation day. Scheduled visiting hours are between 9:30 and 5:00. The other Sundays of the month are family worship days. The hours that family members may visit on these days are from 9:30 until 2:30. (Student and families must attend any worship service scheduled during visitation hours). Families are welcome to join us for lunch after Sunday morning worship.
You will find the atmosphere here to be relaxed, quiet, and calm. There is plenty of time for personal worship and time alone with yourself and God. If you stay with the program and give it to God, you will see that He can improve your body, mind, and soul. Our fees do not begin to cover the costs of providing treatment, room, and board. We rely on donations to make it possible for our program to continue operating.
In the event a man entering our program needs to be detoxed from drugs or alcohol, we ask that he visit a local hospital for services or be admitted to Quinton’s Place in Dublin, Ga. Quinton’s Place is a state licensed medical detox facility requiring a 3 to 5 day stay. Phone: (478) 272-1190
