Overview
The goal of all Recovery Ministries at Grace Chapel is to help individuals who are coping with a variety of issues that tend to make growth in Christian faith difficult. Issues of loss, broken relationships, divorce, abuse, mistrust of persons, addiction to various substances, or destructive life patterns tend to keep individuals stuck in their progress toward a balanced and meaningful Christian life. This is in fulfillment of the mission of Grace Chapel which is Pointing People to Jesus Christ and Creating Communities of Kingdom Builders.
Each of the ministries for recovery is specifically designed to help a person through a particular crisis period and then to assist that individual into the mainstream life of the congregation. To facilitate the process of incorporation into the larger life of the church, specific mentors or mentor couples are available. These mentors will be available for brief periods of time to support and encourage individuals, couples and families in finding the connections within the church family.
