This Easter, many people are struggling with addiction right here in your own community

Your kind gift today can provide everything needed for someone’s first day of recovery

In this season of redemption and second chances, many of your neighbours are looking to find freedom from addiction.

But for some families, recovery programs cost more than they can afford.

For $137, you can provide:

A safe place to stay
Food
Counselling
Experienced 24/7 support
A bible
…And more!

Through your generosity, you can come alongside individuals and families dealing with addiction and remind them of the comfort they can find in Jesus’ promises.

You can provide the second chance and new life they’ve been praying for.

If you’re able to—and would like to—help this Easter, know that your gift will get to work right away supporting men and women struggling with addiction…

…And easing the burdens of their family members.

Thank you, and God bless you!

When I was introduced to crystal meth my life spiralled completely out of control and sadly this went on for years before I finally came to the end of myself and knew I needed help. I entered the Adult & Teen Challenge Manitoba Women’s Centre and everything changed. God met me there and showed me a new meaning and purpose for my life.

At age 13, I experimented with ecstasy, marijuana and alcohol. I felt worthless and hopeless and the next 17 years my drug use escalated into crack cocaine and fentanyl. I had been charged with many criminal offences and my lawyer told me about Adult & Teen Challenge. I was accepted to Thunder Bay men’s program and a month later I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour and was baptised. I have learned how God loves me and has a plan for my life, discovering my true identity in Christ. He healed me, giving me joy, peace and purpose.

Before I entered the Adult & Teen Challenge program I used and sold drugs. I was a violent person and did things that landed me in jail. I believed I was coming to the end of myself with my only options being death by drugs, violence or spending the rest of my life in jail. But God had a different plan. During my last time in jail I committed the next year to ATC because of the love of my family and Robby Ahuja. Getting to know Jesus has changed my life. Slowly but surely he is growing inside me. I sing and I dance because He lives in my heart. Now I have love and forgiveness and am committed for life
