Deborah's House
Submitted by Edie DeVilbiss, Rev. Dr.
I am privileged to serve on the Board of Directors for a ministry that serves women in addiction recovery called Deborah’s House.
Many families have been touched by the disease of addiction – an equal opportunity affliction. Class, race, gender, and intelligence have no protective effect at all.
Deborah’s House is a safe house for women, who have been through primary treatment, to do the things they need to do to create a productive life.
We require them to:
- Attend support meetings
- Either have a full time job or attend school
- Pay rent
- Work with a mentor to adapt to sober living
Ways to Help
This ministry is powerful and necessary.
I have two different ways you can help support this mission.
1. We are searching for more mentors. Requirements are that you are a woman with an open heart and one to two hours per week to pour God’s grace into a Deb’s life.
2. We are holding our annual fundraiser on October 1st.
Golf tournament & a Bunco game.
You are cordially invited to participate. See the flyer for details.
