“It has been an absolute blessing to find Faith House. Coming here I had no idea what I was getting into but I’m happy I came because I found a good place with people who help with an open heart in all aspects of our lives without the restrictions that allow us to feel like we really have the power to do this on our own and not like the system would. We get to rekindle our relationship with God, while living in a sober setting. If you whole-heartedly build that relationship, then staying sober gets a little easier. If we start to struggle, we always have Courtney and Kelly we can rely on to talk us out of a bad day or just to help in any way we find ourselves struggling here. We became more than just roommates in this house. We have a close bond that helps our journey through this process. Like I said, all of this is a blessing, and I know God helped me find Faith House for a reason.”

I know without Faith House I wouldn’t have been able to go through the things that I’ve been through this past year. I lost custody of my daughter, and I lost my Mom. I remained completely clean throughout the whole thing. I couldn’t have done it without Faith House. Coming here not only saved me from my own hell but gave myself back. Before I walked into the Faith House, I was lower than my bottom. I was in my own hell. The moment I stepped foot in this place, Courtney saw something in me that I never thought I would see again. Faith House helped me restore the person who I have always long to be but was too afraid to be because I was on drugs. I wouldn’t be where I’m at in my life right now if it wasn’t for this opportunity. This place has wonderful structure, which I needed. The home is filled with joy and love which I longed for. This is not just a place to live, this is a home. God put Faith House in my path for a reason. God obviously knows what he’s doing. Thank you, Heavenly Father.

“Before I came to Faith House, I was spiritually broken. On the outside, my life actually looked pretty good. I had a job, I had a car, I rented a house, I was doing adult gymnastics, and to other people, it probably looked like I was living a full, successful life. But inside, something was missing. I couldn’t even explain what it was. I just knew that I wasn’t okay. I would have thoughts of suicide pop into my head and I didn’t understand why. I kept thinking, I should be happy. My life is good. Why do I feel like this? But the truth was, I was empty spiritually, and I didn’t even realize that’s what was missing. I was in an IOP program, and when I was getting close to finishing, they gave me a list of around 50 sober living homes to call. I remember calling Courtney, and from the very first conversation, I could feel something different. She was kind, welcoming, and genuine. When I came to tour the house, I was sold immediately. It didn’t feel like just a house… it felt like a home. But even though I knew this was where I needed to be, I was absolutely terrified to come. During the time I was in IOP, I was living with an addict who was actively using my drug of choice. I knew that if I stayed there, I had no real chance of staying clean. So on the day I planned on moving in, I went to work with all my stuff already packed in my car, and when I left, I drove straight to Faith House. When I pulled into the driveway, I was so scared that I started crying. And that’s when something happened I’ll never forget.

Courtney, Kelly, and the girls from the house came outside and greeted me. They hugged me. They reassured me. They told me it was going to be okay. In that moment, I didn’t feel like a stranger or an outsider — I felt welcomed, like I belonged there. And the crazy thing is… I became comfortable there very quickly. The transition was easier than I ever imagined it would be. Through Faith House, Courtney helped me identify what was missing in my life all along: my spirituality and my relationship with God. I started going to church, Bible study, and meetings. I learned how to actually sit with my emotions instead of running from them. I learned what it looks like to live intentionally, not just on autopilot. One of the biggest things that helped me was our weekly check-ins. Having to really look at different areas of my life — my relationship with God, how my week went, how work was going, my relationship with my sponsor, and even my feelings about the house — forced me to actually pay attention to my inner world. That was something I had never done before. I was used to just moving through life without stopping to reflect. Those check-ins taught me honesty, awareness, and accountability.

Today, when I look at myself, I can see so much growth… and it happened so quickly. Other people can see it too. I’ve progressed in my job. I show up on time. I am more responsible. I’m more grounded.

But the biggest change is on the inside.

I have a relationship with God now. I can see how He has been working in my life even when I didn’t know it at the time. I’m learning patience instead of just reacting out of fear or anger. I’ve learned how to communicate in a healthy way, how to express my feelings and concerns instead of stuffing them down or exploding.

I’ve now officially graduated the program, but I chose to stay at the house because of how much it has helped me and how safe and supported I feel there. And honestly, one of the most beautiful parts of staying is getting to watch other women come in broken like I was and start to grow, heal, and find hope again.

Faith House didn’t just give me a sober place to live.

Faith House helped give me a new life, a new way of thinking, a relationship with God, and a future that I never thought was possible for myself.

And for that, I will be forever grateful.”

“Before coming to Faith House, I was hopeless. I had found myself in a very dark place with no way out. I was on a path of destruction and knew that I would soon die if I didn’t make a change. Courtney and Kelly welcomed me with open arms. I wasn’t easy to deal with, but they were patient with me. All I needed was a chance and they offered me more than that. They gave me a safe place to live. They put rules in place to help me learn how to live a normal life. I was able to stay sober, work on my mental health, complete the steps, find a place in the church, and help spread the love to other women who came in with the same feeling of hopelessness that I had. I recently celebrated 1 year sober. God has restored my family and blessed me with the tools I need to stay happy, joyous, and free. Thank you, Faith House.”
