“I am beyond thankful for this program because it provided all of the resources that I needed to find freedom from addiction. I graduated in August of 2012 a changed man and with the foundation I’ve needed to remain clean and sober for 7+ years.

Not only have I remained clean, but I’ve been able to experience life and accomplish things that I couldn’t even imagine were possible when entering the doors of Teen Challenge in July of 2011. This place truly exists to “Bring Wholeness to the Hopeless!””

“I graduated from there in 1978. Since that time I was involved in several ministries. My wife and I were the Directors of the Teen Challenge in Kentucky for several years. I was Pastoral staff for two churches. I speak at two men’s ministries monthly. Only Jesus can change a person like that. Teen Challenge will ALWAYS be a part of my life. Thank you Lord Jesus for saving me and using this ministry to reach thousands with the LOVE of Christ”
