“This place was amazing. From the awesome counselors Toni , Vickie, Farah to the wonderful CA’s Betsy my fav to Eden , Amber and Jen and Gibby, you were all crucial to my recovery. I made so many new friends here and strengthened my relationship with God. Pastor Brad was awesome such a man of God. I loved going to chapel. Also the gym every day. They feed you very well too. I would suggest this to anyone”

– Deneese Myers

“I graduated in 1994, a little over 28 years ago. It was a blessing that stayed with me through to this present day. The Lord is so awesome that I can’t even put my experiences in words. I gained a lot of tools and growth there, that made it worth every minute.”

– Loren Thomason

“This is a great organization that loves God and loves people. Those looking for a place of refuge from the woes of addiction should definitely check out Pennsylvania Adult and Teen Challenge!”

– Michael Fanjoy

“If it wasn’t for this program and God I wouldn’t have my husband. He is proof that this program works IF you’re willing to work hard and trust in God. God is always there even in our darkest moments. You just have to believe and push through and trust you aren’t alone. I’m extremely grateful for this program and the men and women who work so hard to make a difference especially my husband”

– Jamie Allyson

“The support from the staff and other students there is wonderful, but foremost realizing that you can’t do this struggle alone and you don’t have to, knowing the Lord Christ our Savior will give you the strength and love, that you are worth it and all things are possible through him.”

– Cindy Clabaugh

“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!””

– Ken Lemons

“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”

– Bernie Foschini
