Supporting men on their journey to becoming Overcomers

“Forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on.”
Philippians 3:13-14

On top of being homeless, many of the men who come to the Mission find themselves ensnared in a life-and-death battle with an addiction to drugs or alcohol.

The battle isn’t easy. That’s where our Overcomers Drug & Alcohol Recovery Support Groups come in. It’s one more way we seek to offer a hand-up and not just a hand-out.

Here’s what being a part of our Overcomers means to a few of our men:

William: “Before I came into the program, I felt all alone. In Overcomers, people know how I feel. I’m thankful for my fellow Overcomer’s ears.”

Doug: “The Overcomers meetings provide me with Christ-centered recovery support & fellowship. It’s a close family. It has brought me closer to Jesus Christ.”

Rodney: “In the group, iron sharpens iron. The Overcomers meeting allows me to keep pressing on.”

Roger: Overcomers is “a constant reminder to me that I am not alone in this struggle.”
