21 Day Program

Program Goals

The program our guest are entering is a program designed to assist them in learning what the Bible says concerning their life and possible relationship with God.

The Bible says:

• God wants to reconcile them to Himself through their trust and commitment in his Son, Jesus Christ.
• Daily personal Bible study and application of Biblical principles lead to wholeness in a person’s life.

This program lasts three weeks. An extension of stay or acceptance into another program depends on their satisfactory progress in and completion of this program.

If Guest leave prematurely without completing this program, they will be disqualified from returning to the shelter for 10 days!
