Faith-Based Dorm
Our goal is to equip the women to function as a model of Christian community. The Murray Unit in Gatesville has invited us to establish a faith-based dorm, and 56 women have been accepted to practice their faith and live in accountable relationships.

Celebrate Recovery
This recovery program emphasizes personal responsibility.
Instead of playing the “accuse-and-excuse” game of victimization, this program helps people face up to their own poor choices and deal with what they can do something about. We cannot control all that happens to us, but we can control how we respond to everything. That is a secret of happiness.
When we stop wasting time fixing the blame, we have more energy to fix the problem. When you stop hiding your own faults and stop hurling accusations at others, then the healing power of Christ can begin working in your mind, will, and emotions.

Alpha
The Alpha course is normally run over a period of 10 weeks. At each session there is a chance for fellowship, followed by the talk. After the talk, participants divide into prearranged groups—each group has two leaders and two helpers who may have completed a previous course or could be prison staff or volunteers.

“I learned from Alpha that being a Christian can be fun. I’ve made the commitment to start over in Christ. I’ve died to my old ways, and I’m being resurrected in Christ in my new life. The mistakes I’ve made are over with, and I’ve asked God to forgive me.”
