Addiction impacts more than just the addict: Family members, church groups, and our very community all can be impacted by the erosion of addiction.

Came to Believe Recovery encourages the entire community, especially the immediate family of the addict, to get involved in helping end today’s addiction and prevent future addicts. These resources should help equip churches and family members alike to help #EndAddiction.

Support Those Affected

Family

We are committed to spiritual growth and healing in order to be ready for the personal relationships we will build together. We got sick together and we can certainly get well together. Our successful future will include families and friends.

Recovery Retreats are for everyone. We encourage addicts, friends and members of the family to attend together.  We treasure the memory of Dr, Bob, Bill Wilson and Anne Smith sitting at the Smith’s kitchen table each morning for months as they studied and prayed together. That was before the Big Book was written.  We invite everyone to the work of recovery. A robust support network for each member of the family greatly enhances success rates.

Help Your Congregation

Churches

Serve as a key faith partner in the fight against the addiction epidemic! Together we can bridge the spiritual gap and invite addicts to a place where they can establish freedom and begin their relationship with God. Came to Believe Recovery and local churches have added opportunities to reach the least, last and lost.

Can we help you serve as a light in the darkness for those suffering from addiction within your congregation? Can we help struggling addicts understand spiritual truths and engage in a faith community as never before? Addicts and those suffering from the effects of addiction typically lack spiritual awareness and may have had negative experiences with religious doctrine.  Can we help?
