Today we celebrate these amazing women and the hard work they’ve put into completing the program!

To our graduates,
This is not the finish line… this is the starting point.
The structure may change…
the environment may change…
but the responsibility is now yours.
Take what you’ve learned here and live it out there.
Stay rooted. Stay grounded. Stay accountable.
And never forget where you came from… and what God brought you through.

How to Apply for Rooted in Grace Recovery & Discipleship

If you or a loved one is interested in joining our program, here’s how to get started:

📞 Step 1: Reach out to Jeffery Metz by phone at 618-707-6233.

📋 Step 2: Jeffery will schedule an in-person interview (in some cases, a phone interview may be done).

✅ Step 3: If you agree to our program rules and guidelines, and Jeffery feels you are a good fit, you will be accepted based on availability.
• If a bed is open, you may be placed immediately.
• If not, you will be placed on a waiting list.

📆 Step 4 (Waitlist Requirement):
Once approved and placed on the waiting list, you must check in weekly by calling or texting Jeffery.
• This helps us identify those who are serious about the program.
• If you miss a check-in, you will be removed from the waiting list and must restart the application process.

We are here to help those who are ready for change and committed to the journey.

Hi community,

We want to keep you all as informed as possible because, at the end of the day, we serve you.

Unfortunately, if you haven’t already heard, the Women’s Center will be closing on April 15. While our original and long-term vision has always been to serve both men and women, having both in the same location has not worked as well as we hoped. On top of that, the cost of maintaining the building has been high, and we have not had enough women residents to offset those expenses.

Please know that women are still very much part of the vision. Right now, we simply need to take a step back, regroup, and seek direction. We truly believe God will lead us through this, just as He has every step of the way. We have come so far in such a short amount of time, and we trust there is more ahead.

With that being said, we would love for you to join us in celebrating the graduations of:

Nina Cessna
Brandy Thomas
Miranda Brenton

Their graduation will be held on April 17th at 3:00 PM at Covenant of Grace Church of God, located at 712 11th St. in Lawrenceville.

Thank you all for your continued support, prayers, and encouragement.

Sunday nights look a little different around here.
Hands lifted, hearts surrendered, and lives being changed right before our eyes.

This isn’t just a service. This is freedom, brotherhood, and a real encounter.

So grateful for what God is doing through these men at Rooted in Grace Recovery & Discipleship!
