The Full Story
Pilgrim's Progress, a nonprofit organization committed to assisting men grappling with addiction, began operating on June 1, 2017. The founders of this organization came together through a men's Bible study group, where they uncovered a mutual dedication to supporting individuals in search of recovery from drug and alcohol dependency.
​
Driven by a desire to respond to what they perceived as a divine calling, the pair embarked on a mission to create a safe house to provide residency and support for men transitioning from detox to treatment. The program at Pilgrim's Progress emphasizes the instillation of Christian values, the allocation of necessary resources, and the expression of Jesus' love in the hearts of its participants.
​
In a relatively short period, Pilgrim's Progress emerged as a vital resource for numerous men who sought assistance in overcoming their addictions. The organization has played a significant role in guiding these individuals out of the depths of addiction and towards a life of wholeness, while empowering them to extend their support to others walking a similar path.
Pilgrim's Progress places a greater emphasis on the transformative power of character development than on the sheer number of individuals it helps. The organization is dedicated to witnessing the hand of God in action as it restores, replenishes, and profoundly changes the lives of these men. The focus lies not on quantity, but on nurturing a quality of character that enables these individuals to embark on a path of personal growth and positive change.​
OUR VISION
Our vision at Pilgrims Progress is to promote Christian values, reduce crime rates, and eliminate substance abuse from our communities. We believe that by emphasizing the importance of Christ-centered living, we can empower individuals to lead healthier, more productive lives, and thereby contribute to a safer and more prosperous society.

Through our various initiatives, we strive to restore hope and healing to those struggling with addiction and other related issues. By providing safety, aftercare resources, and support, we seek to equip individuals with the tools necessary to break free from the chains of substance abuse and build a solid foundation for lasting recovery.
​
At the core of our vision is a deep commitment to the transformative power of faith, which we believe has the potential to bring about meaningful change in the lives of those we serve. Through our work, we aim to build a brighter future for our communities, one in which individuals are empowered to live with dignity, purpose, and hope.

During my stay at the Safe House, I began to be awakened spiritually. I am forever grateful for the men that helped me during my stay.

Nothing made much sense to me at first, but upon awakening one morning something changed. I always figured the Safe House had something to do with it.

The Safe House provided a smooth transition for me after getting off the streets. All the new people I met, most of us are still friends today.
