Where there is always Hope, Help, and Healing
Welcome to Recovered 4 Life (R4L). This is where we battle addictions in the community.
Our vision is to see all churches in the world take on the Elijah Project and the Addiction Rehab in the Community (ARC), to help those in their community to be set free from addiction, social phobias, mental issues, and emotional distress by realizing that Jesus Christ is their healer, saviour, and friend.
Dawn runs a 5 day a week rehab for those with active addictions who want to get clean from a myriad of addictions.
People who suffer with alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, pornography, food, phones, games, sex, etc… they only want to get free of these addictions. This is what we do on the Addiction Recovery in the Community (ARC), and the Elijah Project.
We have mentors, befrienders, support personnel, and pastors to work with people so they can get hope, help and healing.
Hope comes from us supporting people with solid Biblical teaching, and practical support from mentors and befrienders. We surround the clients with people who have been there, done that and have come free. We even bring in past clients who are in the community living addiction free lives.
Jim teaches the mentors and befrienders on how to support vulnerable adults. There are consistent training courses being performed, so if you need this training in your community or church group please contact us to schedule some time with Jim.
R4L was begun as a recovery program for those who suffered with addictions. It was began by Jim and Dawn VanSice 7 years ago. Both Jim and Dawn had previous major addictions in their lives. Through God, surrender and practical teaching they have both been free of their addictions for years. Since this time Dawn wrote the Elijah Project book, and Jim is currently writing a book for mentoring people with addictions. Please watch this video to see why Jim and Dawn do what they do to help people who suffered as they did.
R4L began in Southampton England and has expanded quickly. We have a leader in the Southampton area who runs a program, and an off shoot of the recovery program running in London. R4L have since grown into Ghana and are starting a training program for many churches there. Once the training program is finished we will roll out the Elijah Project to any groups, NGO’s, or churches who need to work with people who suffer with alcohol, drugs, gambling, pornography, sex, and food addictions.
CONDA will spearhead the project in Ghana which is a Coalition Of NGO’s on Drug Addiction. They will roll out the Addiction Recovery Centre (ARC) in Accra Ghana once the Elijah Project has taken off. They will also man the office to ensure the Elijah Project is taught in the right way all over Ghana. They are working on setting policy about emptying the ghettos, getting prostitutes off the streets, and helping the vulnerable get free from addictions.
Well, we’ve made it to 2020. We’ve all heard the terms 2020 vision by now, and it’s old school. So, after saying that our vision for R4L, Elijah Project, and the ARC are coming into view. Dawn and I have left the Elijah Project in the capable hands of Colin in Southampton, and we are …
Well it’s been a very busy year in 2019, so let’s review. Our third year with the ARC has seen yet more people set free from their addictions. We produced a new video for Jenna, who was brave enough to share her story. We traveled to Ghana in Africa, and spent 10 days on the …
