We’re all recovering from something...
Each life is precious.
And like a drop in the pond, each life has an immense, rippling effect on all the lives close by--for better or worse. As our name implies, theeffect is focused on realizing the transforming effect of God’s love and relationship in people’s everyday lives. Without true transformation--including recovery from addictions, compulsions, and other destructive patterns--there is no basis for the healthy relationships that create a full life. Because most people never experience such transformation we acutely feel the need for a renewed approach to life and spirituality.
theeffect is committed to providing both the direction and physical tools needed for people to break through whatever destructive patterns they have established in their lives. And as a non-profit organization, theeffect has developed a community approach to recovery and transformation.
a recovery community
We’ve learned that true transformation, recovery, and rehabilitation is not possible without immersion in an authentic community. theeffect helps create ongoing relationships and focuses on encouraging and helping people to actively engage in their own recovery--that is, taking their recovery programs into every moment and every aspect of their lives.
theeffect community offers specific recovery programs, but also creates an ongoing and seamless community presence through daily gatherings and activities such as studies, discussion groups, social and youth-centered events, classes, and workshops. Counseling and mentoring services are available, and theeffect also hosts AA, NA, and Al-Anon meetings on site--everything people need to repair their relationships, families, jobs, and baseline ability to live in community. Please see our website for a complete calendar of activities and events. |
