Jacob Needs Your Help Today

Standing up, passing out, and falling into a bed of red ants was Jacob's wake-up call.

Now in his fifties, Jacob has been in and out of rehab facilities since his late twenties. His wake-up call comes when he is homeless in the woods of Savannah, Georgia.

He stands up, passes out, and falls into a red anthill.

Waking up, he makes it to a friend's house. His friend takes him to the emergency room. The E.R. doctor keeps him for three days and says he has never seen anyone with so many ant bites. That he survives is a miracle.

But surviving isn't the same as living.

Jacob has attended intensive rehab centers for thirty-day, forty-five-day, and sometimes six-month periods. While he is in treatment, he excels.

But as soon as he is released, he relapses, ends up in trouble, and is incarcerated.

The cycle repeats. Again. And again. And again.

Jacob doesn't believe he can stay sober outside of an institution.

After so many institutionalizations, Jacob believes he cannot make it in the real world. He doesn't think he can maintain his relationship with Jesus Christ outside of a program. He doesn't believe he can hold a job, rebuild his savings, or be restored to his two beautiful children.

Jacob has heard about Redeemed Living.

He knows we offer something different—not just another institution, but a therapeutic community where men learn to live sober in the real world.

A place where every day is sprinkled with love and fellowship. A place where men:

• Wake up at 6:00 AM, make their beds, and learn structure

• Go to real jobs and become productive members of society

• Sit down to dinner with brothers who understand

• Attend Bible study and form their own Christian network

• Build savings, ride motorcycles on weekends, and dream again

Jacob needs Redeemed Living. And we need to be ready to say "yes" when he calls.

But here's the truth: Jacob could never afford the kind of opportunity that Redeemed Living offers. Most men like Jacob can't.

That's where you come in.

Your gift today provides a bed, a community, and hope for men like Jacob—men who have tried everything else and failed. Men who don't believe they can make it. Men who are one gift away from discovering they can live sober, un-institutionalized, with a plan for their relationships, finances, and career.

Will you help Jacob find the freedom he's been searching for?
