 If you are experiencing several of these signs you need to consider the possibility you have an addiction.

The H.O.P.E. International Addictions Program is a program that exists to help people all over the world achieve real and lasting freedom from the devastation of any and all addictions in their lives.

We...

• are a Bible centered, faith based addiction program.
• offer a weekly local support group.
• have a systematic approach to overcoming addictions.
• deal with all addictions.
• offer free personal and family Biblical counseling.
• are a non-residential program, so your life doesn’t stop while you break free.
• are a structured program with the flexibility to meet your personal needs.

We are a weekly support group that focuses on God’s answers to the addictions that we have become entangled with. H.O.P.E. Is not a self help group, it is a God help group for those who are tired of trying every new philosophy that comes along and are seriously ready to overcome their addictions.

The weekly meeting is divided into three segments, we call these Ready, Set, Go.

• Ready: In the ready segment we prepare ourselves to meet with God and each other by sharing testimonies and prayer requests. We also are introduced to the nights Bible truth with a short video.
• Set: In the set segment we go over the program material that we have each done the previous week. The material is called the Formula 4 life. We encourage you to work through this Bible based material in order to put the ingredients into your life for victory over addictions. During this segment we also share personal stories of victory from the week.
• Go: The go segment let’s us spend a little more time covering the Bible truth for the night as well as receiving awards for work completed in the Formula 4 Life.
