We have an open door to visit the UMC Detox Unit every Sunday afternoon from 3:30-4:30. One or two Celebrate Recovery members go and share short testimonies of how life was for us and how our lives are now-with the help of God and Celebrate Recovery. We have the honor of being witnesses of the hope that Jesus offers as they move through detox into recovery. It is a message of hope for the weary-that they are loved and valued in the family of God, even before they can love themselves.

God worked in some incredible ways, and we would love to hear your feedback! Please submit stories to missions@eastbayou.org about how God used you as an individual, family, or small group to help others, and how he used the day to teach you as well.
Amazing work, everyone! You may never know how far the service of one day has and will continue to impact Acadiana for Christ.
