Teen Challenge Slovenia |
Last June, Jan visited the Teen Challenge drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in Slovenia. It is always great to see how men enter that home, usually from totally hopeless situations, and receive new life.
It is important to come to a point of surrender, that is step 1 in every recovery program ... acknowledge that you have no power over your addiction and that your life has become unmanageable. And then there is our loving God and Father! In most cases the men change so much when they get to know Him, that you do won't hardly recognize them 😀
Study material TC Slovenia |
In addition to Bible study, work and household duties, the men also follow individual and group lessons, the so-called Teen Challenge curriculum. The lessons cover all kinds of topics, such as dealing with anger and disappointments, but also about how to live as a Christian in daily life (relationships, marriage, work, etc.).
There is a huge amount of (Teen Challenge) teaching material available in the English language, and that material is being translated bit by bit. The question for Traveling Light is, whether we can help with part of the costs for translation and printing. Of course, we just LOVE to come alongside. It is so important (for every Christian, for that matter) that good education is available!
Group studies at TC Slovenia |
Teen Challenge in Slovenia was the first program we visited, even before Traveling Light was founded in 2011. We have a special bond with the staff and students.
Do you want to help us help them? They still need about 1,500 euro to cover the costs.
