Core Values and Beliefs: As Disciples of Christ, we promote the spiritual growth, restoration, and develop- ment of individuals, families and communities. Through Biblical values and integrity, we inspire Godliness, teamwork and responsibility. Our emphasis is on a relationship and dependence on God, through Jesus Christ, powered by the Holy Spirit for true change.
Mission: Help the hurting overcome addiction through Freedom in Christ.
Vision: By 2015, Bethel Colony South Transformation Ministry will be recognized as a leader in Christian-based addiction recovery.
Who We Are: Bethel Colony South Transformation Ministry is a Christian-based substance abuse treatment facility for adult men who are struggling from addiction to drugs, alcohol, or prescription pills. We are a 6 month in-house Christian renewal center here to help those who really want to change.
We teach that there is victory in living through Jesus Christ and the truths of the Bible. This is done through classroom teaching, DVD’s, counseling, homework, worship services, and work projects. Our pro- gram is designed to provide a vital context in which men are encouraged to know Christ personally and to understand the practical outworking of the word of God in meeting every need. Daily teaching, counseling, devotionals, guided personal Bible study, and prayer provide the means by which these objectives are accom- plished. This, combined with a disciplined schedule, healthful climate, nutritious food, and relaxing recreation, soon restores a measure of physical health and a more positive mental outlook. The residents also partici- pate in routine maintenance of the facilities, general upkeep of the grounds, and community projects. Bethel Colony’s program is primarily designed to produce in each man a more effective lifestyle in which he allows Jesus Christ to take control.
