Wiseman Lighthouse Ministries is a 1-year, Christ-centered program designed to help women and also women with children.
It is a voluntary program, serving women from a variety of backgrounds.
For some women, this is the chance to get their children back who are involved in a CPS case and who may be living in foster care.
For all women, it the Lighthouse is a safe, loving, home environment where residents are in a highly structured and supervised environment.
The emphasis is on transformation through a life-giving discipleship program. The daily schedule includes addiction recovery programs, life skills, parenting, job readiness, GED study (if needed), and social skills.
These classes are offered on a daily basis throughout our 1 year program.
Women in our program get daily Bible study classes where they learn about God and how to form a lasting relationship with our Lord and Savior.
Women are also involved in daily work chores and assignments.
These tasks teach them responsibility and self-discipline needed for change and growth.
Our program has four phases, each of which carries individual goals and requirements in order to move up in the program.
In phases 1 and 2 the women are required to memorize scriptures, complete book assignments, and attend all classes and church services that we provide.
Phases 3 and 4 are individualized to meet our resident’s personal needs but usually include locating work and transitioning back into the world.
Although our program is approximately a year in length, we understand that each person is unique and therefore we do not require women to leave before they are ready to rejoin society. We have an extension to our program called “Transitional stage” where she can stay and pay nominal rent while taking advantage of the structure of the program and also continuing to save money to get out on her own. While in the program, each woman is assigned to a mentor with whom they meet with once a week.
These meetings give the resident the opportunity to share their struggles, talk about their progress, and pray with their mentor.
During their time at Wiseman Lighthouse Ministries the residents will find a sponsor through one of their recovery programs such as Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous or other Recovery courses in the community.
They also connect with local churches and learn about becoming servants and ministers themselves.
We currently serve women and their children. We have full time and part time staff members.
We are a Christ-centered faith based organization which provides no-cost services to our residents and we are funded by churches, organizations and individuals.
