Greetings and salutations from Tipton County. 

First, let me introduce myself. My name is Lance Newcomb. I have been blessed to become the new director of Safe Harbor of Tipton County. I have been with Safe Harbor, in some capacity, since 2016 and have seen the Lord do some wonderful things in my life as well as our company and am so excited to be in this new role as director of Tipton County. I have worked in several aspects of this ministry, and am excited about the newest chapter in my life, as well as the time ahead in this city. 

We have hit the ground running with renovations in our new administration building and trying to build our clients up so that they are ready for their new life upon graduating our program. We currently have 4 very strong partners where we are sending our clients to work in hopes of them gaining and promoting established skills. Apart from that, we have 2+ partners that we should prayerfully be starting this month to help our clients in this aspect of the program. We are also partnering with our IOP program to give our clients even more tools to help them in their success and through these combined efforts, we are seeing lives change for the better. 

Our work program is only a portion of our program. We are very proud of the classes and counseling that our men receive on a daily basis. Our classes consist of fatherhood, relapse prevention, anger management, pastoral support, employment skills, and money management. We believe that these classes offer our clients the opportunity to gain knowledge from learned counselors during groups and gives them the opportunity to voice their experience in this environment. 

Last, but not least, I was able to be a part of my first graduation with our men and let me tell you, I was so excited for them. I have seen these very people come into our program doubting every aspect of their lives and to see them turn that around and find confidence in themselves and their God is a joy that I can not express on paper. This is something that one would have to see in person. 

As stated earlier, it has been a route where we hit the ground running, and me and my team have no intention of slowing down now.

Our goal is to help men who have strayed from their path to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose, and Make a Difference. We are not able do all of this without our Corporate Partners.

The Partner of the 3rd Quarter for Tipton County is Runyon Industries. 

Runyon is a huge key to our men’s success. They offer a competitive wage, great work environment, and they show our men they care every day.

We want to give a special thanks to everyone at Runyon for the charitable contributions for our new facility in Tipton County and for the support of our event, Battle in the Saddle. Not only do you employ our men, but you believe in what we do wholeheartedly. We look forward to many more years with Runyon Industries by our side.

Staff of the Quarter - Billy Rickard

Mr. Billy Rickard has been a great asset to not only our team here at Safe Harbor of Tipton County, but a blessing to myself and others around me. He is the Reliable Coordinator working night and day to help these men get jobs to change lives. It is an honor to be working with Mr. Rickard.

"As a client coming into the ministry I'd have to say, I was struggling. I decided, once I spent a few days, to give this place my full attention. I cut out all the old behavior I had been used to and that is when things started to change for me. I started dedicating myself to Safe Harbor and also the men who could use my help. Once I did these things my life changed one hundred percent. My perspective and my focus are completely for my new life. I would like to thank God first for keeping His hand on me as He has and I want everyone to know. I wake up thankful and blessed every single day and I know the next right thing starts with God!!!

PRAYER AND MEDITATION"
