At Safe Harbor, we take great pride in helping develop both the spiritual life and the financial stability of the men in our program. We are grateful for the opportunity to put them to work, help them come to know God, find freedom, and build a solid foundation for life after they graduate from our program.

At this time, we are knee-deep in remodeling our staff house, and we have big plans for what it will become. In addition, our West House is beginning to be restored and is on its way to becoming even better than it has ever been.


In addition to the work being done on our facilities, this past quarter has been full of meaningful opportunities for growth and connection for the men in our program. A group of clients attended a special event hosted by Running Free Ministry, where Todd Pierce shared a powerful message about being “tamed” by the Holy Spirit. Using his experience of training horses, he illustrated what it looks like to surrender and be led by God. He also took time to personally pray with several of our men, making a lasting impact on their spiritual journey.


Some of our clients were also able to attend a Christian rock concert, where they not only enjoyed a night of worship and music but were given the opportunity for a meet and greet with band members. This experience was made possible through the growth and progress they have demonstrated while in the program.


We were also proud to have 14 clients volunteer their time to help clean up a local community garden. We are excited to see how this effort will contribute to a fruitful harvest in 2026. Additionally, clients participating in the Life Recovery Group at Cornerstone Church were treated to a special outing to see "David" at a local theater alongside members of the Tipton County staff, providing both encouragement and fellowship.


We want to thank God for all the blessings He continues to bestow upon us and for the ability to serve through the work of Safe Harbor.


Director, Joshua Screws

Client of the Quarter - G.B.


"For over twenty years, my life was controlled by addiction. Pills, heroin, meth, and fentanyl had such a grip on me that I truly believed I would never be free. I had tried to quit more times than I can count, promising myself and others that this time would be different, only to fall back into the same cycle of pain, shame, and hopelessness. Eventually, I reached a place where I had completely given up. I didn’t believe freedom was possible for someone like me.


But God had other plans.


When I came to Safe Harbor, I was broken, tired, and desperate. I didn’t have the strength or the answers, but Safe Harbor met me right where I was. Through their Christ-centered program, I began to experience something I hadn’t felt in a long time: hope. They didn’t just help me break free from addiction; they helped me rebuild my life from the inside out.


Most importantly, Safe Harbor helped restore my relationship with God. For so long, I had drifted away, feeling unworthy and too far gone. But through prayer, guidance, and the love shown to me by the people here, I came to understand that God had never left me. His grace covered even my darkest moments, and His mercy gave me a new beginning.


Today, I stand in a place I never thought possible, I am free. Not just from drugs, but from the chains that kept me bound for so many years. I have peace, purpose, and a renewed sense of direction in my life.


I am incredibly humbled and grateful to now be a part of the Safe Harbor ministry. To go from being someone in need of help to someone who can help others is something I don’t take lightly. It is a daily reminder of how powerful God’s redemption truly is.


God’s timing is perfect. Even when I couldn’t see it, He was working behind the scenes, preparing a way for me. Safe Harbor was a part of that plan, and through it, I have found not only freedom, but purpose again.


If my story can show anything, it’s this: no one is ever too far gone. There is always hope, there is always healing, and through God, there is always a way back."
