My name is Sheldon Adkins, I am a grateful believer in Jesus Christ and I struggle with alcoholism.
On Saturday July 9, 2011 ten members of Memorial Road Church of Christ Celebrate Recovery will go to Honduras to provide Celebrate Recovery training to the people of Catacamas, Honduras at Mission Predisan. Every afternoon and evening we will provide training on the seven “keys” to an effective CR program and we will provide additional trainings on leading small groups, leading a step study, how to take someone through the fourth step, and many more trainings. We will also have CR large group and open share meetings on three different evenings while we are there. Two of these evenings will be led predominantly by our CR group and the third night will be led by Hondurans who have already been active in a CR step study.
While in Honduras we will also be building a low ROPES course at CEREPA addiction treatment center. A ROPES course is a therapy tool that involves team-building, communication skills, trust, overcoming fear, problem solving and other challenges people face in everyday life. The ROPES course gives the facilitator a safe environment for participants to face very real challenges in a structured setting. We will be spending the first half of each day we are in Honduras building this course. This mode of therapy can be especially effective with those that struggle with addictions.
Please pray that this mission will happen in accordance with God’s will. Pray that we will get out of the way and let God be fully in control of the work that is done. And most importantly, please pray that the people that come to the training and that receive treatment at CEREPA will learn to know and love our savior, Jesus Christ.
Thank you for your prayers!
Grateful Believer,
