Mission Statement: Redeeming Grace Ministries exists to train and equip people to live a life of everlasting recovery through Jesus Christ! We offer a residential program, in East Alabama, for women transitioning out of a correctional facility or rehabilitation program who desire to transform their lives and maintain recovery as thriving, contributing citizens. Our holistic program includes job training, establishing a personal support system, life skills, spiritual growth, and access to professional medical care and counseling.
Volunteer opportunities:
Weekly:
Mentoring: Mentor one woman in the program. A mentor is a vessel used by God to guide, future and coach the mentee into a closer relationship with others and with Jesus Christ. They will help the mentee build a foundation from which they can mature into a person of integrity and purpose. Women only—12 month commitment.
Monthly:
Landscaping: Help with the yard, planting, etc. on a monthly basis.
