Celebrate Recovery
Celebrating recovery honors the strength it takes to overcome lifes challenges, the courage to start over, and the hope that fuels lasting change. It reminds us, and the world, that recovery is possible, lives can be rebuilt, and joy can be found in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Every
story deserves to be seen, heard, and celebrated.
Empower Lives
Celebrating empowers individuals by replacing shame with pride, isolation with community, and fear with hope. These moments of celebration remind people that their journey matters, that they are not alone, and that a full, purposeful life is possible. It builds confidence, inspires others, and fuels lasting transformation.
Build Community
Celebrating brings people together by sharing hope, healing, and purpose. It breaks down stigma and creates space for real connection, between individuals in recovery, their families, faith leaders, professionals, and supporters. Through events, stories, music, and prayer, it turns strangers into allies and builds a supportive network where everyone is seen, valued, and uplifted.

Our Mission is Personal
Our family’s journey is a testimony of recovery, restoration, and the redeeming power of our Lord Jesus Christ. What once seemed broken beyond repair has been rebuilt by His grace.
Amber and Haydn’s lives are living examples of God’s power to restore. Their paths were long and difficult, yet the Lord never released His hold on them. Through faith, prayer, community, and support, both are now walking in recovery. Their transformation has strengthened our entire family and ignited a calling within us to walk alongside others seeking freedom, healing, and a renewed life in Christ.
While God has brought healing, our journey has also been marked by loss. We continue to carry the memory of two precious family members, Evan and Krisa, whose lives ended far too soon. Krisa passed on April 5, 2025, leaving behind four beautiful children who remain close to our hearts. Evan, who left us on June 22, 2019, was a man full of joy, generosity, and music.
Though our hearts still ache, we trust that God brings beauty even from sorrow and purpose from pain.
At each of our festivals, Evan and Krisa are honored on a special banner—not as symbols of loss, but as reminders of why recovery matters and why hope must be shared. Their legacy lives on through the lives being touched, restored, and redirected toward Christ.
Today, our mission is rooted in recovery and discipleship. Whether you are walking your own recovery journey, supporting someone you love, or searching for hope, we want you to know this: freedom is possible through Jesus Christ. No one walks alone, and no story is ever beyond redemption.
Join us in the movement of hope, healing, and recovery.
