01 / OUR MISSION
The next chapter
deserves a
strong foundation.
A completed recovery program is a meaningful milestone. A stable life takes continued support.
Housing, employment, education, and transportation can still stand between a man and his next step. Gunner’s Ridge is being developed to help bridge that gap.
Our mission is to provide a structured Christian aftercare environment where men can strengthen recovery, rebuild daily living skills, and prepare for responsible independent living.

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
Looking
ahead.
Clear expectations matter.
Here’s where the ministry stands today.
Is Gunner’s Ridge open yet?
Not yet. Gunner’s Ridge is in development. The business plan begins with 2027, but an opening date depends on sufficient funding, approved facilities, staffing, and operational readiness. Applications are not currently open through this website.
Who is the planned program for?
The proposed program will serve adult men ready for a structured Christian aftercare residence. Each applicant will be assessed individually to determine whether his needs can be supported by the available staff and outside providers. Final eligibility and admission procedures will be published before opening.
What does Christian aftercare mean?
Our vision combines Christian discipleship and community with practical help for daily life: housing, work preparation, education, routines, and accountability. It supports the transition toward independent living after recovery.
Will residents contribute financially?
The current plan includes an $800 monthly resident contribution. Payment terms, hardship assistance, and related policies will be established before admissions begin.
How long will residents stay?
A six- to twelve-month stay is a planning assumption, not a fixed promise. Progress and transition will depend on individual readiness and the final program structure.
How can I get involved?
We envision support from individuals, church partners, businesses, and skilled volunteers. Explore the opportunities above and download the vision overview below. Official contact and giving details will be added before the public launch.
