We Help Women Rewrite Their Stories

Our Impact

Christina’s Story

After getting my current clean date of May 9, 2023, I was completely aware that I would be needing to start all areas of my life over. Priority was my housing. In the past, this has been sober livings, so I knew that I needed a sober living again. God put a couple of women in my life through social media. I stayed in contact and trusted the process. These women are currently my manager and my roommate. My roommate has turned into my best friend. Through Heart2Serve I’ve been guided and shown a new way of life. Not only a new way of life, but all expectations of mine have been exceeded. I thank God on a daily basis for bringing me to Heart2Serve.

Sara’s Story

When I got to Heart2Serve, I had just completed rehab. I was so scared to go into a sober living because of the "fear of the unknown". When I got here, I was welcomed with open arms and open hearts. From the first step into the house, I was immediately a part of something bigger—God, family, friends, love and hope. With the help of H2S I have been able to take care of my legal issues, also my dental, physical and mental health. It was the love and support of H2S that has helped to better me as a person, a sober sister and a friend.

Ricky’s Story

I am grateful for Heart2Serve because you guys took me in when I had no clue where to go. I can genuinely say you guys have played a big part in my recovery. Since I've been here, I've got a job, got a sponsor, feel like I'm actually working an honest program and am happy to be sober. I have struggled with my addiction for years, rehab to rehab, constantly relapsing, going place to place. This is the first time I can honestly say I don't want to use anymore. Yes, I still struggle some days but I just continue to do my best and take it one day at a time. Thank you Hearts2Serve. I appreciate and love you guys for helping me in growth and road to recovery.

Deanna’s Story

My name is Deanna. I’m a 56-year-old mother and grandmother. I have had a rough past, childhood trauma, adolescence trauma and adult/marriage trauma.  After receiving my third DUI, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ answered my number one question, “Why me Lord?”. He said as clear as day, “You are a diseased alcoholic”.  There is no getting around that. I am a true diseased alcoholic.

First, I told my kids who told me to call my job and get a number for help.  Then I called my lawyer. He said the same thing, “Call your job and ask for help”. I made that call, and by the end of the night, I was placed in a wonderful rehabilitation program. I stayed for as long as possible. I wanted to be successful in sobriety. After that, I knew I had to put myself in a sober living environment. I still needed the help and tools to succeed outside of rehabilitation facility.  

 I ended up at this sober living house that offered a godly environment with the 12-step program. It was far away for me, but I had to take it because I wasn’t ready to go home. I lasted there one month. The person there ran it for selfish motives, under the guise of being a sobriety sister. 

Then I found Heart 2 Serve. It was close to my job and this was the place I was looking for; I just didn’t look hard enough. My Lord and Savior brought me here. I was apprehensive at first but I am following Jesus now.

 I thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for bringing me here. The moment I walked in, I could feel God’s presence. The women here are so welcoming and are working an honest program. It is a safe, loving, and caring environment. It truly is a home of recovery and healing tools to help us get to the next chapter.  I’m living independently in a sober world of self-worth, faith, happiness, love and peace. I’m grateful to have my serenity back. With God, my AA program, my sponsor and Heart2 Serve, I have peace of mind one day at a time.

Sydney’s Story

Heart2Serve has been absolutely life changing for me. I came in as a broken, depressed, lost individual. Within my few months here, I have found happiness and love in myself. The growth and change are noticeable to not only myself but to my family and everyone around me. I have been blessed with such a huge support system and found true friendship and sisterhood in our homes. Heart2Serve has provided me with a great therapist who I get to talk with about my struggles on a weekly basis, and in return, gain the tools and knowledge needed to help myself. They have supported me through my court cases and given me guidance to help me succeed. I absolutely love my life, and I know that none of this would not be possible without Heart2Serve. I am truly beyond blessed to be here and eternally grateful.

Jessica’s Story

When I first came to Heart2Serve, I was so broken, defeated, and could not stay sober. I was still in so much denial of how bad my alcoholism really was. I was very hesitant because I had never set foot in a sober living in my entire life and still didn’t believe I belonged in one, but this was my last chance at attempting sobriety, and I finally decided to humble myself and ask for help.

The women here welcomed me with open arms, and I felt as though I was no longer alone. The stigma I had placed in my head prior to coming here had disappeared. I was right where I was supposed to be, with other women who had been through similar struggles. I was given grace when I didn’t deserve it and encouraged by the women who I have met here. The friendships, fellowship, structure, and growth while I have been here is priceless. These things were so vital in my sobriety journey, and I probably would have never obtained any of those had I not come to live at Heart2Serve. I have restored broken family and friend relationships, my health, my self-esteem and my self-worth. Heart2Serve has, and will always be, a part of my sobriety journey. Thank you will never be enough to this place. I can’t wait to give back someday and help the next person the way I was helped along the way.
