  • Quantum Recovery Dharma (QRD)

    Thursday 6:30 pm

    Quantum Recovery Dharma (QRD) is an innovative and well-structured recovery program, with strong potential to empower participants by blending ancient wisdom with modern science. It approaches recovery by focusing on the Consciousness grounded in accessible quantum science, blending in therapeutic frequencies, and embracing ancient Buddhist teachings.  Appealing to a wide audience, QRD offers a transformative vision to success in life.

    QRD offers a Pathway for recovery from substance use disorders (SUD), process additions (gambling, eating, sex, etc.) and emotional trauma (PTSD).  Participants take refuge in QRD’s dual foundations: Spiritual (Buddhism) and/or Science (Quantum Physics).

  • Smart Recovery (SM)

    Saturday 10:30 am

    SMART Recovery is an evidenced-informed recovery method grounded in Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), that supports people with substance dependencies or problem behaviors to:

    Build and maintain motivation

    Cope with urges and cravings

    Manage thoughts, feelings and behaviors

    Live a balanced life

  • Narcotics Anonymous (NA)

    Monday 6:30

    NA is a nonprofit fellowship or society of men and women for whom drugs had become a major problem. We are  recovering addicts who meet regularly to help each other to stay clean.


    There are no dues or fees. The only requirement for membership is the desire to stop using. You don’t have to be clean when you get here, but after your first meeting we suggest that you keep coming back and come clean. You don’t have to wait for an overdose or jail sentence to get help from NA, nor is addiction a hopeless condition from which there is no recovery. It is possible to overcome the desire to use drugs with the help of the Twelve Step program of Narcotics Anonymous and the fellowship of recovering addicts.

    If life has become unmanageable and you want to live without it being necessary to use drugs, we have found a way.

  • Life Recovery

    Friday, 6:30pm-8pm

    In-person Open Meeting/Mixed Group

    This Life Recovery group is open to all who wish to attend. We do not focus on specific addictions or problems, but rather a biblical approach to whatever your problem may be. The literature used is The Life Recovery Bible, which is “a unique tool that brings 12-step recovery back to its original source- God’s Word” (- The Life Recovery Bible) in addition to The Life Recovery Workbook.

    These meetings are structured with an emphasis and discussion on the monthly step as well as a corresponding Bible lesson. Group discussions, testimonies and praise reports are encouraged. We strive to portray the hope and light that Christ gives when we choose to surrender to Him to those still lost in addiction and/or the behaviors that accompany it. We strive to leave the 99 for the 1 that is lost.

    No matter where you are in life, no matter the choices you’ve made, come let us love on you and tell you about The Way out. We’d love to see you there.

    If you have questions about this group or would like resources to other Life Recovery meetings on the Gulf Coast please contact:
