ACCEPTANCE/Options

We do encourage loved ones to call on behalf of potential students to gain information about FAL Ministries. It is our goal to give you hope in Jesus.

At some point, applicants must fill out the online application or call FAL Ministries for themselves and express a desire for change. 

The process for acceptance begins at this point. 

There are many different enrollment options. Everyone's journey and life circumstances are different.

It is our goal to assess each individual with placement in mind. That placement may be with an option provided by us or another 

care giving community.

Phase I-Discipline/Self control

Without a doubt, men who are given over to drug addiction/sin lack self-control. At FAL they learn to think of others and love others hopefully as much as they have loved themselves, by seeking an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. During this time, the men are required to attend all meetings, participate in daily devotion, Bible Studies, and live un-selfish lives by serving the community four hours a day without pay. 

As structure, accountability, and discipline are worked into a man’s life, strength of character develops. This enables him to deny temptations and equips him to continue living life in victory!

Phase I- Our Commitment

Our leaders are fully invested in the lives of those who come to live at FAL. Our method of counseling is from the Bible forward. We believe that it is the Word of God that breaks the back of addiction.

Phase I-Spiritual Atmosphere

The presence of the Holy Spirit creates a hunger in these men to know the Lord in a deeper way. Spending time with Him through devotions, studies, chapel, serving, and prayer helps men find genuine repentance that leads to the end of a sinful lifestyle.

Phase I-Your Commitment (Duration & Enrollment Cost)

The in-house program is a minimum commitment of 120 days. The cost of in-house enrollment for the 120 day period is $3,500.00. A deposit of $1,000.00 is due at enrollment. There are scholarships available and work opportunities that will be given to pay your way through this portion of "Your Journey"

We believe here at FAL,  “That which we obtain too easily, we esteem too lightly.” Thomas Paine  

Phase II- Program Overview (Real World Segment)

The transition from Phase I to Phase II is a slow transition. Students will continue the same schedule as Phase I minus the hours they are at work. All students are employed at PRD or Building4Change.  Students move into an apartment on ministry grounds and are given less restrictions but still have accountability.  Here they are provided with a job, a safe structured environment, roommates to come home to after a hard day’s work, and accountability for their walk with God. They will develop a plan to: manage finances, establish identification, address legal concerns, and build relationships.

Phase III- Campus Housing

To prevent our students from returning to the same defeated lifestyle they came from, we continue to walk hand in hand with them while they transition into the real world. In this six-month Phase students move into a house owned by FAL located on our ministry campus.  At this phase of the journey they are expected to be a help to new students that are just beginning their own journey. Our goal is that at the end of Phase III they will have enough savings to secure their own apartment, maintain a relationship with their employer, honor all legal concerns, and be a good son to their Father in Heaven.
