Iron House

This past February 9, Donnie celebrated six months of sobriety, and now spends much of his time researching employment options.

On March 1st, Guiding Light Recovery alumni Shawn, Andy, Allen, Ryan, Mike, Doug P. and Doug Z. had a chance to formally celebrate reaching one year of sobriety.

Eric ventured in and out of detox and rehab centers and medical centers, fighting an addiction to alcohol that he traces back to early high school years.

To us, a client is not a number, a metric, a statistic, or a paycheck; he is a human being that has fallen down and is worthy of God’s grace.

Guiding Light will celebrate the opening of its sixth Iron House this month as two of its clients move into the sober-living apartment building in the City of Kentwood.

DJ’s life was consumed by addiction to alcohol and drugs. After enrolling in Guiding Light’s Recovery Program, he achieved sobriety and found stable employment.

Mike first came through the doors of 255 Division Ave. S. on April 18, COVID-19 still raging through West Michigan.

After years of alcohol use and sporadic relapses throughout his adult life, Jason had enough.

After hitting rock bottom, Andy sought help at Guiding Light Recovery and turned his life around, finding joy, sobriety, and a new job.

Iron House offers sober living apartments to Guiding Light Recovery graduates, fostering goal-setting, support, and successful sobriety.
