The journey from darkness to light is long, made up of many steps – each of them a miracle. With grace and time, these miracles begin to add up. And every day at Guiding Light, we get to witness the result: a movement from despair to hope. From death to life.
Over the past year, Guiding Light has reflected on how best to serve the needs of our changing community, and we are excited to announce plans to expand our life-saving recovery program to include the women of Grand Rapids.
In the waning days of 2022, Guiding Light signed the ink on the purchase of two homes to provide sober living to women in the Grand Rapids area.
We are honored to name one of our Women’s Recovery homes after long-time Guiding Light Spiritual Director Kare Ruth Devos.
