Revive & Restore

A place of healing and hope for those coming out of the throes of addiction.

ABOUT

Our Mission

The Revive & Restore Recovery Ministry at Cornerstone is here to help the hurting, and we offer a safe place of love and acceptance no matter where you have been or what you have done.  

Our purpose is to revive those who are dead in their addiction and to restore them to a life of Godliness by providing positive pathways of growth and encouragement.

We accomplish this mission through weekly large and small group meetings that utilize a twelve-step program and emphasize the power of God’s redeeming love which transforms a person into a new creation in Christ Jesus. 

There are no prerequisites to attend, only a desire to change and the admission that you are powerless to fight the addictions that ensnare you.

Our desire is to remove the shame and stigma of being involved in circumstances that sometimes are out of our control. There is no shame in asking for a helping hand.

Blessings,

Don Walczak, Recovery & Caring Pastor                                                                       recovery@cornerstonelive.net

Finding Redemption: Stories of Christians Who Beat Drug Addiction

Addiction may feel like the end of the story — but through God’s grace, it can become the beginning of redemption. These powerful testimonies reveal how ordinary people found hope in their darkest moments, rediscovered purpose through faith, and experienced lives completely transformed. If you or someone you love has ever struggled with addiction, this story is a reminder that no one is beyond healing, freedom, or a fresh start.

Serenity Prayer

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;
taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;
trusting that You will make all things right if I surrender to Your will;
so that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with You forever in the next. Amen
.

– Reinhold Niebuhr
