How the program works

## The first step is simple

Where to start

## Choose your situation

### I am struggling with addiction myself

Admitting you need help is already the hardest step. From here, you will not walk alone.

### I am a relative or a loved one

You love them — and you are exhausted. That is okay. You deserve support no less than they do.

Who this program is for

## This program is for you if:

- You or someone close to you struggles with alcohol, drugs or another addiction.
- You are tired of promises to "quit on my own" and do not know what to do next.
- You are a relative and feel powerless, afraid or emptied out.
- You want help but cannot afford a paid center.

How the program works

## The Gospel, prayer, honest conversation and responsibility

Each session can include reading and reflecting on the Gospel, prayer, an emotional and practical part, and concrete steps for the week ahead.

01

### Reading the Gospel

A short passage — and a real conversation about what it means for you right now.

02

### Prayer

Not a ritual, but an honest conversation with God. Many people pray for the first time here.

03

### Talking with a mentor

Talk about what is really going on. No judgment, no advice from above.

04

### Steps for the week

One small, concrete task — something you can do before the next meeting.

No two meetings are alike. Some begin with questions about faith. Others — with what happened yesterday. The mentor walks beside you, not ahead of you.

Words from those who walked this road

> I came without believing anything would come of it. Today I have a completely different life.

— Andrey

> It turned out that to love is not to control.

— a participant's father

> For the first time in years I am not doing this alone or in fear.

— a participant's wife

Who runs the program

The program is led not by credentialed therapists, but by people who have been through addiction themselves and come out of it — there are four of them right now, each with 6–9 years of sobriety and their own story: drugs, alcohol, relapses, rebuilding a family, the path of a woman in addiction. We deliberately do not publish their surnames or photos — it is a matter of respect for each person’s journey. But their stories are real, and you can read about each of them.

## Is this a cult?

No one will force you to do anything. This is not a cult, not a clinic and not an AA group. It is a real conversation with someone you can trust. Faith helps, but participation is built on your own free choice.

Common questions

### Is it free?

Yes. This is a volunteer program — we do not charge for participation. Ever.

### Is this a cult?

No. We require no money, no attendance, no giving up your family or church. You can leave at any time.

### Does the program replace a doctor?

No. In case of a threat to life, withdrawal, psychosis or another dangerous condition, contact emergency services.
