COMMITMENT PLEDGE

I will live my life of freedom to the utmost. I will honor my mind, body and spirit by maintaining a relationship with God. I dedicate myself to completing Justin’s Place Recovery Program.

I will honor this commitment by bettering my life for myself, my family, and my community here today.

I seek to serve Christ and ask His guidance upon my life day by day, so I can shine as a light of hope in a dark world.

By honoring this commitment, I am building a life free of harmful substances and a future dedicated to serving others and giving back the gift of freedom, that was so graciously extended to me.
