Hello, I'm pastor Jim Watson. In order to change, you need some time away to reorient the direction of your life, to develop a plan for changing and to connect with God. That is the purpose of our twenty-eight day day retreats. Change is not a matter of willpower or determination. People trapped in addiction are very strong-willed, not weak and spineless. If will-power could change you, you wouldn’t be reading this website. You would already be free from addiction. Only God can make a lasting change in your life that will set you free from the trap of addiction. At the Help Me Change Retreat Center, we help you encounter God. We help you develop a structure and discipline for your life that will allow God’s grace to transform your life and help you overcome your addiction. Please call us to make arrangements and understand why our retreat is your best option at lasting recovery: 219 232-6294 and visit us at http://www.HelpMeChange.net Hopeful, Pastor Jim Watson
