A recent client of St. Christopher's Inn described his experience this way when he met with TLOA founders,

"I am very grateful that I had an opportunity to come to St. Christopher's. When I arrived in St. Christopher's I was in desperate need of help. The life that I worked so hard to get was starting to fall apart on me. This disease of alcoholism and addiction was taking all that I loved in life away, including my life".

"I am filled with such feelings of gratitude toward the friars, counselors and my peers. The Friars who took us in clothed us, fed us, and gave us a bed to sleep in. The counselors worked with us for over ninety days to unbottle the feelings we had suffered for so many years to get to the core of our addiction. My peers in my support group also played a big role as they themselves shared lots of the same experiences, and provided a shoulder to cry on. This was all within the spirit of helping one another."

"The love that is on this Holy mountain among ourselves with God is really unexplainable. The folks up here gave me a new start and helped me get my life back on track. I want to say thank you".
