🌿Today we celebrate Nicole Arnsmeyer on her last day on staff at Healing House!

Nicole’s journey with us has been one of incredible growth and service. She came to Healing House in 2021 as a participant, soon began leading our GED program, and went on to serve as receptionist, then grant writer, and finally Manager of the Region 1 Access Site.

Nicole has touched countless lives with her compassion and dedication. Though she’s leaving her staff role, she’ll continue teaching, sponsoring, and staying involved in our community. 💜

“Healing House will always be home for me,” Nicole says — and we couldn’t agree more. Thank you, Nicole, for all you’ve done! Best wishes dear friend!🌟💙

🎶 A Night of Worship & Connection 🎶

Our Healing House community was truly blessed last Saturday to welcome Brendan Brooks to the RCC! 🙏 Since 2017, Brendan has been part of the Healing House family—a talented singer/songwriter, a man of deep faith, and living proof of God’s glory and grace.

He led us in a beautiful time of worship, sharing his musical gifts and heartfelt testimony. For a couple of hours, the room was filled with music, joy, and the Spirit—creating the perfect atmosphere to connect with our Higher Power and with one another. 💜

Thank you, Brendan, for reminding us of the power of worship through music and for continuing to inspire our community!
