Adult and Teen Challenge of the 4 States

Adult & Teen Challenge of the Central Midwest men’s and women’s centers came together for an impactful staff training. It was a valuable time of learning, collaboration, and encouragement, where important insights were shared and our team was strengthened through open communication and a shared vision.
Overall, it was a refreshing and empowering experience that has equipped us to continue serving with renewed focus, purpose, and unity.

Together, we move forward with a shared mission—to put hope within reach!

“He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”* — 2 Corinthians 5:21. This Good Friday, our students had the opportunity to participate in the Neosho Cross Walk, a reminder of Christ's sacrifice and the hope available to all.
If you or someone you know is seeking lasting freedom from addiction or other issues that dominate one's life, there is hope. We currently have openings and are ready to walk with you on this path.

It is with profound shock and sadness that we inform you of the passing of one of our beloved team members, Seth Zerbel. Seth Z, or “Pastor Z” as we loving called him, served as our Academic Dean and Intake coordinator. This means he led the charge of seeking out and escorting the lost and broken into the program, while also overseeing the heartbeat of the Teen Challenge ministry - Discipleship.
Words cannot be found to express our utter shock and brokenness over this loss. Seth lived out His love for Christ radically and loudly for all our students and staff to see every day.
Our entire campus has been undeniably impacted by his walk with the Lord as he made known to the student population that Jesus is their only hope that doesn't fail. All of us at Adult & Teen Challenge Four States have been marked by his life, service and love for Jesus!
Join with us as we hold his wife Emily and family in our prayers. For now, we weep.

"Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all of these things will be added unto you." Matthew 6:33

Whether food or recovery, when we seek God with everything we have, Good things happen. There is hope.

God is so good inspite of our weakness. He gives us strength in the changing seasons. He gives new life in the midst of death and chaos. He brings about His glory in the midst of change. If we can weather the storm while we wait on Him, we can walk on water like Peter did. When life controlling issues bring you to rock bottom, God is there to lift you up into a new light.

If you find yourself or someone you love dealing with a life controlling issue, we want to be God's hand aiding in your recovery. Contact us at (417) 451- 2989 or office@atcmo.org.

We are overwhelmed! We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our wonderful community of friends who gave toward the need for a new oven. Because of your generosity, that need has been graciously met, and we are truly grateful!

If you had still been considering helping, we do want to share that over the last year we have had $3800 in repairs to our current oven. Any additional support toward helping to offset these costs would be a great blessing.

Thank you again for your kindness, prayers, and continued support!

Below is a link to a place to donate towards a new oven. In the memo section put Oven Warming Party or OWP. Our goal is to raise $4,000.

Also, in the picture below is the new oven that we aim to buy.

This machine has fed hundreds of men weary and longing for sustenance. It has seen lives changes, people delivered, and bellies filled. However, it is getting old. Scratch that it is has always been old. It has a lot of issues which have gotten progressively worse to where this machine is barely usable. Here soon we will be trying to replace it. Due to the volume of men we serve we need a commercial unit. They run anywhere from $4,000 to $10,000. If anyone would like to help us feed our men here is an opportunity. We will be setting up some more info in the coming weeks, but for now you can contact us about how to help at 417-451-2980 or office@atcmo.org.
