The Jeremiah Tree is a residential, full-time, life-intensive experience that points men trapped in addiction to the transformational power of Christ.
Our program Our program is a 12-month, highly structured residential discipleship program with two phases, the TreeHouse and the GreenHouse. A number of our men come to us from prison and have nothing when they arrive. We know we cannot cause the change for our men, but we can and do give them the tools to be successful.
The TreeHouse is the recovery phase of our program. Here the men break old patterns and establish new patterns. The men spend several hours each day in Bible study. They also do community service, do their own laundry and chores, cook, keep tidy rooms with room inspections, have counseling, meet with their parole officers (if they have one), go to recovery meetings, establish a relationship with at least one mentor, etc. In nice weather the men play basketball or do other games outdoors. They mow the lawn and may help in the garden. Some of our men have never learned how to do those things, so there may be a big learning curve. Some of our residents are artists or musicians so we seek ways to give them creative outlets as well. Contact with friends and family is very limited at this point. Sadly, even family has often been a poor influence on our residents.
The GreenHouse is the transition phase of our program. Here the men get jobs and are given the tools they need to be successful when they re-enter society. We offer financial and other life-skills classes to help them. The men continue in Bible study, recovery meetings, counseling, meeting with mentors, household chores, have room inspections, etc. The men do give a small portion of their wages to the shared expenses of the ministry so that they learn how to keep current with bills and rent. This part of the program is currently being expanded and solidified.
