Living Water Residence Program: A Vision Becoming Reality
We are thrilled to announce that God has brought a long-awaited vision to life! In January 2026, Four:10 Ministries will begin accepting applications for our Living Water Residence Program—a two-year residential program designed to serve survivors of sexual exploitation and trafficking. This Christ-centered program provides women with the structure, care, and support they need to rebuild their lives, heal from trauma, and grow in faith. We are deeply grateful to Redemption House, a local nonprofit that serves women transitioning from incarceration, for generously leasing one of their properties to us. Their CEO, Tomi Carden, and her incredible staff have faithfully shared the love of Jesus with countless women, and we are honored to partner with them in extending that same hope and transformation.
A Journey of Healing and Restoration
The Living Water Residence Program will guide women through three carefully designed phases over 24 months. In the first phase (3–4 months), residents will focus on overcoming substance use through intensive outpatient treatment, recovery meetings, trauma therapy, and psychoeducational classes. The second phase (5–12 months) will help women begin working part-time, develop life skills, and continue therapy and recovery work while learning to save toward graduation. During the third phase (13–24 months), residents will transition to full-time work, maintain accountability through support groups and mentoring, and set long-term goals for independence and stability with the help of an advocate.
Modeled on Proven Success, Rooted in Christ
Our program is modeled after Thistle Farms in Nashville, TN—an organization that has served this population for 28 years with remarkable results. Seventy-five percent of their graduates remain clean and sober, live independently, and have not returned to exploitation, with many even reunited with their children. We desire to see the same transformation in the women God will entrust to us. While we know programs and therapy are powerful tools, we firmly believe that it is Jesus Christ who brings true healing and restoration. Our prayer is that every woman who enters the Living Water Residence will not only rebuild her life but will also come to a saving faith in Him before she graduates.
