Secrets keep us and our loved ones trapped in addictions. Often people are so ashamed they don’t want anyone at church to know. There is hope if you struggle with addiction. A member who has been through this journey is ready to provide the support and encouragement needed for recovery. Please complete this form in confidence and you will be contacted and connected to support and caring. You are not alone.
Addiction Resources

Action / goals

Gloria Dei Lutheran is a Community Committed to Facing Addiction
Gloria Dei is committed to creating a culture of trust, care, and openness for those impacted by addiction. Other congregations across Sioux Falls are also joining us in this venture.

This initiative is designed to reduce barriers by changing how we think about the disease of addiction, those impacted and how we can support them. By transforming our community's attitudes about addiction, we hope that more people will get well and stay well.
