Path of Life Recovery

The POLR Purpose:

To connect hurting and/or struggling people—those experiencing addiction, anxiety, depression, effects of abuse, grief, and so much more—to Jesus and to a loving, accepting, and supportive community for healing, freedom, and life restoration.

Wednesdays at House of Prayer—Thibodaux

Doors Open 6:30 PM | Meeting Begins 7 PM

Who It’s For:

Anyone 21 and older ready to change their life for the better. Whether you’re just starting your recovery journey or continuing it, there’s a place for you at POLR.

Our Approach:

POLR is a Christ-centered, Bible-based 12-Step recovery approach. Each step leads to genuine repentance and transformation through the power of the gospel (Romans 1:16; 2:4). We emphasize community, accountability, and unconditional love, believing real recovery happens through Christ-centered relationships.

Church-Connected Recovery:

We operate under the spiritual covering of House of Prayer—Thibodaux and our Pastor, Josh Melancon. We encourage our members to engage with the full life of the church through NextStep, Community Groups (POLR included), Core Classes, Gospel Classes, and the School of Discipleship.

What to Expect on a Wednesday Night:

  • 6:30 PM: Doors open. Hang out, meet people, and feel the love of a family already praying for you.

  • 7:00 PM: The meeting begins with prayer and announcements.

  • Worship: We worship together in song and prepare our hearts for the lesson.

  • Lesson: A powerful and life-changing recovery teaching based on one of the steps, taught by our POLR pastor or one of the POLR Leaders, with handouts that help participants follow along and provide relevant content to focus on throughout the week.

  • POLR Groups: Gender-specific small groups gather after the lessons to reflect on the teaching, share our victories, seek support in our struggles and grow in Christ-centered relationships. POLR Groups are truthful, loving “No Judgment Zones” where you are fully accepted.

Experience It for Yourself:

POLR’s not about you just attending a meeting—it’s an invitation to join a family. Come as you are and experience the life change God intends for you. And learn the eternal truth that King Solomon wrote: “A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better…” (Ecclesiastes 4:12)
