Name of reference ___________________________ Phone # _____________________ Relationship to you ___________________________ We believe our volunteers need to demonstrate Christian character and high moral values. The Scriptures give us instructions for holy living, such as found in Galatians 5:19-23. The use of illegal drugs, viewing of pornographic materials, sexual involvement outside of a marriage relationship and gay lifestyle are incongruent with the Christian standards of character and morality we promote. Our mission is to be a healing and safe place for all people; we support those in recovery and in transformation. For this reason we discourage the use of tobacco and alcohol. Is your life free from these and other behavioral patterns which would not be honoring to God? Yes No
