Garden of Hope

A Tribute to Regrowth and Recovery

Gardens nurture us, not just by providing us with produce, but by satisfying our souls and spirit. 40 years ago, Hope House Ministries’ journey began on the hallowed grounds of the Little Portion Friary in Mt. Sinai. During the past 18 months, our many creative, talented, and dedicated young men have endeavored to design and create the conceptual plan depicted here.

As each of our current residents and alumni face the challenges of their own recovery, they have chosen to honor and remember their brothers who have succmbed to their addictions. It is through their energy and passion that this Commemorative Garden has now become a reality.

Project Plans

Work on the Garden of Hope continues this spring.  There are plans to create 12 stations of the cross, referencing the 12 Steps to Recovery, that will adorn the garden.  Our young men are designing natural plaques and benches that will be found throughout the garden commemorating our donors and their fallen brothers. There are many levels of contribution and we are appreciative of whatever you have to offer.

Your contributions will make the garden bloom this spring and help us celebrate the lives of all of the young men and women who have been impacted by Hope House Ministries.

Donations are accepted at any dollar amount or you can opt to make an In-Kind donations instead.
