🎃👻 SPOOKY SEASON, BLISS HOUSE STYLE! 👻🎃

We've got a house full of women who have survived some pretty questionable life choices, found themselves in places most people wouldn't dare go, and lived through situations that would make a horror movie look like a Disney special.

But apparently, somebody jumping out from behind a wall in a Halloween mask is where we draw the line. 🤣💀

Our ladies headed to Taylorsville Terror for our annual haunted house outing, and it was a night full of screams, laughter, and memories!

One of the things we love most about recovery is watching these ladies learn how to enjoy life again. For so long, fun was often tied to chaos, consequences, or things they'd rather forget. Today, they're learning that some of the best memories are made with a clear mind, genuine friendships, and absolutely no regrets the next morning.

These outings may seem like simple nights of fun, but to us, they're so much more. They're opportunities to build friendships, step outside comfort zones, and experience the joy that comes with building a new way of life.

Recovery isn't just about the life you leave behind. It's about the life you get to build. ❤️

And if that new life occasionally involves screaming your head off and running from someone with a fake chainsaw, well… that's just part of the fun! 🤣🎃👻🦇

❤️ A HUGE Thank You to Amazon! ❤️

We want to take a moment to recognize and thank Amazon for their incredible generosity and continued support of our mission!

Every single month, Amazon donates pallets of food, hygiene products, cleaning supplies, and other essential items that make a tremendous difference in the lives of those we serve.

But their generosity doesn't stop there!

This month's donation included something extra special: toboggans, gloves, socks, ponchos, hand warmers, and emergency blankets that our Food Pantry can distribute to our houseless friends as the colder months approach. ❤️

For someone facing the cold without a warm place to call home, these aren't just supplies. They're warmth, comfort, dignity, and a reminder that their community cares.

Donations like these allow us to stretch our resources further, meet more needs, and continue serving individuals and families throughout our community.

Amazon, thank you for showing up for our community month after month. Your generosity reaches far beyond the pallets you deliver. It reaches real people, meets real needs, and makes a real difference.

We are so grateful for this partnership and the compassion behind it! ❤️

💙💚 A heartfelt THANK YOU to the Community Foundation of Southern Indiana!

Bliss House is incredibly grateful to have been awarded a $5,000 grant to support our mission of helping women rebuild their lives through recovery.

Your generosity helps us continue providing a safe, supportive environment where women can find hope, healing, and a fresh start.

Thank you for believing in our mission and investing in second chances! We are truly grateful for your continued support of our community. 💙💚

Recovery takes courage – and it also takes a strong support system.

Our third Competitive Grant recipient is Center for Lay Ministries Food Pantry & Bliss House, which has received $5,000 to support Bliss House, its long-term residential recovery program for women overcoming substance use disorder.

At Bliss House, women have a safe place to focus on what comes next. Along with structured recovery support, residents receive help developing life skills, finding employment, building accountability, and working toward greater self-sufficiency – all while creating a foundation for lasting recovery.

Approximately 30 women will benefit from the program and the support surrounding them. We’re proud to invest in work that helps women move forward, reconnect with their families and build toward a more stable future.

And with three recipients announced, we still have two more celebrations to share next week!

❤️ HELP NEEDED!!! Let’s show up for two teenage girls in need! ❤️
I have a very dear, servant-hearted friend who has unexpectedly opened her home to two teenage girls who needed a safe place to live. Her and her husband didn’t hesitate.. they simply said yes and opened their door and their heart.
Right now, these girls are starting over with very little of their own, and I would LOVE for us to rally around this family and help make sure they have what they need. 🫶🏼
Here is a little about them:
💕 Girl #1 — 15, turning 16 in October
• Clothing: Small/Medium — prefers a baggier fit
• Loves sweats & hoodies
• Shoes: Size 6
• Loves painting & drawing
💕 Girl #2 — 13, turning 14 in October
• Clothing: Medium
• Loves baggy jeans & graphic tees
• Shoes: Size 8½
• Enjoys exercising & taking walks
They are getting twin beds, but beyond that, think about anything a teenage girl would need when starting from scratch.
Clothes, shoes, socks, underwear, bras, pajamas, coats, toiletries, hair care, feminine products, backpacks, school supplies, blankets, pillows, twin bedding, towels, storage totes/dressers, hangers, art supplies, water bottles, gift cards.. anything that could help make a new space feel like THEIR space and give them some normalcy.
New items would be wonderful, and if you have gently used clothing or other items in great condition that fit their sizes/styles, please reach out to me.
And with BOTH of their birthdays coming up in October, I would absolutely love to see them not only have the things they need, but maybe even a few things they simply want. Every teenager deserves that. ❤️
My friend has a servant's heart and is always willing to show up for other people. Now I want to help make sure she knows she doesn't have to do this alone.
If you feel led to help in ANY way, please message me. Even if you can't donate, sharing this post would mean so much.
It really does take a village...and I know firsthand what this village can do when someone needs us. 🫶🏼❤️
