Stability First

Stability First Our Mission: Changing lives through stability, hope, and Christ. We work alongside our neighbors to identify resources and find solutions together.

Our Vision: By focusing on development over betterment, we sow the seeds for healthy and thriving lives. Stability First is a faith‐based initiative born out of the Morgan County Bridges Out of Poverty. Our programs include transitional housing as well as a circle of services geared toward assisting low income families in increasing financial stability and self-sufficiency. Below are the primary m

inistries of Stability First:

1. The Magdalene House is a facility for women without dependents. It provides housing and supportive services for up to 16 women. Our goal is to walk alongside women as they gain the stability need to live on their own. The program is faith-based and focused on an individualized, goal oriented process.
2. Foundations is a non-residential program providing spiritual mentoring, goal setting and accountability tools, as well as life coaching for men. Stability First envisions a residential program reinforcing these goals in the near future, as God provides.
3. The LYNAY Center is a multipurpose facility housing additional services to address poverty issues in Morgan County. Programming includes men’s outreach coaching sessions, recovery group meetings and educational, job and career exploration opportunities.
4. Maggie Bags is an entrepreneurial support ministry. The efforts of Magdalene House residents are combined with volunteers seamstresses to create beautiful women’s cross-body shoulder bags. Shelter residents learn sewing skills along with valuable job skills. Bags can be purchased at the Maggie Bag Boutique or online at www.maggie-bags.com

πŸ“± A Successful Day at Healing Harbor!

Yesterday, we partnered with Constellation Wireless to help connect members of our community with a vital resourceβ€”a reliable phone.

We're excited to share that 7 individuals received phones, providing access to employment opportunities, healthcare, emergency contacts, family connections, community resources, and so much more.

The need was clear, and we're thrilled to announce that this opportunity will now be available on the second Tuesday of every month at Healing Harbor!

Whether you're seeking a phone for yourself or know someone who may qualify, we encourage you to join us at a future event. Our goal is to continue removing barriers and connecting people with resources that promote stability, independence, and well-being throughout our community.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and helped make this event a success. We look forward to serving even more of our neighbors next month! πŸ’™

Have you marked your calendar yet?

On **June 24th from 4:30–6:30 PM**, Stability First will be filled with beautiful handmade Maggie Bags, summer-inspired styles, refreshments, and the women whose hard work and creativity bring each bag to life.

✨ Shop exclusive summer styles

Recovery Night: Names Not Numbers β€” Rise & Recover

September 12, 2026

This is a night for every name behind a story.

For the moments of fallingβ€”and the courage it takes to rise again.

For the quiet strength of recovery that often goes unseen, but never goes unfelt.

We gather in community for music, a candlelight vigil, refreshments, and shared moments of joy and reflection.

We don’t reduce lives to numbersβ€”we honor names, stories, and the beauty of becoming whole.

Save the date.
Rise & Recover with us. πŸ’œ
