THE MISSION of the RENEWAL CENTER of the SOUTH

RCS is a year-round residential retreat center dedicated to growth in 12 Step spirituality.

We have created a place where members of any Twelve-Step Fellowship may come for a few days of intensive fellowship, study and spiritual renewal. We provide a place of beauty, hospitality and serenity where Twelve-Step spirituality can be renewed and deepened in an individualized way.

In order to continue spiritual growth, times of intensified study, reflection and sharing are sometimes needed. RCS offers a place of refuge from the ordinary routine of life where one may concentrate on personal growth and renewal, guided by the spiritual principles of the 12 Steps.

Residence at RCS is self-directed. Several hours of structured presentations and discussions on the Twelve-Steps and related spiritual topics are offered daily. Opportunities for individual study and reflection (including Fourth Steps), and for confidential group and one-on-one interaction are available. Recreational opportunities and a library of 12-Step media are provided. We facilitate Fifth Steps as requested.

RCS provides nutritious, delicious meals and comfortable sleeping accommodations for residents.

We have create a beautiful, peaceful campus, a place to be free from the normal responsibilities of daily life and—in the fellowship of like-minded people—to concentrate on the spiritual resources of the Twelve-Step Program and Way of Life.

We are dedicated to spiritual growth through the Twelve Steps and mutual help. RCS does not offer any type of professional therapy. All guests are able and willing to function in a largely self-directed, unsupervised atmosphere.

RCS offers one third and two third scholarships are offered  to those unable to afford the normal residence fee. We desire to be inclusive of all Twelve-Step members who wish to avail themselves of our Center and does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, or handicap.

Anyone who affirms that he or she is a member of a 12 Step Fellowship, and affirms adherence to any abstinence norm of his/her Fellowship, is welcome.

RCS is a special place for the Twelve-Step Community in the Southeast, available year round, —whenever we need to get away for a few days of intensive Twelve-Step fellowship to reach deeply into the spiritual treasures of the Program.

We are always there when you need us.
