Visiting our website leads me to believe that either you or someone you know and love is struggling with alcoholism and/or drug addiction. The ramifications of abusing these chemicals are severe and they bring "wreckage" to individuals, marriages, and families. The pain and devastation that is caused by abusing them seems to be insurmountable.
I want you to know that there is hope; there is a way out. You have found a special place that empathizes with your dilemma and we also firmly believe you can overcome this affliction. I, myself, have been rescued, redeemed, and restored from a 10-year, self-inflicted, bondage to cocaine. I entered this program in 1998 a broken man, full of shame, and without hope.

Services
Established in 1962 by Brother Mickey Evans and his wife Laura Maye, who had a dream from God to start a "camp" for alcoholics to come and find freedom from their addiction. To witness men being set free from the bondage of addiction to walk in a new, abundant life with Jesus Christ, recognizing Him as the source of hope, and life.
The single most important factor for admittance into Dunklin's program is a man's attitude. Each incoming resident is interviewed to see if he has a sincere desire to find spiritual help. We have found that we cannot help a man until he is ready to let God hlep him. This packet contains VERY important information regarding our program and is designed to help you make an informed decision about Dunklin and if it may be the right place for you.
Induction class has a sole purpose of introducing the new student to our community, helping each man feel at "home", and loving on them while they go through the initial challenges of this new lifestyle change. The men learn to acclimate to the daily discipline that will be required of them throughout the program.
One thing that makes Dunklin unique in the recovery world, is our relentless commitment to not only helping the man in chemical addiction but also the loved ones he has effected. Over the years we have seen God faithfully. Co-dependency, Forgiveness, the Bottle Family (The Portrait of the Dysfunctional Family) and Reconciliation.
As always, our nursery volunteers will bless your children with the love of Christ as they care for them. Our Sunday School Teachers are dedicated to your children and are here each week introducing them to Bible characters and stories. Our purpose is to experience God in a real way so we may grow into who we are in Christ and impact the world around us.

Dunklin memorial Church was the greatest thing that ever happened to me and especially my family. I not only have been clean for 2 years now, but I am well. I am a father today and a loving husband thanks to this ministry. I can promise you that no other rehab in the world has a family recovery program like this one. I thank God first and foremost, But he used the staff and family’s at Dunklin to restore a marriage and family that I thought had no hope whatsoever. If you make the decision to go here you are not enrolling in a rehab, you are joining a family that you will be a part of for the

My husband graduated from Dunklin just recently and he is unrecognizable to me from the man he was 10 months ago. God has redeemed our marriage through the ministry at Dunklin. We were able to take family recovery and advanced marriage classes every weekend, and I was able to take part in Inner Healing sessions for myself there. I'm so thankful for every person there who listened to us, loved on us, and led us to what God had for our family. We are so blessed to have been a part of the incredible work God is doing at Dunklin.

What an eye opening, amazing, journey for our whole family! It wasn't easy, but it was SO worth it! I went from wanting a divorce to cherishing my marriage and my husband! Thankful to all those who poured into our lives! "The program doesn't change people, God does." He is faithful and He uses Dunklin and the people there to minister His love to a hurting population. Thank you! Our lives a forever changed!

Dunklin Memorial Camp was the tool Jesus used to change my family's life. My husband, Kevin, went through the program in 2009 and our life has been forever changed. Dunklin Memorial staff showed us how to have a relationship with Jesus and encouraged us everyday. We will be forever grateful for the obedience of Brother Mickey and Miss LauraMaye to follow the call God had on their life 52 years ago. We have an incredible life today because the staff at Dunklin selflessly poured into our lives and showed us the way to Jesus.

I am so grateful for Dunklin Memorial Camp. I was a man who was asked to leave my first time around, and rightfully so, I was so very prideful and full of myself that I couldn't see the hand that was extended to me to help save my life. I was blessed to have a second chance to attend Dunklin 8 years after I was dismissed.
I have to say that this was the hardest thing I have ever done. When I entered the second time, I was sure I had lost my family, my friends and my business. Everyone in my life had turned their back on me, but by grace, God had not and Dunklin had not. Over the course of the

Dunklin Memorial Church changed our lives. Because of Jesus Christ and through the wonderful staff there, my husband found freedom from his addiction 3+yrs ago. This program is not for the faint of heart, but for those who really are seeking life change through Christ Jesus and willing to go through the fire to get to the other side VICTORY!!!!
