Spring 2008 Newsletter
Welcome!
Thank you for visiting our website.We hope you will discover inspiring tools and effective resources to help you and/or others become free of addiction and its devastating affects. Since 1986, "The Most Excellent Way" has been providing the Christian solution to chemical dependency and life-controlling problems: Jesus!
"The Most Excellent Way" is LOVE according to the Bible, 1 Corinthians 12:31, 13:3-8. God Himself demonstrated His love for us by freely giving us the gift of Life, abundant Life, His Son. And we love because He first loved us!

"At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived
and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures.
We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another.
But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared,
He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy.
He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,
whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior,
so that, having been justified by his grace,
we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life."
Titus 3:3-7 NIV
"The Most Excellent Way" is a loving group of men and women affected directly or indirectly by drugs or alcohol. In the Support Meetings, we grow in our faith in Christ with the encouragement of God's Word and prayers of those who understand what we have been through. Thousands worldwide have been set free through these weekly meetings.
We believe a person can be totally free from addiction and compulsive behavior only by the power of the indwelling Spirit of Christ Jesus. God loves you! Your Creator knows everything about you (everything!) and He still loves you. And He has good purposes and forever plans for your life.
I hope you will join us as we encourage others to experience victorious living. Being clean and sober is just the beginning!

We've Launched into Cyberspace (November 2007)
As we launch into cyberspace with newsletters and announcements via eMail, we hope we’ll be able to provide more timely and helpful resources for our Ministry Team and others interested in ministering to those in bondage to addictions. The savings in financial resources will be significant, allowing us to be better stewards of the Lord’s provisions.
Everyone who is in our current Outlook Express Address Book will receive or has received our first email newsletter, and may choose to (1) sign up to continue receiving communication from us, or (2) request to be removed from our email list. We will notify those whose emails return to us as undeliverable with the option to sign up or opt out.
We are notifying everyone who is in our snail-mail database for whom we do not have an email address of our change to cyberspace. If you know of someone who does not have internet access and you believe would like to continue receiving newsletters via snail mail, let them know they must notify us by mail or telephone. Upon request, we will snail-mail newsletters.
We have secured additional domain names and will create three more websites when this email campaign is in place and operating satisfactorily. We’ll be posting articles, testimonies, photos, Bible studies, resource links and more in .pdf format on the websites for easy access and printing.
We’ve entered unfamiliar territory, but know the Lord will bless the effort if we are indeed within His will. We hope “The Most Excellent Way” internet presence will increase, providing many more opportunities to reach those interested in Christian alternatives to rehab and recovery.
Your input is very important. Launching into cyberspace provides us with the means to connect TMEW ministries with one another. We’ll be able to easily assist Meeting Leaders to reach others in their communities with email announcements of special events. You can help us broaden our exposure and encouragement by:
(1) forwarding emails from TMEW to your friends and those you believe may be interested in attending your meetings or starting “The Most Excellent Way” in their church;
(2) sending us email announcements, praise reports, testimonies, prayer requests;
(3) forwarding photos of your Ministry Team and special events;
(4) recommending internet sites you believe will benefit others;
(5) updating your testimony online.
Let us meet together in cyberspace
to encourage and minister to one another!
