New Beginnings Ministry Application for Admittance 1258 Greater Hope Road, Martin, GA 30557 Print this form and fax it to 775-368-8260 or mail it to address shown. For additional questions call 706-356-2113 Your Commitment The first 60 days of your stay at New Beginnings is filled with many challenges. This most often includes homesickness, struggles with trust, environmental changes, and a roller coaster of emotions. The first inclination of the resident is the desire to leave prematurely before the adjustment period is complete. We have found that after the first 60 days, most of this insecurity passes. Unfortunately, ladies walk away from their opportunity with New Beginnings because they do not give themselves enough time to make the necessary adjustments. With this in mind, we are requiring a strong commitment on your part to enter this ministry with a determination in your heart to see it through to the end. Your signature to this commitment form is your agreement not to compromise your decision to change, and, therefore, agree to give no time or expression to ideas such as: I m too homesick, This is too hard, I m not ready for this or I don t want God shoved down my throat. We understand that feelings of homesickness and missing your family is valid; however, you must determine that you will not allow these feelings to drive you from your commitment to what God has for you through New Beginnings. Your signature represents your commitment and desire to do what it takes to achieve freedom and healing. We are committed to you as long as you are committed to Jesus and His change in your life. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS COMMITMENT, PLEASE DO NOT PROCEED WITH THE APPLICATION PROCESS. If you do agree, please sign and proceed with the Application.
