Fully Restored – Ministry Spotlight

Mission Finder Podcast #47

Hosts: Andrew Michael Arroyo & Don Nava

Addiction touches countless lives, but Fully Restored Ministries offers a powerful source of hope. In our latest podcast episode, founders Chad Lacombe and Victor Almarez share their personal journeys and the heart behind their unique, faith-based recovery program.

Healing Through Discipleship and Life Skills

Unlike traditional programs, Fully Restored combines spiritual healing with practical tools for daily life. Chad, a former addict himself, explains that true recovery begins by addressing spiritual brokenness. Their program centers around discipleship—mentors walking alongside individuals through every step of their healing process.

Equipping for Long-Term Restoration

The ministry provides more than sobriety support. Participants receive job training, financial education, and guidance for reintegration into society—equipping them not just to recover, but to thrive.

Breaking the Silence Around Addiction

Victor emphasizes that addiction affects entire families and communities. He urges open conversations and encourages those struggling to seek help. Recovery, he says, is about more than quitting—it’s about restoring lives and relationships.

Introducing the “Falling to Freedom” Podcast

Listeners will also get a preview of their upcoming podcast Falling to Freedom, which will spotlight personal stories of recovery and foster honest conversations around addiction.

How You Can Support the Mission

As Fully Restored prepares to launch its first residential program for men, they invite the community to support through prayer, donations, and sharing their mission. With faith and support, restoration is possible.
