In observance of Memorial Day, our office will be closed Monday, May 25.

As we enjoy time with family and friends this weekend, we pause to recognize the true meaning of the holiday: honoring those who gave their lives in service to our country. We also remember, honor and thank the spouses, children, families, and loved ones who carried on at home during times of service and loss. We thank them for their strength, sacrifice, and unwavering support.

Mental health touches every one of us either directly or through someone we love. Let’s commit to talking about it with the care and honesty it deserves. samhsa.gov/mental-health/what-is-mental-health/facts

There is no perfect moment to quit or start over. No ideal Monday. No magical "rock bottom". No version of you that suddenly feels 100% ready.

A new beginning is not a date on a calendar- it is a decision you make, right now.

You do not need a clean slate or perfect conditions. You can begin in the middle of the mess, in the middle of a random Tuesday, in the middle of not feeling ready. You can start while things are still chaotic, without confidence, even after a slip.

Your past does not disqualify you. Your timing does not have to be perfect.

Anytime is a good time for a new beginning.

Children’s mental health is key to their growth and well-being. It involves learning, building relationships, and handling challenges. Sometimes it’s difficult to tell if behaviors are typical or need professional attention.

If a child is struggling, the whole family may feel the impact. Remember, support and hope are always available. Check out SAMHSA’s website for resources, or contact the Keys to Success office for help and encouragement.

Tulips: blooming.
Town: bustling.
Traffic: questionable at best.

We are hitting pause at the office during Tulip Time.

But don't worry, you do not have to wait until the crowds clear. Telehealth is always open and available. Reach out to Deb on her cell at (641)780-1087.

We will be here for you, just without the traffic jam.

1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experience a mental health condition each year- and conditions like depression remain a leading cause of disability worldwide.

Even though many mental health challenges are treatable, stigma still keeps many people from reaching out. And for those in rural and underserved communities, getting care is not always easy or accessible.

But there is hope: connection matters. A simple check-in, a conversation, or showing up for someone can make a real difference.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, let's turn awareness into action:
• Check in with one person this week
• Start one honest conversation about mental health
• Share a resource or story to help reduce stigma

Small actions add up. Together, we can create spaces where people feel seen, supported, and able to get the help they deserve.

It truly takes a community - people showing up for one another, championing growth, celebrating progress, and getting excited about the good happening around them.

That is why Celebrate Recovery is so impactful. It is more than a program, it is a place where healing is shared and hope is built together. And now, they are expanding that support to children!

Kids who have walked through an adult's struggle with substance use often carry their own questions, emotions, and stories. They deserve a safe space to process, to be understood, and to know they are not alone. The same is true for children who have witnessed the journey of recovery, they need space to make sense of that transformation too.

Be sure to check out what Celebrate Recovery is doing and help spread the word! Communities grow stronger when we care for every member- especially the youngest ones!

There's exciting news at Celebrate Recovery of Pella!!
Celebration Place is launching on May 14!!

Kids are like sponges, absorbing so much every single day. This includes the good, the bad, and the ugly. If you have a hurt, habit of hang-up, chances are your beautiful kiddos do too. When one person in the family is in recovery, the entire family is in recovery.

Celebration place is designed to help your kids from Kindergarden through 6th grade develop life skills that are vital in their times of struggle and in daily life. Children will be equiped with healthy coping skills, stategies and values to prevent the development of unhealthy coping skills that that lead to poor life choices. We like to think of Celebration Place as Pre-recovery.

Here, at Celebration place, we pray that your kids find friendships, learn to lean on Jesus, and expeirience hope and joy.

Celebrate Recovery meets at The Well in Pella every thursday evening starting with a meal at 5:30.
