Chad Ray is one of our graduates, and we are honored to share his recovery story with you.

“I have 11 months of sobriety, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share a little bit of my story.

Before coming to Samaritan Colony, I was drinking every day. My marriage was failing, my relationships were terrible, and everyday life was becoming too much for me to handle. I knew I wanted a better life, but I didn’t know how to get there.

When I came into Samaritan Colony, I was afraid and desperate for help. I knew something had to change, and I was finally willing to look for a different way to live.

One of the biggest changes in my recovery has been mending relationships and learning to be an honest person. I’m learning that trust takes time to rebuild, and I can’t change the past, but I can change how I live today.

Another important part of my recovery has been getting closer to God. My faith and trust in Him have been restored, and I’ve seen doors open that I couldn’t open through my own willpower. I’ve learned that I don’t have to do everything on my own, and I can trust God to guide me through life.

Today, my relationships are better, my faith is stronger, and I’m grateful for the chance to keep growing. I know I still have more to learn, but I’m not where I started.

If I could offer one piece of advice to someone who is struggling, it would be to trust God, work the Steps with a good sponsor, and be honest with yourself and others. You don’t have to have everything figured out. Just be willing to take the next step.

I came into Samaritan Colony afraid and desperate for help. Today, I’m grateful to be sober, grateful for my faith, and grateful for the opportunity to build a better life.

Trust God, work the Steps, and don’t give up on the possibility of a better life.

Thank you for letting me share my story.”

Since the SECU Women’s Recovery Center opened eight months ago, we have heard stories and have been touched by so many women.

These are wives, daughters, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, and aunts.

We honor everyone who shares their story of addiction and hope for recovery.

One of our clients painted this inspirational message on a stone. Her words now have a permanent place outside the women’s center entrance.

By funding a treatment scholarship, you can give someone a chance at freedom.

One of the more rewarding aspects of our work here at The Colony is awarding Treatment Scholarships.

Over the past few weeks, we have been busy awarding several to both men and women. Once our staff selects a client for a scholarship, they learn about the funder and begin writing a letter of gratitude. Below is an excerpt from one letter that we wanted to share with you.

"Samaritan Women's Recovery Center has put me on the right track and has provided me the tools I need to help me continue with my sobriety. I can't thank you enough for this scholarship. It was very unexpected. God does work in mysterious ways." - (Scholarship recipient)

Treatment scholarships are a wonderful way to give the gift of recovery. If you would like to create a scholarship or contribute to an existing one, please contact our development director, Maggie Sergio, at [email protected]

Some people build a legacy that deserves to be remembered season after season.

Since 1975, Samaritan Colony has crossed paths with so many people who've shaped who we are — and chances are, you have too. A parent, a mentor, a friend who showed up when it mattered most.

Now you have the chance to create a living monument in their honor.

Introducing the Garden of the Good Samaritans — inspired by the compassion of the Good Samaritan parable and created to honor the people who've touched our lives.

For a gift of $2,000, you can plant a crepe myrtle tree in someone's honor, paired with a granite stone engraved with a personal tribute. Its blooms return every summer — a living reminder of the life it celebrates, year after year.

Give a gift that grows in significance.

🏌️ What a day at the 17th Annual Chris Pearson Memorial Golf Tournament! 🏌️

We are so grateful to everyone who came out to make this year's tournament a success. A huge THANK YOU to all our players, generous sponsors, and supporters who continue to show up year after year for such a great cause.

Special thanks to Scotch Meadows Golf Course in Laurinburg for hosting us once again!

Thanks to this incredible community, we raised close to $19,000 for Samaritan Colony this year! 💚

We couldn't do this without each and every one of you. See you next year! ⛳

This little guy parked himself at the entrance of our women’s center for quite some time yesterday. He never budged as our Development Director stooped down low for a closer look and some photos.

While researching the symbolism associated with lizards, we found the following interpretation, which reflects our work here at Samaritan Colony.

“Lizards symbolize recovery and renewal, particularly due to their ability to regenerate lost tails. This regenerative trait is often interpreted as a powerful metaphor for resilience and healing, suggesting that one can overcome challenges and emerge stronger. In various spiritual contexts, lizards are seen as reminders to embrace change and trust in one's capacity to navigate life's difficulties. Their adaptability in harsh environments further emphasizes their role as symbols of survival and transformation.”

Mark your calendar for September 19, 2026 — the Super Chevy Show is coming back to Rockingham Dragway, and we need a big turnout.

It's a full day of drag racing, a car show with more than 30 professionally judged classes, and a swap meet, all happening rain or shine on Saturday, with test and tune Friday night for anyone who wants to get an early start.

Here's the part that matters beyond the racetrack: $1 from every ticket sold will go straight to the Dragway Treatment Scholarship at Samaritan Colony. Our goal for the day is $3,500, and the only way we hit that number is if the seats are full. Samaritan Colony has said how much they appreciate the generous support the Rockingham Dragway community has shown, and this is our chance to back that up.

So bring the whole family and come watch some lightning-fast Chevys fly down the track. Every ticket helps someone get the treatment they need.

Tickets and full event info at www.rockinghamdragway.com. RV spots are booking up, so grab yours early at www.therockrv.com.
