After much prayer and mission-focused conversation, Prodigals International’s Board of Directors and Senior Staff have made the difficult decision to suspend our conferences – Higher Ground Men’s Conference & Restoring Hearts Women’s Conference – in 2024. While we love bringing these gatherings to PNW Christian men and women, and we celebrate their positive impact, there is currently a critical need to strengthen and buildout capacity for our men’s 12-step recovery groups, and our women’s 12-step betrayal trauma support groups.
Responding to a post-pandemic reality
The pandemic, as you know, created tremendous isolation and anxiety which led many men to – or ‘back to’ – pornography. We, therefore, determined the best use of our resources is to focus on our core recovery ministry, developing more leaders and mentors, and continuing our campaign to modernize our group materials and focus on expanding our digital footprint to reach and bring healing to more men and women in need across the U.S. & Canada. We will also continue to buildout capacity in our Counseling & Coaching ministries as men and women are needing to engage in this critical one-on-one healing process. We’re looking forward to sharing in the coming months more testimonials from men and women who are finding recovery and healing from these investments.
Our Christmas Gift to You
In lieu of meeting together in 2024, this December we will begin sharing (for FREE) on our Prodigals website our most popular breakout session recordings and webinars from past conferences, with plans to add more free resources to the site throughout the year.
In the coming year, our team will continue to pray about how we can best encourage and strengthen our larger Higher Ground & Restoring Hearts communities. As always, please send us your feedback, your ideas and your how we can be specifically praying for you in your journey. Reach out anytime: info@prodigalsinternational.org | 1-866-910-9002.
Thank you friend!

Prodigals International
Since its beginning in 2000, Prodigals’ International and its Homecoming Program has helped and supported hundreds of men achieve freedom from the bonds of sexual addiction throughout the United States and Canada. Through its tested and proven Christ-centered 12-Step sexual addiction recovery support groups, Prodigals has been on the forefront of leading men to healing, restoration, and sexual wholeness.
Partners in Process, the Prodigals program for women experiencing betrayal trauma due to their partner’s sexual brokenness, provides a unique 12-Step recovery process that supports women in their own healing from the effect of their partner’s sexual addiction. Partners in Process parallels the Homecoming program and its support groups provide a practical place for renewal, empathy, and encouragement.
