About Us

STANDING BY THE DOOR was formed by former leaders and members of Church Army Branson, on of the most effective and successful recovery programs in the United States from 2003 through 2012. In a cooperative effort with Church Army USA, Standing By The Door was developed in 2013 to carry on a tradition of faith based life instruction and compassionate fellowship with those needing guidance and direction to escape the horrors of the addictive lifestyle. Since that time, the ministry has evolved to include transitional housing for men and woman as well as supportive and instructional services to all willing alcoholics and addicts.

This outreach as been blessed with steady growth during the past four years and has expanded both the diversity and scope of outreach to fulfill our mission statement, "Sharing faith that makes a difference". Our second men's house opened in November of 2015 and our first women's house opened in 2017 and we are planning to add two more houses.

The leaders of Standing By The Door is comprised solely of former members of Church Army Branson and is 100% comprised of volunteers. Our leadership team works closely with members of our local Advisory Board and is accountable to our National Board of Directors.
