Company of Grace 2026:
Kindle the Fire
In-person reception in Chicago + nationwide livestream celebrating spiritual companionship and long-lasting recovery
A Spark Can Change Everything
At every ISP retreat and reflection circle, something quiet but powerful happens. A small spark of hope is lit.
It is the spark of finally being seen and heard. The spark of discovering a loving God who has not abandoned you. The spark of believing that long-term recovery and a new life are actually possible.
Join us for Company of Grace 2026 as we gather to kindle more fires.
This year, we invite our entire community—alumni, volunteers, partners, and friends—to turn those individual sparks of spiritual breakthrough into a steady fire of hope that transforms lives, families, and cities.
