Home of Grace; recognize and commend upon 60 years of service to those in addiction recovery.
This resolution formally recognizes Home of Grace in Vancleave, Mississippi, for 60 years of providing Christian-based recovery support to individuals struggling with addiction. It does not create new laws, allocate funds, or impose requirements - it serves solely as a symbolic honor for the organization’s community service. The resolution highlights Home of Grace’s founding in 1965 by Reverend Bill Barton and its ongoing mission to offer refuge and renewal. It was unanimously adopted by the Mississippi House of Representatives in February 2025.
