Since 1981, Wagner Hills has been a place of healing, growth and transformation for individuals in recovery. For the last decade, we have steadfastly provided women’s recovery programming in Langley with care, love, and faithfulness. In 2023, amidst reflection and discernment, Wagner Hills staff and board sensed God’s call to refocus on our original mission: providing a solid and transformative recovery program for men. Recognizing this shift, we prayed for an organization that shared our values and could seamlessly continue the vital work of women’s recovery in the same location. Union Gospel Mission (UGM) emerged as the natural choice.

Grateful for our trust and mindful of the gravity of this immense decision, UGM approached the opportunity with humility and careful consideration. Through a process of deliberation, prayer, and discernment, both of our organizations recognized a clear path forward, sensing God's assurance in our decision.

Embracing this season of transition, UGM is poised to open the doors of the new Cedar Haven Women’s Recovery Centre by July 1, 2024, ensuring continuity of care and support for women in need within the community. Please pray for UGM as they prepare to welcome women into their program.
