Welcome to Promise Land Ministries

Men Seeking freedom from addiction
Promise Land Ministries is a 501 c3 Nonprofit Church and Ministry located in the north Georgia mountains near Ellijay. Our primary mission is a nine month residential treatment program for men seeking freedom from drug and alcohol addiction. The ministry was founded by Al and Sandra Plume in the late nineties and moved to it’s current location in Ellijay, Georgia in 2001.
Promise Land Ministries has never charged the residents or their families a dime regardless of their ability to pay. The ministry receives no federal or state support; we operate completely by the grace of God and donations from the Ellijay community, churches and friends like you.

Ephesians 2:8-10

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Who We Serve

A Faith based approach to substance abuse treatment

The Men

The men we serve have all come to the conclusion that they no longer want to live in the bondage of addiction. They must come to the realization that they cannot be the men God designed them to be outside of an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. Here at the ministry, they step off of the wide path that leads to destruction and, through our program of scripture, structure and service, step onto the narrow way to success.

The Families

Many of our residents have caused serious damage not only to themselves, but also to their families. When these men step away from their self destructive behavior and into a relationship with Jesus Christ, they not only begin to heal themselves but also rebuild damaged relationships with their families. We encourage families to visit every Sunday.

The Community

At the heart of Promise Land Ministries is a Biblical commitment to serve others. For the first six months of residency our men work to support each other and the ministry by serving the Ellijay community. Through our three charity partners in Gilmer County, our men work to help break the self centered nature of addiction by serving others rather than themselves.
