What is sauntering? To saunter is to go on a slow, unhurried, casual stroll with God and others who Love Jesus. The Sauntering House provides a loving and safe environment for men who desire to overcome addiction.

family support
Nothing enables us to block out the world's noise better than getting away for a few days. Several times during the year, we take our men on retreats for concentrated times with Christ and each other. And we provide some retreats for everyone as well.

family support
Addiction is a family problem. Therefore, families are encouraged to participate in our Bible Study, potlucks, retreats, and other activities. We also make visits to the families of our men. Soon, we hope to begin a family support group.

How can we not take advantage of the natural beauty of north Idaho? The mountains, the streams, and the lakes are too numerous to mention. As the weather allows, we involve our guys and anyone who would like to go hiking, snowshoeing, backpacking, fishing, and camping.
Levels of Participation
how can i participate in the h2h community?
1. As a Resident of The Sauntering House
The Sauntering House is a residential aftercare house for men breaking free from the bonds of drug and alcohol addiction. Residents participate in every community aspect - Mentoring, weekly one-on-ones, relapse prevention, and Bible study. And for the first 30 days, residents also participate in other weekly activities like small groups and local church meetings.
2. As an Out-of-Resident Participant
Men do not have to be residents to be involved in our aftercare community. Full participation in our mentoring, one-on-ones, relapse prevention classes, and Bible study is required for each man in recovery. Also, weekly activities, like small groups and local church meetings, will be required for the first 30 days in the community.
3. Family Members
Drugs and alcohol do not only profoundly impact individuals. Addiction is a family problem. We support our men's wives, children, parents, and siblings.
4. Anyone!
Our Community Bible Study, Pot Lucks, and Retreats are open to anyone. These outreach events allow us to get our message out to more people.
