Our Beginning: A Vision of Hope
SpiritLife opened its doors on October 5, 2015, following 22 months of determination, faith, and countless prayers. Founded by Fr. Timothy Kruthaupt and Sr. Donna Marie Palya, SCN, and Louis Wagner Jr., SpiritLife stands as a testament to resilience and a commitment to healing those affected by addiction.
Our Mission Statement
Our mission is simple yet profound:
‘To bring the good news of freedom of spirit and health of mind and body to those held captive by addiction.’ This guiding principle is inspired by Isaiah 61:1-2, shaping every aspect of what we do.
A Nonprofit Organization Rooted in Faith
SpiritLife is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing high-quality addiction treatment. Located on over 200 serene rural acres, our facility is a place of refuge and renewal for those seeking recovery.
Our Services: Comprehensive Care
We offer a 58-bed inpatient facility focusing on withdrawal management and residential treatment. Our programs are designed to meet the needs of adult men and women suffering from substance use disorders.
Faith-Based but Inclusive
As a faith-based, non-denominational organization, we are inspired by the love of Christ. However, SpiritLife welcomes individuals of all beliefs or no beliefs, respecting and honoring every person’s journey.
How it all started

A Legacy of Service
Since our inception in late 2015, SpiritLife has helped nearly 7,000 individuals begin their journey toward recovery, providing hope and healing to clients and their families.
Overcoming Challenges Together
Our journey has not been without obstacles. From zoning battles to anti-discrimination lawsuits, SpiritLife faced significant challenges during its formative years but emerged stronger through faith and community support.
The First Client Walks In
After years of preparation, zoning battles, and licensing hurdles, we will never forget the moment we saw our first client walk through SpiritLife’s doors, a moment that affirmed our purpose and mission.

“I have nothing but awesome memories about my time at Spirit Life. The staff were very approachable and easy to talk to. They were very knowledgeable about recovery.
But as in any program of recovery you have to want it, you have to really pay attention and apply yourself. They will help you on your way to a new way of life.”

They’re there because they really want to help, not just for a paycheck!! I was a client 2 times, the 2nd time it “stuck” & I am currently clean-n- sober 13 months!!!
