House of Ethel Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

House of Ethel is a men's sober living home in Sedalia, Missouri, one of The Embassy, Inc.'s residences for men working through its faith-based restoration program.

A Men's Residence Named for the Ministry's Tradition

House of Ethel carries a name in keeping with The Embassy's pattern of naming its houses after biblical figures. It functions as one household within the ministry's broader restoration program, which combines housing with faith-based teaching and structured accountability.

Restoration as the Ministry's Model

The Embassy describes its work as restoration, a term that reaches beyond sobriety into rebuilding a resident's life more broadly. House of Ethel residents take part in that fuller program, the distinction between a restoration ministry and a straight sober house.

Pettis County and Sedalia's Role in the Ministry

Sedalia is both the largest city and the county seat of Pettis County, and The Embassy has built its ministry around that base, drawing on local churches and community support for the men living at House of Ethel and its sibling residences.

One of Three Embassy Houses for Men

House of Ethel operates alongside House of Daniel and House of Ephraim as one of three men's residences The Embassy runs in Sedalia. The shared program means a resident who needs to move between houses stays inside the same ministry and the same expectations.
