Celebrate Recovery

Celebrate Recovery

An amazing opportunity to grasp God’s healing hand!”

God, grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;
Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is;
Not as I would have it;
Trusting that You will make all things right
if I surrender to your will;
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life
And supremely happy with You
forever in the next. AMEN.

Are you struggling with hurts, habits or hang-ups? Do you have obsessive-compulsive behavior? Do you over-shop, over-eat, a smoker, glued to you computer, have been divorced, an eating disorder, lash out in anger at your children or partner? abuse drugs or alcohol? pornography?

Celebrate Recovery is the place for you!

We start the evening with fellowship with friends. Pizza is served around 7:00pm. At 7:30, the group goes into the Chapel and for prayer, singing, testimonies from your peers and the group lesson by one of our leaders. From there, the women and men collect into two groups for confidential sharing.

We have a great time, have superb trained leaders and we are always here to listen and encourage. Look for the signs and come in anytime every Friday at 7:00 to 9:30! You will be glad you did! Child care is provided and all is free.

The Beattitudes

8 Principles Based on the Beatitudes

1. Realize that I am not God; admit that I am powerless to control my
tendency to do the wrong thing and that my life is unmanageable.

2. Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him and that He
has the power to help me recover.

3. Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ’s care
and control.

4. Openly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God and to
someone I trust.

5. Voluntarily submit to every change God wants to make in my life
and humbly ask Him to remove my character defects.

6. Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those who have
hurt me and make amends for harm I have done to others—except
when to do so would harm them or others.

7. Reserve a daily time with God for self-examination, Bible reading
and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain
the power to follow His will.

8. Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others,
both by my example and by my words.
