Celebrate Recovery

Come learn more about the "Celebrate Recovery" program,
offered each Wend. night from 7-8:30pm (Light Dinner available 6:30-7pm).

About Celebrate Recovery
Celebrate Recovery is a confidential Christ-Centered 12-Step Recovery Program for anyone with a hurt, habit or hang-up that has been an obstacle to the abundant life promised to us in Christ. CR meetings begin as a large, informal group, then break into issue-specific small groups, such as eating disorders, alcohol and drug dependency, and sexual addictions.

Who is Celebrate Recovery for?
This program is for anyone and everyone with any hurt, habit or hang-up that has been an obstacle to finding and walking in the abundant life that has been promised to us in Christ.

What happens at a CR meeting?
We begin our meetings as a large, informal group, including a time of worship, followed by a teaching or someone sharing their personal story. The group then breaks into issue-specific small groups. Small Groups include issues such as eating disorders, alcohol and drug dependency, and sexual addictions. We are constantly building more groups as the need arises, so join us, even if you think there's not a small group targeted toward your hurt, habit, or hang-up. Celebrate Recovery has been established with the highest pursuit of confidentiality and integrity in mind. What is shared at CR stays at CR.
