Connecting People to the God Who loves them!

Celebrate Recovery

 
 

Celebrate Recovery is:

Eight-step biblical program based on Jesus’ teachings of the beatitudes

“Forward looking”

Focused on the participant taking personal responsibility

Centered on a spiritual commitment to Jesus Christ

Confidential; safe environment

Not interested in your age, sex or religious background (non-denominational)

 

What is the schedule?

Celebrate Recovery meets every Tuesday evening in the Christian Activities Center of First Baptist Church. A meal is served at 5:30pm and is followed by a large group time from 6:15-7:15pm. Then we break up into separate men's and women's groups from 7:15-8:15pm. After these small group times, there is coffee and dessert available in the cafe for anyone who wants to stay. We would love for you to come spend an evening with us and stay for an hour or stay for the whole time.


D
oesn’t “Recovery” mean I need to be recovering from alcohol or drugs?

No. This ministry is for all types of problems and addictions, which are unhealed, unmet or unresolved. These may include (but are not limited to):

Overeating, Overspending, Overworking, Sexual Addiction, Depression, Divorce, Codependency, Drug/Alcohol Addiction, Grief, Anger, and other issues that are too numerous to mention.   


Who leads this ministry?

Christians, who understand the challenges you’re facing, have taken the time to be trained in this effective program, and care enough to want to help.


H
ow can Celebrate Recovery help me?

By linking its four main components; fellowship, bible study, worship/teaching, and support, you will discover a defense against life’s challenges and experience a fresh start from any difficulty which may be preventing you from experiencing the life God intended for you. It is only through the saving grace of God that healing will begin and a new direction for your life will emerge. Ultimately becoming free from our addictive,compulsive, and dysfunctional behaviors bringing peace, serenity, joy, and most importantly a stronger personal relationship with God and others.

 
What will be expected of me?

As a member of Celebrate Recovery you are invited to attend as often as you would like and whichever portions of the program you choose (however there is proof that the more involved individuals are, the more benefit received), support your fellow members, become more accountable, and maintain strict confidentially.
