What is Celebrate Recovery?
Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered recovery community helping
others celebrate freedom from all types of painful hurts, habits, and hang-
ups. Celebrate Recovery utilizes the Biblical truth that we need each other
in order to grow spiritually and emotionally. Established in 1991, currently in
35,000 churches, in 50 States and 25 countries, over 1,000,000
successfully completed the program to lead normal lives.
Who should Attend?
We all Struggle! Anyone who desires a new way of managing life should
consider attending Celebrate Recovery. Participants may include people
who struggle with anger, co-dependency, overworking, various addictions,
compulsive over/under eating, compulsive spending, and any other issue
that keeps us from becoming the people we are called to be.
How are Meetings Structured?
The evening begins with coffee, fellowship, then flows to a Large Group
with worship, prayer, a reading of the Steps or Recovery Principles and a
biblically-based teaching or a testimony. Men and women meet
separately after the Large Group fellowship for Step studies, an in-depth
concentrated study of steps and recovery principles that are periodically
offered.
What is Expected of me?
Come as you are! No registration is needed. Celebrate Recovery is an
anonymous recovery meeting. No matter your hurts, habits or hang-ups
you are welcome. You are free to share or not to share inside the
Support Groups. All meetings are open to anyone who desires change,
but anonymity and confidentiality are basic requirements. Celebrate
Recovery does name and celebrate Christ as The High Power, but
anyone seeking a new way to manage life is welcome. Come with an
open heart, an open mind, and ears ready to listen. Newcomers are
always welcome!
