Celebrate Recovery

Celebrate Recovery is based on the 12 steps of recovery and the eight beatitudes found in the Bible. Celebrate Recovery is for anyone that has a hurt, habit or hang-up.... and that includes all of us!  Celebrate Recovery is not just for "those people" we are all those people!

Celebrate Recovery meets every Tuesday at 6:00 pm for dinner, if your schedule permits...join us!  Our large group meeting begins in the Connection Center gym at 7:00 pm with our own CR Band and Praise team leading us in uplifting praise and worship, followed by a live testimony or 12 Step lesson... on alternating weeks.

Our gender specific Small Groups begin at 8:00 pm.

Your first time at CR you will remain in the gym for a Welcome / Orientation Group and we will tell you the history of CR and you will hear the testimonies from a few of the leaders and also an explanation of the Small Groups offered.

Crosstalk Cafe opens at 9:00 pm for ice cream and dessert and a time to talk and connect with other CR participants.  Your CR family is waiting to meet you...you never have to be alone again.

Eight Recovery Principles
based on the BEATITUDES
by Pastor Rick Warren

R =

Principle 1 - Realize I'm not God; I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable. "Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor".

E =

Principle 2 - Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to him, and that he has the power to help me recover. "Happy are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted"

C =

Principle 3 - Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ's care and control. "Happy are the meek"

O =

Principle 4 - Openly examine and confess my faults to God, to myself, and to someone I trust. > "Happy are the pure in heart"

V =

Principle 5 - Voluntarily submit to every change God wants to make in my life and humbly ask Him to remove my character defects. "Happy are those whose greatest desire is to do what God requires"

E =

Principle 6 - Evaluate all my relationships; Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make amends for harm I've done to others except when to do so would harm them or others. "Happy are the merciful" "Happy are the peacemakers"

R =

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

Y =

Principle 8 - Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and by my words. "Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires"
