Though it's sometimes difficult for us to admit, we have all lived less than perfect lives. Our good intentions have failed us again and again as we have hurt people, hurt ourselves and are left feeling that we are failures as Christians or even as human beings. As our compulsive or addictive behaviors progress we find ourselves trapped in habits which lead us on a treacherous path away from the peace and joy God desires for us. This may leave us feeling insecure, angry, frightened and without hope.
No matter what your hurts, habits, or hang ups may be there is hope! Celebrate Recovery offers a safe, welcoming, grace filled, Christ-centered fellowship. At Celebrate Recovery you will find many who are dealing with struggles similar to your own. You will also find a group of men and women who share your desire to be made whole.
The foundation of our recovery is our one and only higher power Jesus Christ. When we keep coming back and turn our will and our life over to Christ's care, in time our destructive behaviors loose their grip and we begin to embrace a new life, enjoying peace and serenity, trusting that God is guiding our life and our recovery.
This group is to provide a forum to learn about Celebrate Recovery. It is not intended to substitute for regular local meetings. If you are looking for a local group, please do a web search or visit the CR website
