12 Steps |

The purpose of Celebrate Recovery is
to encourage fellowship and to celebrate God's healing power in
our lives as we work our way along the road to recovery.
By working through the principles, we grow spiritually
and we are freed from our hurts, hang-ups and habits. Thus freedom
creates peace, serenity, joy and most important, a strong relationship
with others and our personal, loving and forgiving Higher Power,
Jesus.
This is achieved through Praise, Worship, informative
lessons, personal testimonies, fellowship and small groups.
Celebrate Recovery is based on God's word, the Bible.
Celebrate Recovery is forward looking.
Celebrate Recovery emphasizes personal responsibility.
Celebrate Recovery encourages spiritual commitment to Jesus Christ.
Celebrate Recovery utilizes the biblical truth that we need each
other in order to grow spiritually and emotionally.
Celebrate Recovery addresses all types of habits, hurts and hang-ups.
Celebrate Recovery encourages members to also attend secular (traditional)
recovery meetings as an additional outreach opportunity.
Finally, Celebrate Recovery produces Lay Ministers.
