A.  The 12-step program is most effective when the person in recovery can commit to the small groups.  Your attendance there is important to your recovery and those of the group.  The open share group does not work the 12 steps together; therefore attendance is not as necessary to progress with the group.  By attending the Newcomers 101 class you could get more information before making a decision on your commitment level.

A.  Yes, you are welcome to come with your loved one.  If you can not relate to or you are of the opposite sex of the group in which they are attending, you can go to a small group in which you identify with or go to the Newcomers 101 class.

A:  Addiction has an impact on the entire family. Celebrate Recovery is a ministry for the whole family (with a group for teens coming in the fall) and offers small groups for men and women that address a variety of issues that will provide support and a safe place to deal with the hurt and pain in our life. Childcare is provided for ages 0 – 12 years.

A: If you struggle with any of the following, Celebrate Recovery can help you find  hope and healing:  chronic use of chemical substances, alcohol, food,  sex, or relationships; depression; anger; co-dependency; shame; or anything  else that gets in the way of you being all that God has called you to  be.

A: Our group leaders are compassionate volunteers who have struggled with their own hurts, hang-ups, habits or addictions, AND have found hope and healing through Celebrate Recovery.

A: Although Celebrate Recovery is considered to be 12-step program, we outwardly proclaim that Jesus Christ is our “higher power,” and we firmly believe and depend upon the miracle-working power of the Lord Jesus Christ in the process of recovery.

A:  We believe the answer is a resounding YES! Through prayer, the penetrating work of the Holy Spirit, a commitment to change, a system of accountability,  and the surrender of our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ, we can be free of any  addiction, addictive behavior, hurt, hang-up or habit.

A: We believe the biblical principles used in Celebrate Recovery are helpful for all types of addictive behaviors and anything in our lives that keeps us from being all that God has called us to be.

A: Absolutely.  Addiction has an impact on the entire family. Celebrate Recovery is a ministry for the whole family (with a group for  teens coming in the fall)  and offers small groups that address a variety  of issues for men and women that will provide support and a safe place to deal  with the hurt and pain in your life.

A: We will do nothing to intentionally embarrass you or shame you. We trust the safe and caring atmosphere of the group will encourage you to share your  hurts.  We believe that we are changed as we share our experience, strength and hope with others.

A: Yes.  We also encourage individuals to establish a team of accountability people – people who can walk with you in the process, holding you accountable for different aspects of your recovery.

A:  Although each of our group leaders has a caring heart, they are not equipped to offer in-depth counseling or clinical therapy. In the event this type of treatment is necessary, we would be happy to refer you to a qualified Christian professional.

A: You are welcome at Celebrate Recovery no matter what church affiliation you may have. If you do not have a home church, we welcome you to join us during any of our worship services.
