A Christ-centered recovery program designed to provide resources and relationships for those struggling with hurts, habits, and hang-ups. In this safe community, those with addictive, compulsive, and dysfunctional behaviors can find healing and wholeness through the loving power of Jesus Christ.
Three years ago, Trinity Church launched it's Celebrate Recovery program with 40 people. Today, more than 100 people meet weekly for dinner, large group teachings and open share small groups.
No matter what you need freedom from, the steps to recovery are the same. By applying the twelve steps and eight biblical prinicples based on the Beatitudes of Jesus, and with the support of others, you will be empowered to let go of the past and reach for a bright future. There is a place for you here.

How CR Works...
- Each person will be placed in a small support group with people recovering from the same type of challenge(s).
- These Small Groups are led by trained, compassionate adults.
- Every individual is expected to commit to the following small group guidelines:
- Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts, feelings, and actions. Please limit your sharing to 3-5 minutes.
- There is no cross talk please. Cross talk is when two people engage in a dialogue during the meeting. Each person is free to express feelings without interruptions.
- We are here to support one another. We will not attempt to "fix" another.
- Anonymity and Confidentiality are basic requirements. What's shared in the group stays in the group.*
- Offensive language has no place in a Christ-centered recovery group, this includes graphic descriptions.

Co-Ed Groups
This co-ed group will welcome you to Celebrate Recovery and orient you to who we are, how we work, and what we offer. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the program Grief share is a 13 week, video based program for people grieving the death of a loved one. You will gain practical life resources to help you recover from your loss and look forward to rebuilding your life with hope. You don't have to walk alone through one of life's most painful experiences! This co-ed group (some will be gender specific break out sessions) meets for 13 weeks to support one another through the pathway of anger, bitterness, and depression associated with separation or divorce, to a future of healing, forgiveness, and restoration.
This group provides a safe place to deal with the depression, isolation, lack of trust, and unhealthy use of love and relationships as a means of achieving worth that are characteristic of Romance and Relationship Addiction. This group will also include wives of sexually addicted husbands. This group is for women who need a safe place to deal with anger, fear, and anxiety that may have led to destructive or compulsive behavior. We include a discussion on what healthy relationships and interaction with others should look like. When sexual activity tends to dominate your thinking, making it difficult to work or engage in healthy personal relationships, you may be experiencing a sexual addiction. These thoughts and actions have taken priority over everything: your ability to work, live in the real world, relate to others and be close to God. Do you wish people would mind their own business about your drinking or using? Do you find yourself taking prescription or over the counter drugs even when they are not prescribed by a doctor? Has it caused trouble at home? Have you missed days at work or school because of this? If you cannot quit entirely, or if you have little control over the amount you use, and it takes priority over everthing: your ability to make decisions, work, live in the real world or relate to others, this group is for you. This is a healing journey for women who have had an abortion. After abortion, many women struggle with guilt, depression, nightmares, shame, sorrow and suicidal thoughts, even years after the event. We offer a safe and confidential place to find healing, forgiveness, an freedom through Bible study and a support group setting.
