Our Mission
To help people overcome their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. A Christ centered ministry to encourage fellowship and to celebrate God’s healing power in our lives as they travel down the road to recovery. Through sharing our hopes and experiences with one another, we become willing to accept God’s grace and forgiveness in solving our life’s problems. Based on the Beatitudes in Matthew 5:3-10, Celebrate Recovery takes you through the eight principles of recovery, the 12 steps and their Biblical comparisons.

8 Recovery Principles
based on the Beatitudes
R ealize I’m not God. I admit that I am power- less to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable. (Matt. 5:3)
E arnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover. (Matt. 5:4)
C onsciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ’s care and control (Matt 5:5)
O penly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God, and to someone I trust. (Matt. 5:8)
V oluntarily submit to every change God wants to make in my life and humbly ask Him to re- move my character defects. (Matt. 5:6)
E valuate 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. (Matt. 5:7-9)
R eserve a daily time with God for self- examination, Bible reading, and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain the power to follow His will.
Y ield myself to be used by God to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and by my words. (Matt. 5:10)
