Celebrate Recovery

Celebrate Recovery®  is a Christ centered recovery program for everyone who struggles with a hurt, habit or hang-up that negatively affects their life.  This biblical twelve step program is based on eight recovery principles borrowed from the Beatitudes.  Participants are led through a process of restoring their relationship with God, with themselves and with others.

We know that term ‘recovery’ applies to Christians because scripture states clearly that 'all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.’ (Romans 3:23)  Celebrate Recovery® is designed to foster all kinds of healing whether the issue is alcoholism, substance abuse, co-dependency, sexual addiction, gambling or food issues, anger, divorce recovery or domestic violence.

The  Celebrate Recovery® program at Rhema Christian Center is open to anyone within the church body or community who is looking for a pathway to recovery or wants to support a loved one in need of healing.  Meetings begin  at 7:00 with 'praise and worship' to shake off the cares of the day and turn the focus to the One who is the true Healer, Jesus Christ.  A short lesson follows before participants separate into gender specific groups for discussion, support and fellowship.  There is no cost to participate in Celebrate Recovery®.  Start your recovery now and gain freedom from life’s hurts, hang-ups and habits.

 

SERENTITY PRAYER

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.  Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time.  Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace.  Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is; not as I would have it.  Trusting that You will make all things right if I surrender to Your will.  So that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with You forever in the next.  AMEN
