What is Celebrate Recovery?

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered and Bible-based 12 Step Recovery Program. The purpose is to focus on God’s healing power through fellowship with others. By working the 12 Steps and the 8 Beatitude Principles, issue groups open up, share experiences, and explore hope. In this way, we become willing to accept God’s grace in solving our problems.  

Celebrate Recovery is held on Wednesday evenings beginning at 6:00 with a meal, followed by worship and small groups. Rev. Christopher Ciampa is the pastor for this service, along with a team of leaders.

Open House:  An Open House is scheduled for January 19, 2011 at 6:00 pm.  Come check out Celebrate Recovery. View the invitation here.
