Recovery MinistryWelcome to Faith Fellowship Celebrate Recovery
Faith
Fellowship Celebrate Recovery is a place to celebrate God’s healing
power in our lives by using simple steps and principles of
recovery to our lives. This experience allows us to be changed. We
start this process by sharing our experiences, strengths and hopes with
one another. Soon we become willing to accept God’s grace in solving
our problems. By applying these Biblical principles, we begin to
grow spiritually and become free from our addictive, compulsive and
dysfunctional behaviors. This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy and
most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with God and others.
As we progress through the program, we discover our personal, loving
and forgiving Higher Power – Jesus Christ, the one and only true Higher
Power.

Doesn’t “Recovery” mean I need to be recovering from alcohol or drugs? No.
This ministry is for all types of problems and addictions which are
unhealed, unmet, or unresolved. Confidential, safe environment.
Problems such as; overeating, overworking, overspending, sexual
addiction, depression, co-dependency, drug/alcohol addiction, anger,
fear/ anxiety, past sexual abuse, controlling behavior, hurtful
relationship, guilt/shame, gambling, insecurity, divorce, and
pornography.
Who leads this ministry? Christians,
who understand the challenges you’re facing, have taken the time to be
trained in the 12-step program and care enough to want to help.
How can Celebrate Recovery help me? By
linking its four main components; fellowship, Bible study,
worship/teaching, and support, you will discover a defense against sin
and experience a fresh start from any difficulty which may be
preventing you from living the life God intended for you. It is only
through the saving grace of God that healing will begin and a new
direction for your life will emerge. Ultimately we can become free from
our addictive, compulsive, and dysfunctional behaviors bringing peace,
serenity, joy and most importantly a stronger personal relationship
with God and others.
What is a hurt, habit or hang-up?
A hurt, habit or hang-up is something that hinders your walk with God.
- Hurt:
an emotional reaction to another person’s behavior or to a disturbing
situation (divorce, rejection, betrayal, abuse, a loved one’s addiction
or other dysfunctional behavior).
- Habit: addiction to someone or something (alcohol, drugs, prescription medication, food, sex, pornography, gambling, work, spending)
- Hang-up: negative mental attitude used to cope with people or adversity (anger, depression, fear, unforgiveness).
These life problems can be stumbling blocks or stepping stones.
Healing is available through applying the principles of a Bible-based recovery process to your life.
