What IS CR?
Celebrate recovery is
A Christ -centered, 12 step recovery program for anyone struggling with hurt, pain or addiction of any kind.
A safe place to find community and freedom from the issues that are controlling our lives.
We whole heartedly claim jesus christ as our higher power
We praise God for His mercy and grace. God’s mercy means that we did not get the things that we deserve. God’s grace means that we got so many things that we do not deserve. There is no condemnation in Christ Jesus!
We live in a broken world: broken families, broken lives. God’s plan is to rescue, redeem and restore.
Celebrate recovery provides
- A SAFE PLACE to unpack the baggage of hurts that prompted unhealthy habits.
- A new "FOREVER FAMILY" to replace the unhealthy relationships of the past.
- TOOLS FOR CHANGE following the 12 step process with the power of Jesus Christ as our higher power.
History of Celebrate recovery
Celebrate Recovery (CR) began in 1991 at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California
The Aim of the program is to help anyone seeking recovery from any number of life’s hurts, habits and hang-ups. What began at one local church has spread to more than 19,000 churches world wide. The CR materials have been translated into 24 languages.
CR began in Sheridan, WY in April, 2011 We are made up of all kinds of people with different personalities and issues, all seeking to find recovery in a Christ centered environment. It does not matter where you have been or what you have done, we welcome you here at CR. We have “been there” and want you to know you are not alone.
All of life’s hurts, habits and hang-ups are addressed through this one curriculum. CR is designed to help with numerous recovery areas.
