Celebration Ministries
Celebrate Recovery meets two times a week. The Large Group, Newcomer 101 and Open Share Groups meet one time a week on Friday's, 7:00-9:00 pm, 52 weeks a year.
Step Study groups meet once per week until completion of the 4 participant guides. This typically is nine to twelve months. Each Step Study meeting typically lasts 1½ -2 hours.
The 4 participant guides are based on the 12 Christ-Centered Steps and the 8 Recovery Principles. Working through this allows us to "be changed". We open the door by sharing our experiences, strengths and hopes with one another. In addition, we become willing to accept God's grace in solving our life problems.
By working and applying these Biblical principles, we begin to grow spiritually. We 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.
You may be thinking that recovery is just for those with alcohol or drug problems. Only about one-third of the people attending Celebrate Recovery are dealing with chemical dependencies. We all have sinned, we’ve all fallen short, we’ve all been hurt, and we’ve all hurt others. Everybody needs recovery. All of life’s hurts, habits, and hang-ups are addressed through this one curriculum.
Step Study Groups meet at various locations in and around the Hagerstown area. If you would like more information on how you can be a part of a Step Study, contact us today.
