EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT

Celebrate Recovery meets every Friday night to help you with life's hurts, hang-ups, and habits!   You do not need to be a member of Journey Church to attend Celebrate Recovery.

7:00-8:00 p.m. - Large Group Session
Everyone meets together for a time of worship then a teaching or a testimony in the Worship Center.  There is no pre-registration or sign-ups. Upon arrival you will be greeted by a greeter and introduced to others.

8:00-9:00 p.m. - Open Share Groups
This is the time to break into recovery specific groups. Meet others with similar hurts, hang-ups and habits. These groups are gender specific.

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered, Bible-based 12 step recovery program that helps participants begin dealing with life’s hurts, hang-ups and habits. Developed by Pastor’s Rick Warren (author of The Purpose Driven Life) and John Baker from Saddleback Church, the program is now active in more than 12,000 locations nationwide.

Celebrate Recovery differs from other 12-step programs in that it is a “large umbrella” program that does not restrict participation to only those with drug, alcohol, gambling or any other single issue- there are no requirements for membership. Celebrate Recovery has been effective in dealing, not only with substance abuse and compulsive activities such as gambling, but in offering help to those dealing with emotional and sexual abuse, co-dependency, anger and many other dysfunctional behaviors.  Anyone with a desire to work the steps for healing with any number of hurts, hang-ups or habits may attend.

The group meets every Friday evening at 7 p.m. at Journey Church, click here for directions. The program begins with a large group meeting for a time of worship and teaching and then breaks up into smaller, gender-specific groups for a time of safe and confidential sharing.
