Celebrate Recovery Thursday 6:30-9:30pm Gathering Place

At some point in our lives, most of us realize that our hurts, hang-ups and habits are getting in our way. They can suffocate, restrict and rob us of our joy. We may ignore our struggles with codependence, compulsiveness, marital struggles, control issues, the ghosts from our family of origin, etc. But we crave healing and long for spiritual growth. This can be provided through a supportive, compassionate, confidential community of faith.

Christ-based 12-Step Recovery Program
Weekly Step Study Groups
These groups lay the foundation for the 12 steps to recovery and enable people to discover "what's up" with them in a confidential, supportive setting. Participants seem to come from diverse, yet amazingly similar, life experiences. As fears subside, participants feel that the group is "a safe place to be."

Participants join hands and journey through the 12 step process—one step at a time. Love, honesty and accountability, along with sponsor and mentor relationships, are an integral part of this ongoing program.

Do I have to belong to Chapel Hill to participate?
No! The entire community is welcome to join us. We are committed to present Jesus Christ, who is the compassionate and powerful solution to our powerlessness over sin, over self, over all addictions and compulsions.

Is there a charge for the program?
Nope. There is no charge for any of Celebrate Recovery's programs. We make our study guides and related materials available at our cost.

We also have a Thursday night program designed for high school students:

Life Hurts / God Heals

Life Hurts/God Heals is a faith-based experience… a home to discover who you were made to be. This is a small, group-centered series where confidentiality and acceptance are our priorities. Life Hurts/God Heals is designed for high school and middle school students seeking support for school/family/relationship pressure or struggles.

The Life Hurts God Heals program is over until Fall 2008. There are some summer activities planned. If you have questions or are interested in registering for the next session please contact Lori White @ 853.0291.

At this critical time of your life you need God, others and hope for the future. We offer that and more—a community of people who will walk with you and heal with you. Whether you are struggling with your faith journey or whether you are very clear on who God is in your life... whether it has been days or years since the end of your marriage...whether separated or long-time divorced...you have work to do and hope to find. Find it at Divorce Recovery!

Our evening begins at Celebrate Recovery in the Gathering Place from 6:30—7:15pm for great worship, fellowship and encouragement. Then at 7:15pm we move to the Memorial Chapel for Divorce Recovery. Cost is $35 which includes the book, materials and snacks. Alumni fee is $20. [Childcare is available for children up to age 11. Reservations required. Call 853.0219]
