There is healing in tears... and hope in Celebrate Recovery.
"When we dare to live as forgiven men and women, we join the wounded healers and draw closer to Jesus." - Brennan Manning, Abba's Child
That statement is also true for Celebrate Recovery; we are all wounded healers longing for freedom from the past and direction for the future. It doesn't matter what you struggle with, Celebrate recovery is a program for everyone. It's a program that offers a safe place for you to grow with others in the Freedom that only Christ can give. His purpose for us is to be whole and complete and He uses our hurts, habits, & hangups to get us there.
"If we conceal our wounds out of fear and shame, our inner darkness can neither be illuminated nor become a light for others."
-Brennan Manning, Abba's Child

The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity, to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time,
accepting hardship as a pathway to peace. Taking this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it, trusting that you will make all things right
if I surrender to your will. So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
and supremely happy with you forever in the next. Amen.
~Reinhold Niebuhr
