Frequently Asked Questions

Is Celebrate Recovery for me? 

Celebrate Recovery offers a person the opportunity to participate in a group fellowship where love and hope combine with God’s purpose to mend our lives.

​

Ask yourself:

Are there things in my life that I do that hurt others?

Is there something I wish I could live without?

Is it time to crack my denial and admit I am not in control of my life?

Do I have a painful habit or hang-up from which I need to be freed? 

 

If you answered “yes” to any of these statements then we urge you to attend a Celebrate Recovery meeting to see if it is for you. 

​

Do I have to Join?

Is Celebrate Recovery a Safe Place? 

Yes. Celebrate Recovery maintains strict confidentiality. This promotes an atmosphere of trust and enables recovery. We have a saying that is repeated in every Large Group meeting: WHO you see here. WHAT you hear here. WHEN you leave here. STAYS HERE. We are diligent about confidentiality and anonymity. The FIVE guidelines/rules protect all of us from judgment and being “fixed”. It creates a “safe place” you can take off your “mask” and be real and honest without fear. 

 

What are the Five Guidelines/Rules?

  1. Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts and feelings.  Limit your sharing to three to five minutes.

  2. There is NO cross talk.  Cross talk is when two individuals engage in conversation excluding all others.  Each person is free to express his or her feelings without interruptions.

  3. We are here to support one another, not "fix" another.

  4. Anonymity and confidentiality are basic requirements.  What is shared in the group stays in the group.  The only exception is when someone threatens to injure themselves or others.

  5. Offensive language has no place in a Christ-centered recovery group.
