Celebrate Recovery deals with many issues. We call these issues hurts, habits and hang-ups. At the present time, we have 7 small groups that are gender specific: Men’s chemical dependency; men’s mixed issue group; women’s chemical dependency; women’s sexual abuse; women’s mixed issue group; newcomers group; and a youth group. At the present time, we are looking for a children leader to deal with children of our CR parents because we believe that children experience the effects of addictions and need guidance as well.
One issue that we are dealing with is “huffing”. One person in our group who started huffing at age 17 gave his testimony. He spent 4 years huffing almost every day and it has caused a lot of damage to his brain and motor skills. He accepted Christ as his Savior on April 28, 2010 and Jesus has taken away his addiction, restoring many family relationships and his health is slowly improving. Pray for him.
Are you looking for a CR group? We have two in our Association: Metropolitan Baptist on Monday evenings and Midway Baptist on Tuesday evenings. Want to start a group? Contact Tom Melton at Midway Baptist.
Tom Melton is a member of Midway Baptist Church, and leads their Celebrate Recovery Program.
