Celebrate Recovery

Celebrate Recovery is a biblical and balanced program to help people overcome their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. Whatever is behind the pain in your life, procrastination, guilt, anger, rage, fear, anxiety, divorce, alcohol abuse, perfectionism, insecurity, overspending, overworking, overeating, grief, abuse, drugs, codependency, sexual addictions, hypochondria, hurtful relationships, gambling, lying or the need to control? Celebrate Recovery helps you face and resolve the problem behind the pain.

Anyone and everyone.

Ages 12 and above.

We have all hurt ourselves, we’ve all hurt other people, and others have hurt us. This means each of us needs to heal from the effects these hurts have on us and from the control they have in our lives.

Celebrate Recovery will provide a safe place for you to begin to work on issues that have been keeping you trapped and separated from the life that God intended for you to live and, in some cases, things that have kept you separated from God.

Celebrate Recovery meets every Friday night at 7 pm.

A free dinner is served in the foyer at 7:00 pm. Large group worship and teaching begins at 7:30 pm. Everyone meets together for a time of worship then a teaching or a testimony. There is no pre-registration or sign-ups. Upon arrival you will be greeted by someone who will help you become acclimated.

• Step study groups begin at 8:00 pm, immediately following large group.

• Small Open Share Groups (gender-specific) begin at 8 pm. This is the time to break into recovery specific groups and share and hear from others with similar hurts, habits, and hang-ups.

At DaySpring Community Church, 1100 Business Park Drive, Clinton, MS 39056.

You do not have to sign up; just show up!

Yes, for children 10 years of age and younger. Parents/caregivers must remain on-site for Celebrate Recovery activities.

There is no charge or fees.

Though Celebrate Recovery is not a “course,” the structure of the teaching on Friday nights repeats every year. This way, you can begin anytime. It takes approximately 9-12 months to complete a step study.

Participant Guides – $5 each for the step studies.

The small groups are gender-specific.

No. There is no pressure or requirement to share.

Like you, the leaders are people who are repenting and/or recovering from the hurts, habits, and hang-ups in their lives. They have completed the participant’s guides, have received the recommended training for leadership in Celebrate Recovery, remain accountable in their specific area of recovery, and desire to serve and help others find wholeness, growth, and spiritual maturity.

Most people are familiar with the classic 12-step programs of AA and other groups. Based on the actual words of Jesus, Celebrate Recovery incorporates the eight recovery principles found in the Beatitudes with the 12-steps.

Yes. Providing a safe place where anonymity is respected is a priority. CR provides a safe place so you can be real and truly heal.

The “road to recovery” from our hurts, habits, and hang-ups leads to wholeness, growth, and spiritual maturity. It doesn’t get much better than that. We don’t attend to try and fix one another; we attend to support one another on the road to recovery.

If you desire to serve, there are many different opportunities! If you are not serving, you are not truly in recovery, so please ask any leader how to start serving.

The most significant growth and level of accountability takes place in the weekly step studies. Using the Celebrate Recovery participant’s guides, members of these gender-specific groups study each of the 12 steps and answer and discuss questions at the end of each lesson. CR helps you face and resolve the problem behind the pain. Men’s/Women’s step studies meet every Friday following a large group.
