The purpose of the Celebrate Recovery Ministry at First Baptist is to change the course of our lives, from following selfish ambitions and personal desires which end up causing us so much grief, to knowing and following God's perfect and Christ-centered plan and purpose for our lives which will by necessity lead us out of bondage to our old, painful resentments, hurts, addictions, and habits. Our healing is to be for His glory, not our own satisfaction.


We are once again holding in-person meetings!

Step 11

Thanks to everyone from our Celebrate Recovery groups and First Baptist Church who helped with our New Brighton parade float!  We once again used our "jail cell" float asking, "what prison are YOU in?"  We handed out over 1,100 flyers to the adults and 600 candy packets to the kids along the parade route.

If you received one of those flyers, or whatever brings you to our website, I hope that you will take the next step and come and meet us on a Friday night.  We all have struggles in this life, some struggle with anger and resentment, some with finances or health issues, others with alcohol or drugs, and many of us struggle with relationships and grief.  No matter what is troubling you, there is hope and there is help from people who care about you because God cares about you; I trust you will meet them here on a Friday night at Celebrate recovery.

We are currently on Step 11 of the 12, but if you are coming for the first time, or you haven't been to a meeting in a long time, I trust you will be blessed for being here.
