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!

March 2016

As Spring quickly approaches, we continue to move through Step 2, which says, "We came to believe that a power greater than ourselves (Jesus Christ) could restore us to sanity."  There are many special events and activities going on this month, please visit our church blog for more details (firstbaptistchurchnewbrighton.blogspot.com).  March 18 and 25 will be special nights at Celebrate Recovery as we take time to celebrate the One who frees us from our chains of bondage to addiction, resentments, hurts, and habits.  I hope you will join us every Friday, no matter if you are currently struggling with an addiction or resentment or if you've been celebrating victory over those things for years.  We aren't here to fix each other (we couldn't if we wanted to), we are here to encourage and strengthen each other, hold each other accountable, and celebrate what God is doing in our lives.
