Celebrate recovery

The goal of the Celebrate Recovery program is not simply to recover from past sins and hurts. The goal is to become Christlike in character. No sign up’s or reservation are necessary to participate, and you do not need to be a member of Morning Star Church to attend. Just come as you are, and you will be met with the love and transforming power that comes from Christ. For further question’s on this ministry,

Due to COVID-19 we are currently meeting exclusively online for large group
@ 7:00p every Thursday night on our Facebook Page.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

We begin to grow spiritually by working through the Christ-centered 12-steps and applying their eight Recovery principles found in the
Beatitudes of Matthew 5. We begin to experience freedom from our compulsive, dysfunctional and addictive behaviors.
This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy (Gal. 5:22), and most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with God and others.
We discover our personal, loving and forgiving higher power–Jesus Christ, as we progress through the program.

WHO'S IT FOR?

Celebrate recovery is for anyone struggling with a hurt, habit or hang-up. A hurt, habit or hang-up is something that hinders our walk with God.
The feeling of being HURT is an emotional reaction to another person’s behavior or a disturbing situation. (i.e., abuse, abandonment, divorce, co-dependency, rejection, relationship issues, etc.)
A HABIT is an addiction to alcohol, drugs, food, gambling, pornography, shopping, smoking, etc. HANG-UPS are negative mental attitudes that are used to cope with people or adversity.
(Anger, depression, fear, shame, unforgiveness, etc.)

IS CHILDCARE OFFERED?

Yes! We offer childcare at no cost. To register for childcare, please email Shane Laswell.
