New Ministry Coming to The Lighthouse! Celebrate Recovery Begins in the Spring, 2027
Celebrate Recovery is a ministry which began in 1991 to create a safe place for people to find freedom from the issues controlling their lives. Their Mission Statement is simple: “Celebrate Recovery (CR) exists to help people find freedom and healing from their hurts, hang-ups and habits through a relationship with Jesus Christ.” The first meeting 43 people attended; since then, thousands of churches around the world have started a Celebrate Recovery ministry, and many thousands of people have found healing and freedom. We are excited to bring this ministry to our community! Please be in prayer for this ministry as our leaders are trained in the months ahead, preparing to be used by the Lord to bring healing and hope to all who respond.
10:00 AM - Coffee & Connect Time in Allaman Hall. Come enjoy a great cup of coffee, a donut and some time with old friends and new!
