Celebrate Recovery at Cornerstone Church in Litchfield (320) 593-7971

Mondays 6-8 pm |  Litchfield Site

Celebrate Recovery (CR) is not a standard 12-step addiction program but instead is for anyone who desires to get past their hurts, habits, and hang-ups, including the challenges of anxiety and various degrees of depression. 

CR was developed by Saddleback Church in 1991 and has been growing ever since. Thousands of churches are now using this approach to encourage community and to celebrate God’s healing power in our lives as we work our way along the road to recovery. We are changed as we share our experiences, strengths, and hopes with one another, and become willing to accept God’s grace and forgiveness in solving our life’s problems.  We use the classic 12 steps as they relate to a biblical passage and also incorporate 8 key principles based on the beatitudes. By working through the principles, we grow spiritually and are set free from our hurts, habits, and hang-ups. This freedom creates peace, joy, and most importantly personal relationships with others and our savior, Jesus Christ.
