Last weekend we were at Seacoast Community Church in Encinitas, CA - Wow, what a weekend. The Networking Event was outstanding. This was the first Event of this type in the San Diego area and was very well attended. Thanks to the State Reps - George T. (Inland Empire), Jim D. (Bakersfield), Cathy T. (Long Beach) for making this such a great day! Also thanks to all the volunteers who provided an entire day of service and to Bob N. for providing the facility, and his expertise as a pastor and overseer for the event.

We heard very powerful mini-monies throughout the day and some great discussion about the ministries that are already running as well as excellent questions from those who were exposed, for the first time, to Celebrate Recovery.

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered program directed to EVERYONE with a hurt, hang-up or habit. I guess the best way to explain this is by asking someone the following 3 questions and then making that statement that follows:

1. Have you ever been hurt?
2. Have you ever hurt anyone else?
3. Have you ever sinned?

The statement:

"Welcome to Celebrate Recovery!"

This program is a safe place where anyone can come and discuss their issue(s) within their group and know that they are in the "right place".

Go on-line to http://www.celebraterecovery.com/ and select "Find a Group" in the "upper right corner" of the 'front page'. The locations are listed by state (select a state) and then the locations are listed alphabetically by city. And, keep checking back because there are new Celebrate Recovery ministries being added all the time.

If you know of a CR ministry and you don't see it on the web-site, let us know about it - we want to make sure they get the exposure and benefit of using this great resource!

See you soon!
