What CR Is / What CR Isn't:

Celebrate Recovery IS:

• A safe place to share

• A refuge

• A place of belonging

• A place to care for others and be cared for

• A place to learn

• A place where respect is given to each member

• A place where confidentiality is highly regarded

• A place to grow and become strong again

• A place where you can take off your mask

• A place for healthy challenges

• A possible turning point in your life

Celebrate Recovery IS NOT:

• A place for selfish control, therapy, secrets or a quick fix

• A place to look for dating relationships

• A place to rescue or be rescued

• A place for perfection

• A place to judge or be judged

Weekly Meetings:

Celebrate Recovery meets every Tuesday at The Benton Church located at 14300 SW 20th Street in Benton, Kansas.  The meetings each week are as follows:

6:30PM to 7:00PM = Fellowship with snacks and coffee

7:00PM to 8:00PM = Large Group Time (Worship, Testimony/Lesson)

8:00PM to 9:00PM = Small Group Time (Women's & Men's Groups)

One Tuesday meeting a month, we get together for a meal rather than just snacks and coffee.  For the specific dates on when meals will be offered, please contact the church at 316-778-1001 or contact Cindy Schwemmer at cindyschwemmer@sbcglobal.net.  Free child care will be available but please call in advance to make arrangements.  The number to arrange child care is 316-409-9075.
