Celebrate Recovery meets in Brighton

Over two dozen people from Brighton, Fairfield, Wayland, Olds and Washington met at the Brighton Community Church Oct. 15 for Celebrate Recovery. The evening included praise and worship music and a lesson on the value for one's recovery from hurts habits and hangups of yielding oneself to God to be used to bring the spiritual experience of recovery to others, both by example and words (to give).

There was also an opportunity for gender-specific optional individual sharing, including two women's sharing groups, one for those struggling with chemical dependencies, and one for all other hurts, habits or hangups. There were age-appropriate activities for eight children at the Brighton Church of God Gym. The evening began with a shared meal. Contributions for the next meal can be made by contacting Sharon at smwagner123@gmail.com.

The next weekly Celebrate Recovery meeting will be held on Thursday, Oct. 22 at the Brighton Community Church at 6 p.m..
