Back to Main What is Celebrate Recovery? What to Expect

Covenant United Methodist Church follows the national model for Celebrate Recovery first founded at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California:

"The purpose of Celebrate Recovery is to fellowship and celebrate God's healing power in our lives through 8 Recovery Principles. By working and applying these Biblical principles, we begin to grow spiritually. We become free from our addictive, compulsive and dysfunctional behaviors. This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy and most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with God and others. As we progress through the program we discover our personal, loving and forgiving Higher Power – Jesus Christ, the one and only true Higher Power."

Pastor John Baker,
Founder of Celebrate Recovery
Saddleback Church-Lake Forest, California
