Celebration Place at Northside Christian Church

Mental Health Month is coming up!

Did you know May is Mental Health Awareness Month?
Did you know CR has a Mental Health Ministry?

The Mental Health Ministry's mission is to equip local Celebrate Recovery's to empower individuals to achieve serenity with their mental health.

Our purpose is to raise awareness of mental health and create a safe place to continue conversations and to support mental health through the implementation of Mental Health Champions at each CR location. To encourage Christ-centered sponsorship, provide tools such as mental health forums, the Mental Health Agreement form and the CR Su***de Protocol. These tools help equip our leaders and sponsors to effectively walk alongside our participants struggling with mental health.

Celebrate Recovery is not a replacement for professional counseling, therapy, and/or medical treatment. We provide encouragement and support to supplement those efforts. Living with mental health issues can be difficult.

However, learning to walk in mental health recovery gives us hope. Living one day at a time, one moment at a time, implementing the 8 Principles and 12 steps, it is possible to live in peace and joy. Jesus cares about our mental health. 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV) He tells us "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."

Jesus Christ is the secret to Celebrate Recovery. That's why it works! Celebrate Recovery wouldn't exist without Jesus Christ. The reality is we can't earn our way into heaven! No matter how hard we work, only by professing our faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior can we experience His grace and have eternal life.

What are you leaning on Jesus for today?

John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Scripture tells us that He did not give us a spirit of fear or being timid.

Fear traps us. It enslaves us. It keeps us from living the life that God has for us. You’re not alone when you share your hope in Christ. God is with you.

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”
‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬

Due to the deteriorating weather conditions, we have decided to postpone our 2 year anniversary party until February 6, 2023. We are not meeting tonight at all for your safety and ours.

The Psalmist nailed it when it comes to how well God knows us:

“For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭13‬-‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬
