1 . Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts and feelings. Please limit your sharing to 3-5 minutes.

2 . There will be no cross talk please. Cross talk is when two individuals engage in dialogue, excluding all others. Each person is free to express feelings without interruption.

3 . We are here to support one another. We will not attempt to “fix” another.

4 . Anonymity and confidentiality are basic requirements. What is shared in the group stays in the group!

5 . Offensive language has no place in a Christ-centered group.

Small Groups Can

• Provide you a safe place to share your experiences, strengths and hopes with others who are going through the “Principles” in a Christ-Centered recovery.
• Provide you a leader who has gone through a similar hurt, hang-up on habit that will facilitate the group as it focuses on a particular Step each week. The leader will also keep Celebrate Recovery's “FIVE RULES.
• Provide you with the opportunity to find an accountability partner or sponsor.
• Encourage you to attend other recovery meetings held throughout the week, if available.

Small Groups Will Not
