GriefShare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. Each GriefShare session has three distinct elements: video seminar, support group & personal reflection. Meets Sunday afternoons starting September 10th with our friends at Moncton Wesleyan. For more information, please contact Rhoda Sturgeon at (506) 523-3861.
Celebrate Recovery
Celebrate Recovery (CR) is a biblically-based, recovery program that addresses our Hurts, Hang-ups, and Habits using a 12-step approach based on the Beatitudes from the book of Matthew. CR leaders, understand your struggles, as they have experienced freedom from addictive and dysfunctional patterns in their own lives. They have been trained to guide people through the 12 Steps/8 Principles, and to provide a safe environment for accountability and building authentic relationships. Tuesday’s at 6:30 pm with our friends at Moncton Wesleyan.
