Childcare is offered for ages 0 to 10 years. (Entrance at East Wing.)

CR at Mustang Naz has a variety of volunteer positions available. If you are interested, please complete the form below. Our goal is to love people from all walks of life and to be a safe place for people to heal from their past and grow in their relationship with Christ.

*Volunteers must be 18 years or older.

Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over our addictions and compulsive behaviors, that our lives had become unmanageable.

“I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.” Romans 7:18 NIV

Step 2: We came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

“For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.” Philippians 2:13 NIV

Step 3: We made a decision to turn our lives and our wills over to the care of God.

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.” Romans 12:1 NIV

Step 4: We made a searching and fearless honest inventory of ourselves.

“Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord.” Lamentations 3:40 NIV

Step 5: We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our hurts, hang-ups and habits.

“Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” James 5:16a NIV

Step 6: We were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.

“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.” James 4:10 NIV

Step 7: We humbly asked Him to remove all our shortcomings.

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 NIV

Step 8: We made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all.

“Do to others as you would have them do to you.” Luke 6:31 NIV

Step 9: We made direct amends to such people whenever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

“Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.” Matthew 5:23-24 NIV

Step 10: We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.

“So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!” 1 Corinthians 10:12 NIV

Step 11: We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, praying only for knowledge of His will for us, and power to carry that out.

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.” Colossians 3:16a NIV

Step 12: Having had a spiritual experience as the result of these steps, we try to carry this message to others and practice these principles in all our affairs.

“Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore them gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted.” Galatians 6:1 NIV

Throughout this material, you will notice several references to the Christ-centered 12 Steps. Our prayer is that Celebrate Recovery will create a bridge to the millions of people who are familiar with the secular 12 Steps (I acknowledge the use of some material from the 12 Suggested Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous) and in so doing, introduce them to the one and only true Higher Power, Jesus Christ. Once they begin that relationship, asking Christ into their hearts as Lord and Savior, true healing and recovery can begin!

Principle 1: Realize I’m not God. I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and that my life is unmanageable. (Step 1)

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3 NIV

Principle 2: Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him and that He has the power to help me recover. (Step 2)

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” Matthew 5:4 NIV

Principle 3: Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ’s care and control. (Step 3)

“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” Matthew 5:5 NIV

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” Matthew 5:6 NIV

Principle 6: Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make amends for harm I’ve done to others when possible, except when to do so would harm them or others. (Steps 8 and 9)

“Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” Matthew 5:7 NIV

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” Matthew 5:9 NIV

Principle 7: Reserve a daily time with God for self-examination, Bible reading, and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain the power to follow His will. (Steps 10 and 11)

Principle 8: Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and my words. (Step 12)

“Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:10 NIV
