Friday we will go over the READY lesson. Let's turn over our character defects. They don't define or confine us anymore!

Saturday is our CR family picnic. Hotdogs and drinks will be provided. Please bring a dish to pass. Also, bring your friends or family too. If you have any yard games or group games, bring them too!

Our can/bottle returnable drive is still going on. If you would like to, drop them in the blue barrel by the chapel.

Mark your calendar for Saturday, August 3rd, from 10am to 2pm for our annual CR family picnic! This will be in the courtyard at Connection Church. Hot dogs and drinks will be provided, so please bring a dish to pass. Bring your family to it, and let's all enjoy a time of fellowship!

This week our TEAM and some leaders are out of town attending the Summit. The Summit is an intense couple days of CR related activities. There are many classes, testimonies, learning and fellowship events. It is geared towards increasing recovery at the individual level but also at the CR group level. They will bring back what they learned, what moved them and what God spoke to them about; all to further all of our recoveries. This is part of what our offerings and fundraisers go towards. So that all brings me to this- We currently have our summer bottle/can drive going. If you feel led to, bring your returnables to CR and there will be a blue barrel outside the chapel doors. Just put them in there and they will be returned and donated towards the CR ministry.

Friday we will go over our CONFESS lesson. This is where Jesus really shows his love for us; his never ending, unconditional love for us.

Happy early independence day! It's great celebrating America's independence but let's always be thankful for the blessing of true freedom through Christ!

Let's also be prepared this holiday. Holiday's can be full of triggers, from get togethers to being alone- triggers will be there and pile up. Call your recovery crew, send one another a check up text, if nothing else works- message this page.

This week we will start our can drive as part of a way to raise funds to continue our mission to be self-supporting. These funds help train leaders with conferences, help cover food costs and provide means to do special events like our anniversary celebration.

There will be a barrel to place any bottles that are returnable for deposit and the plan is to accept them up til September.

The inventory can be ohhh so tough, hard, emotional, and scary. But it will all be worth it, every last bit of it. Pray for the courage to take your fearless and through inventory and give it to God!

Friday we will have the second part of our spiritual inventory lesson.

On Friday we will go over the step 4 INVENTORY lesson. This inventory should be through and honest. Remember, Jesus gave his life on the cross for ALL of our sins and shortcomings. Use this inventory to honor his sacrifice and free yourself!

Don't forget to pencil in a family and friend CR fellowship day at the Toledo zoo on June 22nd.

CR at Connection Church Canton.

Come one, come ALL, to a CR fellowship event!!! Really though, come all- so bring your family and/or friends to the Toledo Zoo and join CR for a fun time judging and gossiping about all the quirky animals! June 22nd is the date and more details will trickle out as we get closer.

Codependency is a tough subject to really define or recognize. It is a fine line between being helpful and caring versus losing yourself by needing the approval of others. Join us Friday to hear Theresa's (Northville Christian CR) testimony of her life change through Christ and the struggles she overcame.

Join us Friday for pizza and a testimony! We always say in CR to relate and not to compare. Listen to this testimony of a changed life and relate to it and how Jesus changed your life. Or maybe you're not quite at the change part; relate to the hurt, habit and hang-up and how it controlled the speakers life and then find hope in how Jesus changed it!

Also, remember we will have our Mother of all Bake Sales on Mother's Day. We would love for everyone help support our group and bake an item or two, buy an item or donate money to be used for the sale. However, we are all in different walks of life and we totally understand if you can't commit to those, in which, prayers for a successful and meaningful sale will completely be appreciated!
