ABOUT US
Our mission is to help those in recovery discover Jesus and grow as his followers as He lives in us and sustains us in our recovery process.
We want to grow in our recovery - not only to claim we are sober - but continue to grow as followers of Jesus together.
We serve our church family; and, as we follow the example of Jesus, really live out the 12th step by serving the recovery community around us.

LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR
FCC has become a place where people gather who did not feel like the church of Christ cared anything about them, let alone our benevolent God. FCC Recovery believes that Jesus Christ is the Highest power. We feel that when those in recovery are embraced by the church of Christ miracles happen! And in connected community, we grow in sustained recovery. FCC Recovery’s priority is to love our community and surround our neighbor with the love of Christ and His church. In connecting with, and serving alongside, the Church we find healing and sustained recovery that can outlast the standard.
