Illinois CREDO Recovery

As you know, the power of addiction can be overwhelming for many. We know that the power of Christ is greater. At Credo Recovery, we help men and women who desire recovery from addiction through the indwelling power of Jesus Christ. Credo focuses on seeking intimate friendship with God in order to break unhealthy attachments and addictions.

Our purpose is to present the redemptive relationship found in Christ, teach spiritual disciplines for developing personal devotion to God through Jesus Christ and encourage love of self and others through Christian Community.

Credo is a carefully structured community-building method centered upon a team approach to a Weekend Retreat. The Weekend retreat grows out of strong Pre Weekend Team Formations, and concludes with Monthly Post Weekend follow-up meetings. The ministry is led by lay-persons with assistance from ordained clergy.

Our program begins with approximately 30 hours of spiritual team formations before engaging the new participants in a 3½ -Day event conducted on a weekend. The 3½ day weekend is followed with a planned program of weekly instructional reunions, monthly reunions for the men, monthly reunions for the women, and weekly prayer & share accountability groups.
