Recovery
PERFECTS
An uplifting, trauma-informed, cognitive behavioral approach to whole-person transformation in a safe and nonjudgmental environment.
Recovery PERFECTS encourages us to follow Good Orderly Direction through active self-reflection, mindfulness and exploring how scripture teaches us to love ourselves and each other unconditionally, while still setting boundaries to stay safe and work toward our rich and meaningful lives.
All are welcome. Faith in a deity is not required. All you have to do is (try to) follow the principles of Good Orderly Direction: Prudence (patience and wisdom), Endurance, Respect for yourself and others, Forgiveness of yourself and others, Earnestness in all that you do and say, Compassion for yourself and others, Truthfulness with yourself and others, and Selflessness to the degree you can help outhers without hurting yourself.
Recovery PERFECTS is dedicated to fostering whole-person growth and transformation by embracing the principles of Good Orderly Direction (G.O.D) and creating a space where seekers can find solace, support, and spiritual growth on their unique journeys to healing and recovery. From time to time we may explore how PERFECTS principles are discussed in the bible, but you are welcome to find parallels in your own sacred or philosophical texts.
Welcome To
Recovery PERFECTS
We are a new type of fellowship that encourages you to live your life and judge your own actions based on the principles of Good Orderly Direction: Prudence (knowledge and patience), Earnestness (doing what you say you will to the best of your ability); Respect for yourself and others; Forgiveness of yourself and others in a safe and respectful way; Endurance of trials and challenges by seeking support in God and the fellowship; Compassion for yourself and others; Truthfulness with yourself and others and Selflessness (giving credit where credit is due and avoiding the pride trap).
Everyone who is part of the fellowship at Recovery PERFECTS is expected to try to follow the principles of Good Orderly Direction. However, most of us have never experienced this type of love and acceptance and may not have fully developed these skills. That is okay! All we expect is that you earnestly try.
You are not your behaviors. You are loveable, even if some of your behaviors are not. Through participation in the fellowship, you will learn new skills, strengthen your supports and begin using your energy to move toward a rich and meaningful life of abundance.
