For more information about the IEC Recovery Program please call 416 747 7208 Ext. 283

'Are you struggling with hurts, habits and relational hang-ups or is your past preventing you from living in the present?  If so, IEC Recovery Program Study Groups is a place where you can find a haven of refuge and caring, make positive changes in your life, and grow and become strong again.  IEC Recovery Program is a biblical and balanced program based on the actual words of Jesus rather than psychological theory.  The principles of recovery are found – in their logical order – in the Sermon on the Mount (Matt. 5 – 7).  It is a progressive program designed to free you from the bondage of your past and set you on a healing path of freedom and growth.
 
The Study groups will begin on Wednesday January 26th and be held every Wednesday thereafter until the end of May. We invite you to be a part of this life-changing program.

Prayer for Serenity

God grant me the serenity to accept the things
I cannot change, the courage to change the things
I can,and the wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at
a time; accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;
taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is; not
as I would have it; trusting that You will make all
things right if I surrender to Your will; so that I may
be reasonably happy in this life and supremely
happy with You forever in the next.

Amen
