The R4R initiative will be raising funds for rebuilding and renovating mission building space at Carver Road Baptist church to be utilized for multiple community outreach opportunities. Currently, Celebrate Recovery is utilizing this mission space for its program needs. Celebrate Recovery is a 12 step program helping individuals over come their addictions and compulsive behaviors through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
