LIFE is better when it's lived together! Everyone deserves a safe place where they can experience "LIFE TOGETHER" with friends.
In a Life Group, you will meet people at various stages in their Christianity who gather in various places on a semester basis, discussing various topics to develop their relationship with God and others. Members develop friendships, pray for one another's needs, and find ongoing ways to stay connected through social activities.
All of us long to be connected: It's how God created us! Our groups give you the opportunity to connect with other people just like you who are endeavoring to live life to the fullest for Jesus Christ. Life Groups let you pursue LIFE TOGETHER in the company of friends.
Our Groups focus on meeting needs in 8 different areas. We call them HUBS. They are:
- MEN
- WOMEN
- MARRIAGE & FAMILY
- DISCUSSION
- MISSION
- PRAYER
- STUDENTS & YOUNG ADULTS
- FREEDOM

Overcomers Outreach provides a two-way BRIDGE between traditional 12-Step support groups and people within the church. The meetings provide Christ-centered, recovery support and fellowship for those whose quality of life has suffered due to problems such as:
- addiction to drugs and alcohol
- eating disorders
- codependency
- sexual addiction
- pornography
- gambling
- addiction to spending and debt
- attention deficit disorder
The support group participants, whatever their need, find the extra care and encouragement necessary to grow beyond the wounds of life's battles, the difficulties in family relationships, the bondage of addictive habits and behaviors, and the isolation caused by shame. OO meetings are filled with the faith, hope, and love that only God can provide through Christ.

Most of us have been searching for ways to overcome the dilemmas of the conflicts in our relationships and our childhoods. Many of us were raised in families where addictions existed – some of us were not. We have each experienced in our own ways the painful trauma of the emptiness of our childhood and relationships throughout our lives. We attempted to use others – our mates, friends, and even our children, as our sole source of identity, value, and well-being, and as a way of trying to restore within us the emotional losses from our childhoods. We have all learned to survive life, but in CoDA we are learning to live life. May you instead find here a new strength within to be that which God intended – Precious and Free. If you have someone in your life with an addiction, we support each other here.
As this is an anonymous group, there will be no online registration. Simply contact Melanie directly for more information or any questions at 804-347-7364.
