Resurrection Recovery
Join us no matter where you are in your recovery journey!
Because we take the health and well-being of our congregation, staff and community very seriously, we have decided that we will not hold Resurrection Recovery Night in person until further notice. Instead, we will post stories like the video above (also available through the Resurrection Recovery Podcast site). Many support groups will also continue to meet using video chats, so check with your leader about how to get connected in that way.
If you are trying to connect with your support group leader but you don’t have their contact information, please contact Pastor Tom Langhofer via email at Tom.Langhofer@cor.org or call 913-544-0219, and he will connect you with the leader. Several of the leaders will be conducting their Thursday recovery meetings at various times throughout the week, including Thursday evenings.

Co-Dependents Anonymous
Overland Park Group
Email Tom Langhofer for information about online meetings.
Co-Dependents Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women whose common purpose is to develop healthy relationships. The only requirement for membership is a desire for healthy and loving relationships. We gather together to support and share with each other in a journey of self-discovery -- learning to love the self. Living the program allows each of us to become increasingly honest with ourselves about our personal histories and our own codependent behaviors.
We rely upon the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions for knowledge and wisdom. These are the principles of our program and guides to developing honest and fulfilling relationships with ourselves and others. In CoDA, we each learn to build a bridge to a Higher Power of our own understanding, and we allow others the same privilege.
The renewal process is a gift of healing for us. By actively working the program of Co-Dependents
Anonymous, we can each realize a new joy, acceptance and serenity in our lives.
