About Us
We are not meant to do life alone!
At Celebration Church we exist to welcome the spiritually curious and create a community of devoted disciples where we can Love God, Learn the ways of Jesus, and Live with Purpose - together!
Our Vision
At Celebration Church we exist to create a community of devoted disciples who Love God and Love His people! When we live as a community of devoted disciples Jesus is made known and the spiritually curious will come to see, and find life in His name! What does it look like to live as a community of devoted disciples? It is where we do these three things together:
Love God
We Love God because He first loved us. The most important command of Jesus is to Love God with all that we are! This is why we gather to worship, to pray, to encourage each other to obey King Jesus!
Learn the ways of Jesus
To belong to Jesus we must be His disciples. A disciple is a student, someone who is learning from all that Jesus taught and the way of life that He gives us! This is why we open the Bible together, and gather together in smaller groups to challenge one another to walk in the way of King Jesus!
Live with Purpose
When we belong to Jesus we receive life in Him! The life of Jesus changes us from the inside out so that we can live our lives with the full beauty, power and impact that God designed us for! When we live from Gods life changing love we can bring God's love into every space of our life!

Our Beliefs
The Bible
+
We believe that the Bible is God’s Word to us. It was written by people under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, it is completely accurate, authoritative and applicable to our everyday lives.
God
+
We believe there is only one God who exists eternally and is the Creator of all things. God exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Each member of the Trinity is fully and equally God, yet personally distinct from one another. God is totally loving and completely holy.
Sin
+
We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.
Jesus
+
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only one who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross in our place taking the full and complete punishment for our sin, and rose again to prove His victory over sin and death and to empower us for life.
Forgivness
+
We believe that forgiveness and ‘new birth’ are a free gift acquired through faith in Jesus. We exercise our faith through repentance, belief in the Lord Jesus Christ, and confession of our sin.
Holy Spirit
+
We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptized in water and receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit - an empowering work of the Spirit, distinct from the regenerating work of the Spirit which is offered to every Christian at salvation. We believe that all of the gifts of the Spirit included in the New Testament continue to be expressed in the church today and are subject to the order prescribed by Scripture.
The Church
+
We believe in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly with a community of fellow believers for worship, instruction, fellowship, encouragement, and prayer. We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and blessed lives in order to help others more effectively.
The Future
+
We believe in the bodily resurrection of everyone who has lived and that our eternal destination of either Heaven or Hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.
