Mission and Values | Celebration Church

God-First is our foundational value that expresses itself in the following ways:

• Experiential Worship - Places value on encountering God through songs not only sung about God, but to Him in an environment that invites His presence.
• Transformational Discipleship - Is learning that exhibits a transformation- there should be a change in the way you live and how you love others.
• Authentic Relationships - Real relationships that establish heartfelt community.
• Strategic Service - Where your unique gifting and wiring matches your area of service.
• Impactful Evangelism - Goes beyond just influencing people, it’s reaching them for Christ and connecting them to a local church. We want to have a sustainable impact.

Accepting Atmosphere

Accepting Atmosphere is our cultural value that incorporates the following:

• Attractively Diverse - The beautiful church that looks like heaven with every nation and race represented.
• Genuinely Sincere - No masks, no undue formality, no pretense.
• Comfortably Friendly - Not overly friendly and weird, just relaxed and at ease in how everyone is received.
• Intellectually Safe - Leading people through deliberate explanation into an understanding of their experience.
• Outward Focused - Because “once you’re focused inward it’s over.”

Relevant Environments

Relevant Environments is our expressional value that embodies the following:

• Intentionally Designed - Environments that provide a place that expresses the particular preferences of any given ministry group.
• Targeted Ministry - Requires having specific goals for ministry to children (nursery to high school) and by meeting the expressed and felt needs of adults as well.
• Culturally Connecting - Provides for generational and cultural differences that relate to individual expectations and helps people to remain engaged in their experience.
• Predictably Enjoyable - Embraces an environment where people can anticipate their experience will be real, relevant and enjoyable.
• Visibly Safe - Provides the processes of safety incorporated in our ministries and the presence of security and ushers is obvious and intentional.
