Serve Here
Use your unique gifts to help build the Kingdom at Celebration.
In the Bible the Church is described as one body with many parts(1 Corinthians 12). Each of us in the Celebration family is a part of that body and we all have a part in making that body work. We are called to use our gifts and talents to serve each other and the Church. Below you will find some of the ways that you can be a part of the Body of Christ at Celebration by serving!
Team Celebration is the way to get connected to serving! Visit the "Serve Here" tent on the runway to start the simple three step process to connecting.
