It brings us great joy to announce the 50th Anniversary of CELEBRATION CHURCH at Columbia! It’s incredible to think that a small group of people gathered 50 years ago with a deep desire to plant a new church in a new community. To commemorate this momentous milestone, Celebration will host special events throughout the year. Everything will culminate during Legacy Week – November 5-12, 2023. Legacy week will be marked by a leadership and church development conference, a legacy gala, and the legacy music experience. We would love to have you as our special guest during Legacy Week. Below please find details about our legacy events, hotel information, and registration links.
