Today I attended Celebration in Shreveport, La. I Absolutely Loved It the WORD was Great and I do plan on attending it again. The staff and people were amazing Thank you for welcoming me. read more

Hello! 1st I want to say this church is AMAZING & we highly recommend this church! We are new to Texas from So California & when we moved here we lived in Pflugerville for 2 months. During that time we found Celebration Church in Georgetown. This location has 5pm service on Sunday so it's perfect for me... I'm not a morning person at all...lol We are used to mega churches & in Cali attended Mariners Church in OC California. **Wait hold on because I forgot to say this...We're older folks & I was raised in the RLDS church & my dad was a Minister & my husbands grandfather was an Assembly Of God Pastor so we come from the church as children but very different styles & teachings but we're Christian but also need that "FIRE" from the message** OK I feel better now saying that... lol. This church is AMAZING! The pastor(s) are all fantastic & teach from the Bible. I never had a difficult time understanding or comprehending the message. The worship team is AMAZING! The people I mean everyone from the door greeters to the pastors themselves went out of their way to make us feel welcome & that we belonged there! Love this church so much! The VIBE is so welcoming! So the bad part is we MOVED to an awesome city called Kyle & it's just to far to drive for us. There is another location in Austin that we have NOT visited yet but plan on soon. If your hesitant but looking for a church where you will fit in... CELEBRATION CHURCH is it! Just give it a try & see for yourself. If you don't like it then keep trying different ones until you find "your" church. God Bless Everyone & Thank You Celebration Church along with everyone there! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2024! Always remember GOD IS GREAT ALL THE TIME Much Love & Blessings! **Kim Covaleda & Tim Maw** read more

I and my daughters attended the Radiant Conference 2025, where Priscilla Shirer spoke. Her words were anointed and pierced our hearts with the Truth. I loved that she and the Champions opened the alters up for prayer and allowed Holy Spirit time to meet the needs of those who responded for prayer. The time spent for prayer was not stopped, as the prayer lines continued to grow, but each one was ministered to and prayed over, a rare scene in our day and age, as churches are so guided by their schedules and the clock. The speaker, Priscilla Shirer spoke after the prayer was finished and again, the anointed Word of the Lord came forth. We were encouraged, and blessed of the Lord, beyond measure. I might add, the Champion's, and the host Pastors of Celebration Church, shared their testimonies of God's grace and healing, Lori Champion gave us her new book and I'm looking forward to reading it. We were guests of theirs for the conference, but each interaction with their team was positive, helpful, and friendly. Georgetown is blessed to have the Champions and this wonderful congregation serving their community, in the love of the Lord. Thank you all. We are signed up for Radiant 2026 and can't wait! read more

Big church with small church morals. Huge complex and lots of good people. I went twice and they have a great message and I loved my time there. The holy spirit is alive in that building! God Bless! read more

So we've begun attending regularly in-person over the past 8 weeks. What we really like: We love the diverse crowd. It is evident in the band, the staff, and the pastors. People are extremely friendly and welcoming. We are very impressed with this church and will continue to attend to see if this will become our new church home. What we're still getting used to: In the past our experience has been to first volunteer service, then attend a service where the opening songs are 3 songs and 15 minutes. A pastor opens and greets for 10 minutes, the speaking pastor speaks an highly focused message for 30 minutes, the closing is 5 minutes. Grand total is one amazing hour then off to bible study for the following hour. Celebration opens with 30 long minutes of music, then the pastors seem to stretch a 30 minute message into an hour. It's not a bad thing, but it feels redundant and like it's dragging on. We love church, and this is not a complaint. It just makes for a very long morning. Overall, great place. read more

Big church - but seems warm & biblically sound! Not for all - but worth visiting. Has two services- if like morning early time read more

This is a very good church, God moves in this building don't let the "mega church" culture scare you God can work through anything.

I've found my forever church. Pastor Joe and Lori have made me feel warm and welcome in the house of our Lord. Services are filled with amazing worship, thought-provoking scripture, and a sense of community. read more

Truly blessed to consider this place as my church! I could not have asked for better people

Pompous preaching. Don't worry about money, but give us your money. "I'm not political", I just know my interpretation of the Bible gives me the right to tell others how to live. read more

Amazing church! God fearing and loving, they truly care for people and are biblically based! So thankful to call this place home.

I attended Celebration for a couple of months. I enjoyed the praise and worship. The message each Sunday was pretty good. Has tie ins to biblical standards. I appreciated being able to go in without being overwhelmed. I've found it doesn't fit for me but would suggest folks give it a try to see if it does for you. Everyone was pleasant. read more

Saddened at this church. Today Pastor Joe Champion said to his congregation that it doesn't matter how you vote but wether your right with Jesus. On the surface that sounds great and even rendered an applause but I wonder if the church came to their biblical senses? We are on the cusp of losing our biblical freedoms in this country. We forget also our nation was founded on biblical principles. 65 million children have been sacrificed through abortion because the church has been silent on politics. We will be held accountable by God one day. I wonder if Pastor Joe Champion is thinking of that? I pray celebration and other churches trapped by their 501C3 step up and step out as these days we need the voice of God, Prophecy and Understanding not tickling of the ears motivational speeches. read more

Seems like a nice church and the pastor has a good heart but it appears they really need money to pay for that multi million dollar complex they have built. This service was entertaining because they had circus people and movie clips LOL. I don't think that is the norm but it appears they are high on entertainment. Like all mega church is, it feels hard to get plugged in with anything. I like visiting there occasionally for the entertainment. read more

Incredible church! Big but loves like a small town church, sound teachings, a great space for kids, teens, young adults, young professionals, and the older generation. The Central Campus in Austin carries the same energy and values. Love Ps. Riis and his gift for teaching. read more

A very welcoming church - not attached to any denomination, so there is something for all. Lots of small groups to do life with. Amazing kids church for your little ones to feel at home while you worship. read more

Celebration Church Georgetown - The entry area - Churches Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

This "mega church" is the epitome of why Christianity and most religion in general is looked down upon in today's culture. The pastor does not care about anything other than money. A church member donated a home to him worth $985k and Pastor Joe chose to live in it, while he could have sold it and used the money for a good cause. At the same time, he preaches how everyone should give at least 10% of their income to the church, even if they are going through harsh financial struggles. That is sickening considering his exorbitant salary given to himself. The New Testament does not require Christians to tithe. I would advise anyone currently or considering attending this church to take a look at the reviews on the yellow pages website. As well as the (not recommended reviews) below on yelp. I believe that there are still churches that actually care about helping people and doing good for the community and this is not one of them. read more

Love going to Church here! If your looking to be apart of a Church that loves its city! A church that will welcome you into the family and loves, encourages and Inspires you to be all God has called you to be! Then Celebration Church this is the place for you! read more

A secular friend who lives 3 miles from Celebration Church told me about this church in 2018. We made the trip and traveled 300 miles to experience Celebration Church and although we were already Christians it just captivated our heart. We love the Church, Pastor Joe Champion and the staff that we have met during our visits to Celebration. It is our home away from home and love to visit anytime we can make the drive from McAllen to Austin. The ironic thing is my secular friend, even though I keep telling him to go, has no idea what beautiful church and message he is missing. read more

Today was our first time to attend the Central Austin location. I hate the idea of "rating a church" but wanted to say a few positive things we noted. We loved how welcoming people were and the message was solid biblical content. My favorite part was the diversity of attendees from race to socioeconomics, which is a hard find in Austin. We also loved that the size of the church was small, because we dont want to get lost in a sea of people as we have at our previous church. Overall, we are looking forward to visiting again. We are staying open minded to the lights (which I find distracting) during the worship service and also watching the sermon by TV (not ideal but hey, why not?!) read more

I looked at some of the lower star reviews, and I am at a loss on how you see this church the way you do! I have been an active member for many years. Do we have our issues? We are humans with human instinct. This is why we go to speak with God in the first place. This church is without a doubt a life giving church! You can only get out what you put in. I am not going to attack anyone's beliefs, but it would be nice if those of you that spit venom would reciprocate. One thing I know, Jesus loves both you and I just the same! I will pray for you to be blessed. read more

From the moment we walked in the doors to the sanctuary my husband and I both felt at home. After dropping our 5 younger children off to the amazing and beautiful kids place we sat down in the chairs and half way through service we both looked at each other and said- "this is our church"! We are a military family and have hopped around to many churches and never felt at home or like we belonged, until celebration. Pastor Joe and Lori are the spiritual Parents of the church and do an amazing job of bringing Jesus and the Holy Spirit into each service. We drove 50min one way every Saturday night to be with our "church family" and love it. If you are looking for a church where you belong- this is it. I hope to see you there- Anastasia read more

Celebration Church has the most incredible congregation and staff. It is biblically sound, easy to connect, & the worship is phenomenal. The kids ministry is also a major highlight. I'm thankful to have Celebration as my church! read more

Excellent in every way!! Worship is awesome and so are the messages. Kids area is top notch and so are the youth programs. Everyone is friendly and most important the gospel is preached without compromise. read more

Love it here. Great music messages...and positive energy! Good mix of pastors who are all good speakers. Not the Mega Church people think. They do focus on small groups... read more

I'm a big fan of this church. I've been here a handful of times, introduced to it through my wife's co-worker. It's a place I feel comfortable in, and inspired. I like the music. If it were a Catholic Church with the same atmosphere, I'd be here every week. Being that my family is Catholic, we attend mass elsewhere most Sundays, but every now and then, it's a fun thing to come to this church. You really do feel the spirit of Christ while at this church. read more

Moved here from Hawaii and tried out a few churches before we realized this was THE BEST! Great pastoral team and aWeSoMe worship! True Bible believing and teaching church read more

Celebration Church Georgetown - Starting the Book of Daniel... with Pastor Daniel - Churches Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

A bible church in Georgetown. Large warehouse building complex. Big stage with lots of video cameras trained on the pastor. I didn't see any crosses... weird. Strong message of tithing 10% on income as it says in the bible (though I thought the New Testament says give what you can, Pastor Joe says it better be 10%!) Lots of music at the beginning of the service, then some pretty fancy commercials on the big screens for this and that. Finally Pastor Joe gives his interpretation of some part from the bible and tries to take on this Louisiana good ole boy persona and jokes quite a bit. Lots of talk about the internet too, twitter, facebook and such. It seems like he is trying almost too hard to appeal to a young crowd. This feels like a large production but not a spiritual one. The people of the church seem real nice and it is great spending time with them but the church scares me with its commercial nature. Other members tell me about how the pastor has a $700k house, $150k salary (not including what his family members make there) and a Navigator with all the bling. I'm not impressed. It seems to me that a person of God, following Jesus' lead would live a more modest lifestyle. I know he lives far above the means of 99% of the church, the same people who make his lifestyle possible. Now there is talk that his family is spouting off about how Obama is a terrorist and all that right wing crud. I can't recommend this church though the people who attend are nice. This church has a strong mission to grow but primarily to enrich the family who runs it. This is more of a business I would say. This is a shame because they could help so many more people if they didn't keep most of the tithe money for themselves (after covering overhead expenses). If you want to get closer to Jesus find a smaller church that is pastored by people with a true Jesus focus. read more

Celebration Church Georgetown - Pastor Joe - Churches Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

I will admit when my husband and I first went here we were a little timid because it was so huge! But as soon as we walked in the doors we were greeted several times and the ushers helped us find great seats. Then the praise and worship began and I could just feel the presence of God light up the room with beautiful lights and warmth. I knew in my spirit that this was my next church home and it was further confirmed when Pastor Joe began his sermon. The only way to preach is straight from the word of God! I Love That! My husband and I have now been going here for 4 months and have started attending their super fun Summer Saturdays and their wednesday night marriage small goup and we just keep on meeting so many wonderful people! I am so glad that we are a part of this church and this ministry. read more

After 10 yrs of growing with this church I come for the the people, the word, and Pastor Joe. I avoid the politics but love what they do for our area and how they speak the truth. There is love here! read more

This is the best church ever! You will always feel like family when you are here.
