Local Missions

Why do We participate in local missions?

"My favorite local mission is our visitation to the nursing home. To see the eyes of the residents just light up when the kids come in and give them cards and sing songs to them, it is incredibly uplifting. I have often thought our mission team was going to lift up the hearts of the residents, often what happens is our own hearts are uplifted and we are blessed by God."

-Vince

"I realize that it is not about me. Doing local missions is a way of showing Christ's love to others, but it's also a way in which I can see my own troubles fade as the needs of others come into focus."

Good News Clinic is a clinic that operates in Hall County, georgia to provide free healthcare to those who couldn't afford it otherwise. "Helping at the Good News Clinic gives me the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Christ right here at home. Although I have no medical training, all God wanted from me was a willing spirit."

-ANGIE

Faith in action

Faith in Action Sundays give Celebration an opportunity to go outside the church walls and be the hands and feet of Christ to our community. Past ministry opportunities have included visiting a local nursing home, Gwinnett children's shelter, collecting for the local food bank, serving the homeless in Atlanta and Gainesville, conducting a free yard sale and home improvement and maintenance projects for families in need.

Good News @ Noon & Good news clinic

Celebration serves families and homeless men in the Gainesville area by providing meals on the second Tuesday evening of every month at the Good News at Noon ministry. Good News at Noon provides food, shelter and education to homeless men in crisis while seeking to share with them the good news of Jesus Christ. Additionally, many individuals serve at Good News Clinics, a facility that offers support and free medical care and dental care to the indigent, homeless and low-income people in Hall County who have no healthcare insurance and cannot afford medical care.
