At Celebration we believe in Christ first, excellence in all things, people are a big deal, everyone will grow, and we are all family.
Celebration Italia
We know we are part of a bigger plan that God began writing through our Pastors Joe & Lori Champion in Austin, Texas. Pastors John and Marianna, from families of believers born again for three generations, have served the Kingdom in Italy with simplicity for most of their lives, while keeping in their hearts the dream that one day God would use them too. to help change the city and the nation. When the meeting with the Champion family took place, they discovered that they shared their same vision, passion and the same desire to see life-bearing churches grow in Italy and throughout Europe. Shortly thereafter, from that meeting in 2017, Celebration Church in Italy was born!
Our Beliefs
How we view God, Jesus, the Bible, and many significant aspects of our faith.
Celebration is firmly rooted in the Bible and use it as the foundational guide
our decisions as a church.
Our Story
In 2000, our Pastors prayed about where to plant a life-giving church. The Lord spoke to each of them, “It is Austin”.
We continue to celebrate all that God has done and the lives that have been impacted.
