Spiritual Emphasis Weekend is a time when the community of Christian Celebration Center hosts a speaker for additional services in a weekend to encourage and edify the body. To encourage family participation, childcare is provided for birth through kindergarten. ?Before Spiritual Emphasis Weekend, I struggled with what the Lord had planned for me. The speaker during the January Spiritual Emphasis Weekend used an analogy that really helped me see the truth of God,? said Jason Vititoe, an attendee of Christian Celebration Center who works at Dow Chemical Company.
