Celebration Church 20th Anniversary Concert

In July 2005, author and pastor Michael Carter received a vision from God to start a unique church in Jamaica, and he responded by preaching to a handful of people under a mango tree. It is there and then that the Celebration Church was born.

Fast-forward to 2025, and the Celebration Church is now gearing up to commemorate its 20th anniversary with a major gospel concert. This will be a joyful expression of gratitude for all God has done and continues to do.

The event will be held on Saturday, July 12th, at The Celebration Church (Portmore Mall, Jamaica). There will be musical ministrations by Joan Flemmings, Johnmark Wiggan, Prince Saj, Audia Spencer-Brown, Minister D. Brown, and Genesis Praise Squad.
