The Tim Tebow Foundation has a great passion for people with special needs, and in 2014 they launched “Night to Shine.” The vision was simple… work with churches around the country to provide an incredible prom night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs, ages 16 and older.

This past February, 44 churches and 15,000 volunteers came together on one night, celebrating 7,000 honored guests with special needs. This unforgettable prom night experience changed Valentine’s Day weekend from simply a celebration of love, to a celebration of God’s love, people with special needs and the value of life. This year they will continue expanding this ministry into a worldwide movement that allows people with special needs to shine, churches to shine, volunteers to shine, and most importantly, Christ to shine.

We are thrilled that we get to be a part of this movement and offer a Night To Shine here at Christ Community Church! From watching the promotional videos to hearing Tim Tebow speak about this wonderful event, we gained just as much excitement to want this kind of event to happen here in Lake Charles, LA. 

Sunday Night Live is a monthly event that unites the Church of God–Anderson, IN churches in Lake Charles. We come together for fellowship, worship, and (sometimes) just to hang out!

See You At The Pole is a well-known event that happens across the nation in public and private schools. Students show up early on a Wednesday morning and circle around the flagpole to pray for the school, students, teachers and our nation. 

Transformed Student Ministries here at Christ Community Church gathers with other churches in the area and we host a SYATP Rally at Gateway Church of God in Moss Bluff. We will have an actual worship service together and then have one of the Youth Pastors or a special guest come and speak to the students. 

Not only are we praying for the nations school system and as a whole, but we pray for Lake Charles specifically and building unity between churches so that we can unite together in Spiritual Warfare. So that we're all focused on God and bringing His kingdom to Lake Charles and to the earth. 

If you haven't been a part of this event, you need to mark it on your calendars and come out. We'd love to have you and worship alongside you!

Slop Fest is such a fun, amazing and wet event! This is our version of "water wars" and we get together here at the church and just get soaked. We will have events such as Soggy Kickball, Slip-N-Slide Bowling, Slippery Duck-Duck-Goose, and a ton of other games! This is a great event to invite your friends to! 

Our Children's Ministry will be meeting in Moss Lake for a fun day and so we've partnered with them to give our Teens something to do as well! So drop the teens off here at the church and take your children down to Moss Lake. For more information about the Moss Lake Kid's day, contact Pastor Steve Hardesty at: stevehardesty@ccclc.info or call the church at 478-8228.

Talk to any of our Teens about Slop Fest and they'll tell you it's a blast and that all Teens should make their way over to the church for Slop Fest!

Transformed Student Ministries here at Christ Community Church as well as Gateway Church of God and Westlake Church of God get together each month, throughout the school year, for an event called Sunday Night Live. 

Sunday Night Live is an evening retreat that started with these three churches. SNL is a monthly event for our students to look forward to. Something that draws them into the youth group and ultimately into the church. It's easy to let a few months fade by and not have an event scheduled and so SNL is there to make sure that our students are interacting together once a month in a bigger venue than our youth rooms. 

There is music, speaking, games, and fellowship that take place. Sometimes it is switched up and we'll do something different (i.e. for Christmas we did a huge white elephant gift exchange). We just want our students to know that there are more than the students in our youth groups that are fighting the same battles. They may even go to your schools and you didn't know they went to church or believed in God. It's an eye-opening experience to see student's say, "Woah! I didn't know you went to church there!" It's great because they now know they've got a buddy to fight alongside with. 

We also switch things up by hosting SNL at different churches each month. So make sure you're in tune with where it's going to be because we don't want you to miss out!
