New Temporary Home For North Bend Celebration Center

This is the new home for Celebration Center North Bend.  We're now located at the Pony Village Shopping Center and they've given, yes for FREE, 8000 sq ft of space which will seat 300 for as long as we need it.  This is a picture of the outside entrance, it also has a mall entrance of course.

A church in town loaned us 115 chairs, we brought in another 20 or so and the mall set up the stage and loaned us tables.  Another man loaned us a PA system and a beautiful set of drums were given to us.  A daycare in the Mall let us use their facility for our children's program, again for as long as we need it.  We had enough to set up for church on Sunday.   It was great!

Worship Team ready to go

We had a full house.  We'll be looking for more chairs this week and painting over the beautiful ship on the wall.  It was very exciting.  We're all looking forward to the bigger and better that God has in store for us.  This was a devastating thing to have happen, but it's time to look ahead.  We don't believe God burned down the church, not at all!  Satan did this and he's going to pay.  We're living in expectation and anticipation...what will God do next!

God is stripping away everything!

Hi Guys, Natasha reminded me of the prophetic word God gave me for conference it was very vivid at the time.

Basically God was going to strip away everything we depended on until we were just left with him.

He spoke to me very clearly about financial system, banks, finance companies, weather, tsunamis, floods, drought, fires, mud slides, earthquakes, volcano’s, everything we though would remain the same was coming down and we could not depend on anything but God,

Human relationships, buildings, pulpits, congregation,

There are many things around us that can give us a false sense of security, but God is our security

Do you think God may give or take till we break?

Till we come to the place of total dependence and trust in Him again, that place of revival!

Consider the things we may have lost over the last year

Consider the things we may have gained “this may very well be spiritual gain not material”

What I do believe is God is taking us all to a new place in Him.

The Lord gives, the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord

This may be a deep moment, bless Ya heaps Murray

North Bend Oregon Church Fire

Fire started before 2a.m. Sunday Morning

Hello friends

This is the first time posting to this site, and not with great news either.  We had a devastating fire last night which burned our sanctuary to the ground.  

Our local firefighters were able to save the "White House" where our daycare and church office are housed.  But, our church is no longer.  

Pretty horrible feeling to literally watch all your memories, work and money spent go up in flames, but no one was hurt.  At the end of the day, you realize they are just things, replaceable things.  

Fought the fire well past daybreak

After the initial shock, Ron and the guys were already casting new vision.  Our congregation gathered together this morning, just hours after our church home was destroyed, and we worshiped together and heard a great word from Ron on staying the course, no matter what.  This will bring even more unity to our already very united family.  

We will post all of our pictures on our Plaza Site.  (http://celebrationcenter.onthecity.org/plaza)

We appreciate your prayers and concern.  Wait and see, we'll come out of this tragedy stronger and more determined to fulfill God's purpose and plans for us.  

It's going to be an exciting ride!

Total loss of Auditorium and New Dining Room

Ladder Truck

They did a great job of saving the pre-school

Murray and Nancy meet with Celebration Centre Crestline leaders

Psalm 133 came to mind when we met with Chuck and Marys leadership team.  '...it is like the precious oil upon the head, running down on the beard of Aaron....'

 Murray...using a whiteboard, showed leaders the multiplication effect of building the Church through Cell.   He exhorted leaders to step up, continue to reach new people and build the Church through relationship. 

 We have so much fun with our pastors Chuck and Mary Cuccia.  What an awesome couple, called of God and hungry to breakthrough for their Church.  Continue to pray God will give them wisdom and revelation to move things forward with great faith and confidence.  They are destined to success!

Hello Brothers and Sisters--
This one is for you Tania and Nancy-- I love You Both!!!

Here in the beautiful mountians of Southern California is a small town called Crestline. In this charming town filled with Denmonic activity is a powerful little church called Celebration Centre' Crestline. We have been
actively trying to fulfill the VISION---Effective in gathering Souls! Over the 4th of July weekend, we hosted two Christian bands from Northern California area, about 8 hours away. One was a country gospel and the other was Blues band. They were awesome and very powerful evangelists. We had a Christian bike club join our efforts for which one of the members has recently joind the church. Unfortunately we had no confirmed salvations, but we did add three new families to the church. We are praying more to come!!

Pray for us. Like our Father Murray we are going through some hassels with the powers that be and trying to get a new loan for our church building. The forces are strong, but "Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world."

Chuck and I recently had the HONOR of having Peter and Tracy from Wakworth Celebration Centre' and Mike and Allison from KeriKeri Celebration Centre'( Spelling????) We had a lovely visit with both couples and felt a powerful connection in the Spirit!!! Father Murray is right!!! CONNECT- CONNECT- CONNECT!!! We have found that this is very important. We have now had almost all the Celebration Centre' pastors in our home. Come on Guys and Gals-- Give us a try!!! We would love to have you.  We had the presence of God and some wonderful uplifting in the Spirit. We are connect to an awesome movement and some wonderful brothers and sisters in the Lord, all endeavoring to fulfill the Great Commission---What an awesome priveledge!!! Thank you for inviting us Murray and Nancy!!! We are grafted in!!!!Yeah!!!

Love to All-- And may the Peace of God be with each of you.

P.S. Pictures of outreach to follow---When I figure that part out???!!!

A Little Prince among Angels

Mikaera's a little Angel that flew to earth,


his wings disappear at the time of his birth.

One look in his eyes and we're never the same,

He's a part of us now and that part has a name.

That part is our heart and a bond that won't sever,

our Babies are Angels, we love them forever.
