Celebration Church International (CCI), a vibrant and mission-driven Christian denomination, is set to commemorate its 13th anniversary with a grand unified service bringing together all its Lagos campuses. Themed under the banner of #EndlessLifeFestival, the event promises an uplifting experience of worship, reflection, and communal joy, highlighting God’s faithfulness over the past decade-plus. Scheduled for Sunday, November 9, 2025, at the National Theatre (now known as the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and Creative Arts) in Iganmu, Surulere, Lagos, the anniversary will feature two special services at 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM.
Founded in 2012 by visionary leader Apostle Emmanuel Iren, CCI has grown from humble beginnings into an international powerhouse with over 30 campuses spanning Nigeria, North America, and the United Kingdom. As an orthodox and charismatic ministry, CCI emphasizes dynamic teaching of the gospel, effective evangelism, disciple-making, and empowering believers to live purposefully in Christ. The church’s core motto—”In Christ, for Christ, with joy”—encapsulates its commitment to fostering spiritual growth and community impact. Over the years, CCI has touched countless lives through its teachings, outreach programs, and global branches, inspiring members to embrace eternal life in Jesus and deploy as mature ministers of the faith.
This milestone anniversary, dubbed #CCIAt13, draws from Philippians 1:6: “Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Attendees can expect a powerful lineup of activities, including high-energy praise and worship sessions, heartfelt prayers, and insightful messages from Apostle Iren and other leaders. The event will showcase the church’s diverse community, with participants encouraged to come in beautiful outfits ready to dance and celebrate God’s goodness. As a one-big-family gathering, it will unite worshippers from campuses like Lagos Island, Ikeja, Ago, and beyond, fostering a sense of shared purpose and gratitude.
Apostle Emmanuel Iren, the lead pastor and founder, expressed excitement about the occasion: “Thirteen years of God’s unwavering faithfulness calls for exuberant celebration. This is not just an anniversary; it’s a testament to the endless life we have in Christ, and we’re inviting everyone to join us in this joyous festival.” With a passion for the Word and missions, Apostle Iren has steered CCI to become a beacon of hope, offering resources like online sermons, youth programs, and community initiatives that address spiritual and social needs.
