I've been going to Celebration for over 2 years. The services are powerful and the church appears to be under great leadership. However, I am concerned at the cash flow coming into the church. After a little bit of research, I found a bond package online that really was ok until I read about a lease on the pastor's 2006 Lincoln. As members, we are paying for that vehicle, in addition to his salary which exceeds 150,000. Is it wrong for me to question this? I'm just cautious where my tithes to a church go. After seeing this, I am a bit dissapointed.\r
