Impact
Flint Hills Praisefest selects ministry partners every two years. The ministry partners are often local non-profit organizations that share similar heart and values to Praisefest - Community, Worship, and Generosity. The Praisefest board receives many nominations and selects ministry partners that are lifted up over the course of the two years through increased exposure, involvement in the worship at the annual festival, and generosity of the community and partners of Praisefest. Over the course of the past 12 years, over $120,000 have been raised and donated directly to the ministry partners. We look forward to lifting up our ministry partners for 2024 and 2025!

Celebrate Recovery
Celebrate Recovery, University Christian Church Chapel, Every Tuesday night at 7pm.
None of us are perfect, and as much as we all differ, we share one thing in common: hurt. No one has the ability, nor should they attempt to face their hurts on their own
Celebrate Recovery is a place to find God’s healing power through the Beatitudes and Biblical principles while learning to develop a stronger personal relationship with Jesus.
Celebrate Recovery (CR) is a biblically balanced approach to finding community and freedom from issues that are controlling your life. When we make a commitment to recovering our relationship with Jesus we find in the process our relationships with ourselves, other people and other things improve. CR is a place to get honest about the hurt, the negative ways we may see ourselves, God and others. As we keep coming back, we come to accept that some of the habits we may have developed to escape our pain have caused destruction in our life and those close to us.
At Celebrate Recovery you can find freedom, whatever the hurt, in a safe, encouraging environment, learn healthy biblical truths, and create new life-giving habits while building a faith-based community for accountability and support. James 5:16 says, “Admit your faults to one another and pray for each other so that you may be healed” (TLB). It doesn’t say “so that you may be forgiven” but so that you may be healed. Forgiveness comes from God. Healing comes in relationships. Join more than 7 million people across the globe who now walk in freedom through the life changing power of Jesus Christ after learning to walk through the 8 principles of Celebrate Recovery.
