CHRISTMAS DESSERT THEATER 2023

One of the most exciting outreach opportunities - specifically involving the Worship Arts team at CLCC - is our annual Christmas Dessert Theater.
Yes, on the outside it is a high-quality, musical stage production, but it's impact goes much deeper. CDT provides us the privilege of telling a story
of redemption and the message of the Gospel in a way that many can identify with and begin to understand on a personal level.
And what better time to share that story than during the Christmas season?


For the Cast and Crew it's all the fun, work and camaraderie of musical theater with the added benefit of knowing that God will use the message of this story in an eternal way in the lives of those who attend. 


For our Guests, they get to enjoy a well-done, Broadway-style musical theater presentation and their choice of incredible Christmas desserts. But more than that, it is a non-threatening way to be introduced to Canyon Lake Community Church and the message of biblical redemption - the true meaning of Christmas.


For our Church this is primarily a great opportunity to invite our family and friends to an incredible event and begin a comfortable spiritual conversation with them over some tasty desserts - a wonderful way at Christmas to continue to be on mission with the Gospel. CDT also provides our church an opportunity to serve. An undertaking of this magnitude requires over 200 people to volunteer - as part of the cast, crew, construction crew, costumes, food prep, wait staff, parking lot attendants, etc. There is a place for everyone to participate!
