How Celebration For Life Began
Central Coast Celebration for Life (CCCFL) began from a desire to support women and families facing the pressures and promises of abortion. Local volunteers, Knights of Columbus Council #5300, and Options United united their shared pro-life mission to launch Celebration for Life in 2026.The Central Coast Pro-Life Committee was formed soon after.
Celebration for Life is a three-day weekend of prayer, fellowship, and community events in Santa Barbara, with the main events taking place on Saturday, including the Walk & Prayer and celebration at Chase Palm Park. Additional gatherings are held on Friday and Sunday.
Mission
Central Coast Celebration for Life's mission is to build unity and raise funds for all local pro-life organizations that protect unborn human life, mothers, and families.
Families faithful to God's calling are the foundation of our society. Pro-life organizations are on the frontlines defending the most vulnerable and innocent among us. Throughout the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, God will us to be His people. Genesis 17:7, 2 Corinthians 6, 1 Peter 2:9, Revelation 21:3.
We launched this celebration because we feel we can do more and that we must "consider how to rouse one another to love and do good works" Hebrews 10:24
