Crescent Lake Christian Center

What Crescent Lake Christian Center does

Crescent Lake Christian Center (CLCC) is an independent, nonprofit Christian church headquartered at 1250 Saint Louis Avenue in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. It operates a single-site ministry serving the surrounding community through in-person worship services (Sunday School at 9:00 a.m., Sunday Morning Service at 10:00 a.m., and Wednesday Night Service at 7:00 p.m.) and online streaming of the Sunday morning service via Facebook and YouTube. Its portfolio is organized around age-segmented ministry programs: Children's Ministry (ages 0-12), Students Ministry (ages 12-18), The Bridge young adult group (ages 18-26), Adults Ministry, Men's Ministry (monthly fellowship), and the recently launched New FREEDOM recovery program for individuals struggling with addiction.

The organization's core technology is intentionally lightweight: consumer-grade streaming through Facebook and YouTube for remote worship delivery, and the Church Center SaaS platform for online giving. No proprietary software, mobile applications, or API integrations are disclosed. Administrative and ministry operations are supported by a five-person team consisting of a Lead Pastor (David Boudreaux, installed November 2021), a founding-era Pastor (Mike Boudreaux, Senior Pastor from 1998), a full-time Associate Pastor/Youth Pastor (Ethan Rosenboom, since December 2023), an Office Administrator, and an elder board.

Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary tithes and offerings from congregation members, collected during in-person services, by mail, via online banking bill pay, and through the Church Center online giving platform. No fee-based programs, products, or services are sold, and financial figures are not publicly disclosed. Customer segmentation is horizontal across age and life-stage cohorts rather than commercial verticals, and distribution is local with modest digital extension through social streaming.

Broad incumbents

• Watermark Church (Plano, TX): Large non-denominational Bible-teaching church in the Dallas–Fort Worth area with extensive recovery and community ministry programs. Comparable to Crescent Lake in its multi-generational approach and emphasis on addiction recovery alongside traditional worship.
• Life.Church: Multisite, non-denominational Christian church recognized for pioneering free digital tools (Church Online Platform, the Bible App) and online streaming. Comparable to Crescent Lake as a Christian congregation that emphasizes digital reach, online giving, and family ministry — operating at a much larger scale.
• Elevation Church: Multisite non-denominational Christian church led by Steven Furtick with strong online streaming and youth/family ministry. Comparable to Crescent Lake as a contemporary Christian congregation investing in digital reach and next-generation ministry.
• Saddleback Church: Large non-denominational Southern California church with multiple campuses, age-specific ministries (children, students, young adults), and a flagship recovery program (Celebrate Recovery) modeled after AA. Directly comparable to Crescent Lake on ministry breadth and addiction recovery focus, but operates at national scale.
• North Point Church (North Point Ministries): One of the largest non-denominational Christian churches in the U.S., headquartered in metro Atlanta but operating multiple campuses with strong online streaming. Comparable to Crescent Lake as a Christian congregation offering full-life-stage ministry programs, though at vastly greater scale and reach.

Others

• Church Center (by Ministry Brands): Software-as-a-service giving and engagement platform used by Crescent Lake to power online donations and member engagement. Comparable as the technology infrastructure enabling Crescent Lake's online giving channel.
• Volunteers of America (faith-rooted nonprofit): Faith-rooted nonprofit providing community services including addiction recovery, housing, and family support. Comparable to Crescent Lake's New Freedom recovery program and community outreach posture, though operates as a multi-state social services organization rather than a single congregation.

Direct peers

• Reserve Christian Center: Non-denominational Christian church in Reserve, Louisiana where Mike Boudreaux previously served as Associate Pastor. Directly comparable to Crescent Lake as a similarly-sized Christian congregation with age-based ministry programs; closely linked by historical pastoral lineage.

Regional players

• Church of the Nazarene (Excelsior Springs congregation): Other Protestant Christian congregations serving the Excelsior Springs/Kansas City region. Comparable to Crescent Lake as same-geography, same-faith, similar-sized local churches competing for the same congregants and donor base.
