LOVING GOD
Which finds expression through exuberant, heart-felt worship. Weekly Sunday Services and cell meetings include a variety of ways to connect with God, including praise-filled singing, prayer and deeper worship. If you arrive at 9:20 on Sunday mornings, you will find people meeting together for a half hour of prayer. This is a great time to get your heart in tune with God and connect with others who have chosen prayer as a core value in their lives. The Bible says worship should be in Spirit and Truth. We follow this Biblical pattern by welcoming the demonstration of God’s Spirit in our worship together. Whether lifting our hands or clapping as we sing, we pattern our worship after those expressions found in the Bible. God's love reaches back and people find direction through a surrender to His plans for their lives. Weekly messages are also aimed to bring people to a closer relationship with God and His ways.

LOVING EACH OTHER
Cell Groups are the heartbeat of CCC, providing a weekly means for growth and connection. These groups meet in homes throughout the city, focusing on relationship with God and others. Weekly topics support the growth of each believer and provide a welcoming atmosphere for friends outside the church. Jesus told us to make disciples, and cell groups prompt us to fulfill His desire. They challenge us to teach, pray, listen, love, train, and be accountable to others. Cell Leaders are the pastoral arm of this church, developing community with a heart to reach out and include others. People need a safe place to grow and flourish, so love undergirds all we do. Openness and intimacy develop over time as people join a group and discover a great opportunity to develop trust in each other. We are a multi-generational church. The coming together of generations is made possible by a commitment to relate with understanding and break down walls through love and acceptance. Read the Full Story

OUR CITY Is a unique combination of people groups, many of whom are located within a short distance of our church property. The unique challenge of merging cultures and languages is a calling God has put before us. We are following His example of love and good deeds. We reach out to the needs of our community through various means, whether it be an individual volunteering at a neighborhood school, groups picking up trash, or churches partnering together for community events--demonstrating the love and message of the Gospel and meeting felt-needs. We want our community to know they are invited to join us so we deliver invitations to their doors once a month. Our pastors join other city pastors in times of prayer and partnership to see God’s Kingdom come to our City. Read the Full Story

LOVING THE NATIONS
Even though the nations are greatly represented in our own community, we want to fulfill Jesus’ Great Comm ission and go into the whole earth, preaching the Gospel and making disciples. Therefore, foreign missions plays a significant role in our giving and church life. We support pastors and churches reaching nations around the globe, including Nigeria, Brazil, India, Jerusalem and Liberia. Periodic short-term teams and the ongoing support of trusted ministries is a constant focus of our prayer, giving and relationship. Also, we have opened our own property to churches of other language groups. Nueva Generacion en Cristo and the Vietnamese Christian Community Church meet every Sunday afternoon. We are partnering with them to create a greater community impact for God. Read the Full Story
