Did you know? We have three ways you can show your connection and relationship with us. All are welcome to join us for worship, Bible study, and to participate in our ministries, regardless of background. Membership is a decision to intentionally make this church your spiritual home and about commitment to a faith community. It is a visible and public statement of how we are the church together. We have three categories to represent the variety of ways you can formally connect with us: - Membership is for those who want to claim CCC as their primary spiritual community.

- Associate Membership is for those who claim CCC as their “home away from home” church. Both Members and Associate Members can vote in our membership meetings. - Friends of the CCC is for those do not wish to become a formal “member”, but who express sympathy with its purposes and programs and support the life of the church. As a member, your covenant with us is to faithfully engage the work of Jesus Christ through this church by your prayers, your presence, your gifts, your service, and your witness. Contact the church office if you are interested in learning more!
