Good Friday: Path to the Empty Tomb: Before or after the Apr. 15th Good Friday service (starting at 6:30pm) take a few minutes to prayerfully walk through the final moments of Jesus’ time on Earth using this artistic reflection created by CCC elementary students, located in the Gathering Space.
Good Friday service: At 7:30pm on Apr. 15th, gather with our church family to reflect on the deep love of Jesus and the sacrifice that he made for us. If weather permits, we will end the service by gathering outside around the cross.
Could You Help? Our early childhood rooms are packing full on Sunday mornings, and Mindy Flick would like to open up another room to relieve some of the pressure on our volunteers. Would you be willing to serve once a month to help make this possible? Please contact Mindy.
Encourage Nursing Home Residents: Starting on Thursday, April 21st (4pm), we will once again be able to be with the residents at Garden Villa Nursing Home for a monthly time of singing and ministry.

Energy Saving Task of the Month: Our April task is to eat less meat! Did you know that reducing the amount of meat you eat can have the same impact as not driving your car for 6 months? WOW! AND you can save up to $600 annually (depending on the size of your family) AND the doctors say it’s more heart healthy! It’s a win-win for you and creation! Please read the April action sheet to learn more and get some tips on alternatives to meat.
