Dear Guests,

           The Bible invites all of us to welcome one another to the glory of God. One of our roles as the church is to welcome everyone to come and discover who God is and how God  can be a apart of our busy lives. Community Church is the kind of church that takes this biblical word seriously. We want to welcome you to come and discover God for your life.

         We invite you to come to one of our services described on the Website and allow us to help you find God for yourself. We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into the life of our church.  

Grace and peace

Brad Phillips, Senior Pastor

From the Associate Pastor ...

 

This weather has been unpredictable hasn’t it? We often want to know what to expect so we may plan ahead. Will it be sunny or rainy? Windy or mild? Do I wear a t-shirt and shorts or long sleeves and slacks? Sunglasses or raincoat? 

In my life, I sometimes wish I could predict my future. I desire to know what will happen if I choose one option over another. I find comfort in knowing that whatever happens, my God is “the same yesterday, today and forevermore.” I can have my quiet mood, my lively mood and any in between. But our Creator is always available to listen and always speaks through the scriptures.

Perhaps your life is routine and you desire some freshness – ask God to do that for you. Or maybe there’s too much volatility to suit your temperament – ask God to speak peace to the situation. Establishing friendships within a community of faith, our eyes are opened as to how similar we are. We may see a flaw in another, but when we look within we know that we too are flawed. But we’re stronger together than we are apart. 

Whatever place on the path you find yourself, give thanks. We all go through seasons of our life.  Hold steadfast to the promises of God.
