A Note from Pastor Chris to the Church Family

Dear CCC Family,

It’s a joy and an honor to step into this new chapter with you as your lead pastor. From the first time I visited CCC, I could sense a love for God and a genuine heart for people. Jesus Himself said this sums up the entirety of Scripture: Love God and love people. I look forward to continuing in that spirit and seeing what God will do in our midst.

As we begin this journey, my prayer is that CCC will remain a place where people encounter Christ, find community, and are equipped to serve both here and around the world. Let’s walk into this next season expectant for what God will accomplish through His Spirit and His people.

I can’t wait to meet you, hear your stories, and discover how we can grow together in Christ.

With gratitude and anticipation,

Pastor Chris and Jenny Milbrath

This week's Scripture –
 
"Whoever wishes to be My follower must deny his very self, take up the cross each day, and follow in My steps." – Luke 9:23, NIV

 
Ponder –
 
“The cross is not the suffering tied to natural existence, but the suffering tied to being Christians. The cross is never simply a matter of suffering, but a matter of suffering and rejection for the sake of Jesus Christ, not for the sake of some other arbitrary behavior or confession.”― Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945)
