Vision, Mission and Values 〰️
Transforming Lives Through The Truth, Love & Action of Jesus
TRUTH
We unite around the essential truths of the gospel and allow liberty concerning Biblical interpretations related to secondary matters. We value all truth; both the truth found in Scripture and the truth we can discover through God’s creation. We will avoid pointless controversies, silly myths, and conspiracy theories.
LOVE
Jesus modeled true love for us and taught us how to love one another. We both welcome people from all walks of life while also calling everyone to the only path of eternal life, a path of faith and obedience to Jesus.
ACTION
Jesus commanded His disciples to GO! We believe that a life of faith in Jesus is a life of action. We put our faith into action as individuals where we live, work, and play, as a church through outreach and community partnerships, and by extending our gifts, prayers, and financial resources to other parts of the world through foreign missions.
Our Leadership Structure
Our church is guided by an Elder Board responsible for ensuring the spiritual health of the congregation and holding the Lead Pastor accountable for fulfilling the vision and ministries of Christ Community Church.
The daily ministry and operations at CCC are managed by a team of paid staff who lead a committed group of volunteers, making everything possible.
