Sunday Morning Services

Sunday service times is normally held at 9:00am, followed by a time of refreshment and fellowship provided on the Patio beside the fountain. Our worship style seeks to blend both traditional and contemporary each week. Holy Communion
CPC Morning Service
is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month. We celebrate Holy Communion with formal and informal liturgies, and with pew service (trays and cups with the congregation seated), and with intinction (walking up to the bread and the chalice). We mix and match these liturgies and forms of the Eucharist depending on the flow of the service, as we are led by the Spirit.
Lay readers are usually put to use in our worship services. Our worship bulletins are visitor-friendly. God's Word is proclaimed with boldness and evangelical authority. Opportunities are often provided for people to come forward and accept Christ as their Savior and Lord. A budding healing ministry has begun. We worship God because He deserves to be worshipped! What is the chief end of man? To glorify God and enjoy Him forever!


Taize Service
Join us when we worship Jesus following the form of the TAIZE community
Taize (pronounced ta-zay) is an ecumenical community of brothers located in a village in eastern France. Founded by Brother Roger in the 1940's as a monastic community committed to service and worship, it provided sanctuary for refugees fleeing the persecutions of World War II, as well as more recent conflicts.

Worship at the Taize community is deeply contemplative, which is why we have not seen this form of worship in many American churches with their emphasis upon the spoken word. A Taize service is marked by simple liturgies drawing heavily on the rhythms of scripture reading, silence, brief prayers, and a form of meditative singing that has become the hallmark of its worship. Composed in a wide array of languages as begets the community's ecumenical and international character, the songs consist of brief biblical phrases sung to simple melodies and repeated over and over again in the manner of chant, or sung prayer.

The meditative singing is a way of listening to God. Through the effect of the sung chants, little by little, the person finds all inner unity in God. This kind of worship seeks to nourish us on a deep, non-verbal basis. Taize services are held on an irregular basis and notice that we are having one will appear in the church bulletins.
