SUNDAY SCHOOL MINISTRY:   Community Church has a dynamic Sunday School ministry that ministers to everyone, from infants through adults.  Classes are led by capable members of the church, using Biblically-based materials (Gospel Light Curriculum is used for the children and youth divisions), and provide care and fellowship to all who attend.  We have ten adult classes that provide for a wide range of age and interests.  These classes meet regularly every Sunday morning at  9:30 AM .  (Please refer to the class listing on this site for the names of each class, the age-range, and room location.)   

MUSIC AND WORSHIP MINISTRY:
     "Let us come before Him with thanksgiving and extol Him with music and song." ... Psalm 95:2

Worship...the celebration of God and how we declare His worth. It doesn't just happen! We come with expectation, seeking the Lord (Jeremiah 29:13); we come with personal preparation, giving the Lord the glory due His Name (Psalm 29:2); we come with participation, involved with songs of praise, prayer, confession and instruction from the Word of God (Matthew 18:20); and we come with anticipation, that we respond in spirit and truth (John 4:23-24).

At CCPL we are blessed by God with many whom He has given gifts and talents to use and share with the body of Christ, in our adoration, praise. Under the direction of Pastor Mark Ohmit, our adult choir, praise team, praise band, and solo ministry  provide ample opportunities for involvement in worship ministry.

You are invited to become a vital part of our Worship Ministry Team, whether in highly visible roles or essential service "behind-the-scenes", for "It is the Lord Christ you are serving." (Colossians 3:24)

HOME BIBLE FELLOWSHIPS: These neighborhood groups meet weekly in a host home to participate in a Bible-based discussion, prayer, and fellowship around dessert.  Our Home Bible Fellowships give people a chance to get to know others better and experience the caring and support that only a small group can provide. Each group is led by a Discussion Facilitator.  They meet for on Monday or Thursday nights, beginning in the Fall and ending in Spring.  Each group breaks during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter weeks, but celebrates with fellowship suppers periodically through the year.

VISITATION: There is an active visitation program at Community Church which involves the staff and other key leaders.  Member and non-members alike receive regular visits while hospitalized, in nursing facilities, and in their homes.  Widows, widowers, and homebound people are also sent cards and gifts periodically by the Deaconesses. Guests and newer attendees are contacted by phone and letter. Sometimes visits are coordinated so that several people can meet together for fellowship in someone’s home.

PRAYER MINISTRY: We consider prayer a priority and encourage all groups, such as Home Bible Fellowships, Bible Study Groups, Adult Bible Fellowships, etc. to include prayer as a part of their time together. There is a ladies prayer group that meets weekly to pray for the needs of the church. Also, the staff prays each week for the needs of the congregation and prays for individuals as needed.

OUTREACH MINISTRY: The entire church family is encouraged to reach out in Christian love to others, especially those who are unchurched. Outreach activities are planned in order to provide a venue for this ministry. Some of those include:  Vacation Bible School, sporting events, picnics, etc.  Many are also involved in projects like:  Collecting items needed for the Pregnancy Solutions & Services nearby, the Haven of Rest Ministries, Operation Shoebox (Samaritan’s Purse), etc.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL :   Community Church has an exciting and well-attended V.B.S. during the summer each year.  Children from pre-school through Junior High are divided into age-mixed groups and go to various stations to learn the gospel and Scriptural principles.  Interesting, fun-filled activities reinforce the truths presented, such as:  puppets, crafts, lively singing, games, drama, and videos.

COMMUNITY CHRISTIAN PRE-SCHOOL: The church sponsors a quality pre-school on the campus that is aptly administrated by Mrs. Debbie Allen.  She has a dedicated staff of Christian teachers who strive to teach the children in practical preparation for formal academic classes.
