About Us
Christ Community Presbyterian Church exists to exalt Christ through joyfully reverent worship, to grow in Christ through Holy Spirit-dependent faith, and to share Christ through word and deed in our community and the world.
What We Believe
The God of Scripture
We believe in the triune God – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – revealed in his inerrant and infallible word, which is our only rule of faith and life.
Bound for Glory
We believe in the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the dead, and the life everlasting. While we enjoy some of the benefits of our salvation in Jesus now, we look forward to the resurrection of the dead, and the life everlasting.
Saved through Jesus
We believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone who died for our sin and rose again for our salvation.
Confessional, Reformed & Presbyterian
We are a reformed and confessional church that holds to the Westminster Standards (The Confession of Faith and the Larger and Shorter Catechism), and we are a Presbyterian Church, and a member congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA).
The People of God
We believe that Christ has made a people for himself; a holy, catholic (worldwide), and apostolic church of which CCPC is a part.
About the PCA
CCPC is a member church of The Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), which was formed in 1973 to be a denomination that is "Faithful to the Scriptures, True to the Reformed Faith, and Obedient to the Great Commission."
Evangelical
We emphasize the Gospel (the good news of salvation) through faith in Jesus Christ, as well as affirming other orthodox Christian doctrines and holding to the inerrancy of Scripture.
Reformed
We are connected to the teachings of the historic church and the doctrinal beliefs of the Reformation. These doctrinal beliefs are expressed in the Westminster Confession of Faith with the Larger and Shorter Catechisms. All officers of the Presbyterian Church in America must personally subscribe to and uphold the teachings of the Westminster Confession of Faith.
Presbyterian
Local churches are governed by a "Session" of "presbyters" (elders), elected by the members of the congregation. Representatives of local churches within a geographical area comprise a "presbytery." Representatives of presbyteries meet annually at "General Assembly." Thus, through the combined efforts and resources of all of the churches, we are enabled to advance God's Kingdom much more effectively. The Committees and Agencies of the PCA help lead this Kingdom work.
