Church Office & CLC Closure

Sign up for Worship on Sunday, April 11th

Join us for in-person worship services each week at 9:30 a.m. (contemporary service) and 11:00 a.m. (traditional service). Both services will be live-streamed for those who prefer to worship at home. You can find more details about each service here.

We are requiring that all attendees of an in-person service pre-register since spaces are limited due to physical distancing. You may register for Sunday, April 11th at the links below. Please remember to only sign up for one spot unless your family unit plans to sit in more than one pew.

*Register for the 9:30 a.m. (contemporary) service here.

*Register for the 11:00 a.m. (traditional) service here.

As we continue to love each other and our neighbor, we require that everyone attending an in-person worship gathering wear a mask and respect physical distancing of at least 6 feet. Keeping each other safe is very important to us. We hope that you and your family choose to join us for worship on Sundays at 9:30, 11:00, or online as we gather to worship.

Baby Blessing Day

Please plan to be present this Sunday, April 11, as we recognize the babies born into our church family during 2020. All morning worship services will include celebration of these precious new family members!

Critical Need During Worship 

Your help is needed Sundays as part of the Audio/Visual team! This vital ministry ensures that everyone is able to experience a meaningful worship service, both in the Auditorium as well as at home. With the addition of a live stream, the number of people needed to fill this role well has increased. It is our goal to include enough people to be able to rotate teams, serving once a month.

Wait! Before you decide you aren’t able to fill one of these roles, take another look. If you regularly use a smartphone or use a computer for tasks such as sending emails and browsing the internet, you have all of the tools necessary to be a great A/V person. Training will be provided for specific details, but rest easy - these aren’t highly technical jobs. They are, however, very essential.

If you would like to know more, and especially if you are ready to join the A/V team, contact Clay Fowler (cfowler@cocws.org).
