Summit Family Friendly Church | Community Congregational Church

“We bring people together in the name of Christ and create a community in terms of His spirit through worship, education, fellowship and outreach. We welcome all persons, regardless of former or present religious affiliation, who express a desire to live a Christian life.” - from the Church Bylaws
What makes Community Congregational Church unique? There are two features that make CCC unique:
1. We welcome people from all faith and spiritual backgrounds and traditions. We do not dictate what members believe, and, instead, encourage everyone to find and follow their own, Christ-centered spiritual path.2. We invite everyone as an active participant in the ministry, management and mission of Community Congregational Church.
Through this combination of individual spiritual diversity and communal participation, we become one family of faith.
What is a Congregational Church?The term refers to the way the congregation is managed, which is also known as church polity. The term says everything about how the church is run, namely by the members of the congregation. At congregational meetings, members transact all the business of the church in an autonomous manner, free from external ecclesiastical control.
What is the origin of Congregationalism?North American Congregationalism started in New England with the Puritans and Pilgrims of the 1620s, where Congregational churches are still prevalent.
What is the faith of this Church?As a Protestant church, we aim to bring people together in the name of Christ and to create a community in terms of Christ’s Spirit through worship, education, fellowship and outreach. Our members come from all denominations and grow individually in their pursuit to develop a personal understanding of the Bible and the Christian faith.
How do I get to know the character of the congregation?Try our weekly family worship! You will meet other people and get to know the style of worship and music that characterize it.
