This is Community Church
Our church practices extravagant hospitality, where all are invited to God's table. We create a safe space for hard questions, where all voices are welcomed, respected and heard. We reflect this diversity of expression through inspirational worship, music, and the arts. Following the Way of Jesus, we practice our faith through transformational mission. If you want to strengthen your faith and increase your compassion for all God’s people, come and see.

Mission
Jesus devoted his time on earth to serving and helping those in need and he encouraged his followers to do the same. He believed that a fulfilling life is one lived for the benefit of others. In the same spirit, Community Church strives to be a beacon of compassion and service to our local community and beyond.
