Christ Community Church, a United Methodist Congregation

Lively, less formal, contemporary-styled worship begins at 8:20 a.m. Singing is led by our praise team under the leadership of Cory Geesaman. Puppets often share special moments with the children. Prayer time and a relevant, Scripture-based message round out this service of Praise and Celebration.

The 10:50 a.m. service is a more traditional and formal style of worship. Organ and piano accompany the singing of hymns. The 25-voice Chancel Choir, under the direction of Julie Thomas, sings to both piano accompaniment and orchestration tracks. Occasionally the Prince of Peace Hand Bell Choir plays. Children at this service also interact with the puppets and other leaders. The same relevant, Scripture-based message is delivered at this service of Proclamation and Response.
