Three years ago Liz and I, though physically recovering, thought something was missing in our lives. So we had agreed to go to several area churches. The first church we went to was Community Presbyterian and that's when our search ended. Instantly, we were drawn to the pastor. Pastor Greg's sermons were inspirational and we thought he was talking directly to us. Pastor Greg visited us at our home several times and the parishioners welcomed us like long lost family. We both felt as if we have found our spiritual home. God truly closes one door and opens another. |
In my youth , I became interested in mission work. At the time, I corresponded with a minister from Olivet who traveled to Thailand. Mission work became my goal, a goal not fulfilled until adulthood. CPC started a mission to the Dominican Republic and for a ten year period, I traveled there as a member of the health team to run a health clinic. My mission work was also here in the United States: in Pennsylvania for work in a nursing home and Colorado to work in homeless shelters and soup kitchens . I can thank CPC for its leadership and caring about my desire to fulfill a long ago dream of being a missionary. I feel the presence of God in our church, our congregation and its love, caring and friendship. I feel so grateful to be a member of CPC. |
