Thanks for visiting our church website. You may notice that we are updating the site more regularly, with a list of upcoming events listed below.
I just started a blog at http://willymac4.blogspot.com in which you are welcome to participate. Feel free to read and respond to my musings on the church, the christian life, and our loves.
We at CPC describe ourselves as family, so please take a while to get to know us here and then come out to one of our events. I am sure you will find a place in the family of God here!
