Grace At Work
Grace at Work is an opportunity to join with other members and friends of Country Club Christian Church for a half day of service and fun. During these community-focused events, which take place one Saturday in the spring and one in the fall, you will be helping to create visible change in our local community.
Virginia Reed Food Drive
Ways to Give to the Food Drive – We have three easy ways to share the bounty with the hungry in our community:
- Bring food to the donation points anytime you come to church (baskets are located in the chapel, the parlor, east door, north door, south door). Any non-perishable canned or dry food item is welcome! (No glass containers please.)
- Make a financial contribution to the Virginia Reed Food Drive on the Harvesters Community Food Network website.
- Make a financial contribution to the church and mark your check or giving envelope “food drive.” You may place these gifts in the offering plate during worship.
Collection Connection
Donate the “item of the month” to the basket in the church parlor or make a financial gift to the Collection Connection. Read The Christian for information about the items being collected throughout the year. Past examples include toothbrushes for Nicaragua, personal hygiene items for Christmas stockings, and yarn for the knitting ministry.

“And” Is the Key Word
April 19, 2018As many of you know, my title at the church is Scholar in Residence and Minister of Spiritual Formation, a title with “and” in there.

When I think about spiritual formation, I think naturally about how persons mature in their faith, which for me implies “and” in the process. Specifically: learning and doing.
