Starting January 10th, we are going to move to three Sunday services. The times will be 8:30; 9:30; 11:00. Why?
1. We need more room.
Yesterday in our second service I looked out on the church and there was hardly any open seats. In fact, people where standing. What if someone comes in looking for spiritual health, and we are too full for them? We need to make room for people to meet Jesus.
2. We've always done what it took to reach people for Jesus.
"Steve, are you going to be able to do another service?" People ask me. I appreciate there concern. But my answer is the same: I will do whatever it takes to reach people for Christ. That has been our attitude from day one.
We used to start setting up the church at the Byron Legion at 6:00 in the morning. We would take about four loads of equipment in my green escort. And then we would clean up the place. We would move kegs of beer. We would spray cans of Lysol. We would move chairs. By the time the service started at 10:00 we had already worked for four hours. Why? People at CCC have always been willing to pay the price to reach people for Christ. Our current generation of leaders are no different.
What an exciting time at CCC!
