Our Vision
 |
We at Community Mennonite Church are Christians seeking to know Christ and to follow Christ in daily life. Since our beginning in 1972, we have followed a two-fold vision for church life, symbolized by our name Community. Our inward vision is to have a quality of congregational life that makes us a true community of God's people sharing, learning, and serving together. Our outward vision is to show God's presence in this community through evangelism and outreach ministries. We also try to understand our role as God's people in the broader global community. Though we have many programs and activities, all have a common goal. That goal is to call people to a personal faith in Christ and to inspire persons to live in a way that gives evidence to that faith. Both individually and as a church family, we strive to be the living presence of Christ in the world. |
Our Congregational life
| At Community Mennonite we get together regularly to encourage, support, and challenge each other. Through congregational worship, Christian education, and small groups, we celebrate God's activity among us and commit ourselves to God's purposes. |  |
Congregational Worship
 |
We believe God is present whenever God's people gather. That is why we worship together each week. And that is why we encourage everyone to participate in worship. Services are led by a variety of persons, while the whole congregation participates in readings, prayers, songs, and sharing. We give opportunity for children and youth to participate in ways that are meaningful to them. We try to keep our services informal but well-planned, innovative yet appreciative of our traditions, and inspirational while urging practical, personal responses to God's call.
