Reading and Reflection Group – Sunday Bible Study!
Do you like getting to the movies a little early so you can watch the previews? Do you read the book jacket so you get a peek at what’s ahead?
Well, we have a deal for you! Come join us in the library on Sundays at 9:15 a.m. to explore the readings and see how the Spirit moves in us.
We meet until 10:15 a.m. to allow the choir folks an opportunity to join us before going to choir practice.
Holy Scrollers
If you like reading and really like lively and thoughtful discussions, please join us for our monthly book club. We meet on Zoom on the 3rd Wednesday of each month from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Women's Morning Circle
The Morning Circle is a women’s Bible study group, open to all women of CPC. We meet on the second Tuesday of every month (September to May), focusing on the Horizon Bible Study series, published by the Presbyterian Church (USA). Our Circle group meets from 10 a.m. to 11:30 or noon, with meetings often occurring on Zoom or occasionally in members’ homes.

Interested in joining others to use or gain some gardening skills. Work as a team or on your own as we maintain the landscaping of the CPC Courtyard on Saturday mornings.
Featured Activity
The Nicene Creed
- 5-week class
- Jan 8 – Feb 4
- Thursdays on ZOOM
- 6:30-7:45pm
- Rev. Mary Swierenga
It’s the oldest creed of them all! The Presbyterian Church (USA)’s Book of Confessions begins with it. It’s the earliest and most central statement of what Christians have believed since 325 BCE.
Our first adult Sunday School class will usher in the creed’s 1701st year. So, come, learn the ancient history taking place in Nicea, a little town in modern Turkey. Uncover its complicated political and theological context during Rome’s last days, as well as its significance for the church today. It’s a history we know little about—so you’re invited to begin a new year by learning something that’s really worth knowing! Grab a warm drink, put on your slippers and comfy lounge clothes. Eating supper during class is just fine!
One last thing: The book for the class is Tokens of Trust: An Introduction to Christian Belief by Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury. Thought provoking and will stimulate conversation!
