Adult Fellowship and Bible Studies

Adult Book Study

Throughout the year various book studies are announced with various meeting times, usually evenings. 


Martha Circle

Marta Circle meets the 3rd Tuesday of the month, usually meeting in the Fireside Room for a book study. Various times of the year they may also have a picnic and/or a meal at  a restaurant. They also do mission projects.


Seafarers

This is an adult social group that usually meets on Fridays. They often meet at restaurants and enjoy a meal together. They also choose to sponsor various mission activities to sponsor. They facilitate a book exchange one Sunday a month.


Men's Book Club

Every month a book is chosen to be read by the group. On the last Sunday of the month, after Service, we meet for fellowship and book discussion.


Host a Gathering

The Hospitality committee is inviting members and friends of CPC to host small gatherings. We hope these events help build up the fellowship of our community while also supporting our campership fund. Perhaps you have a great home theater setup; consider hosting a movie night. If you have a beautiful garden, consider hosting an afternoon garden party. If you know how to make a particular dish, consider offering a hands-on cooking session. If you have a great man-cave, consider hosting a poker night.


If you have ideas or wish to host something in the next few months, please contact any member of the Hospitality Committee or the Church Office.
