WELCOME TO COMMUNITY CHURCH  OF CHRIST
DERIDDER, LA

Statement of Faith

We are a multi-racial group of God's children who are working for the Kingdom.  The best single word that describes us is "family."  We eat together, pray together, laugh together, cry together, and walk alongside each other as we serve our Lord.  We're more of a hospital for the hurting and spiritually wounded.  Like our Savior, we meet people where they are and, like Him, we don't leave them there.

Our assemblies are designed to help you worship God surrounded by a community of believers who love God and His children.   Here you will find a genuine church family, worts and all.  Instead of asking you to leave your burdens outside the door, we encourage you to bring them in with you and let us help you lay them at the feet of a loving God who cares about you, and who cares for you.

WHAT KIND OF MUSIC?
We gather to praise the name of Jesus.  We choose to sing acappella that our hearts be heard on high. 

COMMUNION
You will notice that we observe the Lord's Supper every Sunday.  We join with Christians around the world to remember and to celebrate all that Christ did as he gave his body to be broken for us.  We hope that you will feel Christ's love for you in the breaking of the bread and in the midst of our fellowship.

MESSAGE 
Each week, you will hear a positive, practical message from the Bible to help in your every day life -- something you can use on the job or at school, with your family or friends.  Rather than just make it through the day, the messages will help you get the most out of life.

BAPTISM
We have a baptistry full of water.  There is nothing magic about the water.  It serves as a grave where believers are buried that they be raised to start life over. (Rom. 6:3-5)

WHAT DO YOU WEAR?
Our attitude is "come as you are".  God is more interested in what's in your heart than what's on your back.  You will find jeans at every service.
