CGC Vision Statement – 2023
We are a spirit-filled body of believers desiring to be a refuge for neighbors in our community who need the love of a savior. We believe God is using us to promote multicultural ministry through service both locally and abroad.
Our purpose is to instill a passion for learning the Bible through sound instruction in the Sunday services, daily devotions, weekly studies, and ongoing, gospel-centered dialogue with each member participating in teaching and learning under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Our intention is to encourage intimacy with the Lord through vibrant worship opportunities incorporating instruments, singing, and dance, and powerful prayer in our worship services and weekly prayer meetings.
Our vision is to bring together people of all generations to participate in communion and community by providing space for table fellowship, discussion, and small groups, and to see every member using their spiritual gifts for the building up of the entire body.
Our calling is to be a light in our region, drawing the lost to Christ and fostering life-long discipleship and spiritual growth through Bible study, service opportunities, and discipleship classes.
Our dream is to expand our reach beyond our current facility and resources to become a multi-campus fellowship, claiming the headwaters of the Susquehanna River for the Kingdom of God and providing services to a diverse community with a variety of needs.
If you are looking for a place to call home and a church where you can grow and serve, please join us as we walk in the destiny to which He has called us.
Memory Verse – I Corinthians 3:16 Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?
Acts 1:1 In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God. 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. 5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?”
7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
9 After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.
10 They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. 11 “Men of Galilee,”they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”
Acts 2:1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tonguesas the Spirit enabled them.
