This Sunday, we're looking forward to another meaningful time of worship together as a church family. Whether you've been with us for years or you're brand new, you are welcome here-and we believe God has something for you this week.
With David, we all know fear and anxiety, especially because ours is an anxious time. Fortunately, in the powerful Psalm 27, David unveils the secret about how we can rest without fear. This Sunday, we sit under the timeless wisdom of this great Psalm.
There are so many exciting things happening here at Community Covenant Church, and we are excited to see God work in many ways here at CCC! Please read below on all that is coming up! We can't wait to see you this Sunday!
LIFE AT COMMUNITY COVENANT
Beach Baptism and BBQ - August 17th!

Bring something to grill and a dish to share as we enjoy community and new life in Christ together! If you're interested in being baptized, we'd love to hear from you!
Please Note: Service will be held OUTDOORS on August 17th at 10am at Community Covenant on the back lawn!? Baptism and BBQ will be held afterwards at Goleta Beach

Join Pastor Eric as he leads us through the life and times of the great Apostle Paul!??
Even 2000 years later, historians continue to ask who this important history-shaping man was. Over the course of these three Sunday evenings, we will explore those questions by surveying his historical context and then examining the original sources that tell his story. In the end, we will be better positioned to appreciate, value, and even love what St. Paul contributed to our Christian faith.
We will convene on August 10th and 17th in the Media Room at 6pm and wrap up at 7:30. This mini-course will provide helpful information for those heading on the tour this fall, but everyone is welcome?
