Year end planning: Please note that all gifts to Community Church must be received by THIS TUESDAY, December 30. 2025 in order to be included on your 2025 giving record.  Remember, you can always give online at www.casselberrychurch.org/give.  We want to end the year strong and on great financial footing!  We would never have made it this far if not for your generous and faithful gifts.  Thank you so much!
 
The Church Office will be closed to the general public from December 29th until January 2nd to give our staff time to celebrate the holidays with their families.  If you have any needs, please call the church office as staff will be in and out, attending to necessary tasks and checking messages.  Thank you!

Our N.O.M.A.D. teams are excited about joining us here at Community Church to serve, worship and be a part of our fellowship, and will be arriving at the end of this month to begin work on the first Monday in January.  N.O.M.A.D. teams are made up of 8 or more retired persons who stay on our church campus in their R.V.’s and help us with projects around the church campus.  They provide free labor and expertise to a host of needs in our buildings and community.  We  need donations to help with the cost of materials.  If you can help, simply designate your check or envelope, “NOMAD Projects”.  Thank you!  

Our N.O.M.A.D. teams also appreciate any homemade snacks or goodies you may want drop off at the church office, beginning January 5th.  Thank you for your hospitality for our hard working NOMADS!

For all of you who are interested in Missions and Outreach, there will be a meeting on Tuesday, January 6th at 6:30pm in the CLC.

Looking for a Bible reading plan for the new year?  Check out the church website and app for our Navigators “Book at a Time” Bible reading plan.  Pastor Ted will be using this plan, and basing his Monday devotionals on its readings.  If you’ve never read through the Bible, there is no better time than now!  Let’s dive into God’s Word together!

Women in Stitches meet 1st & 3rd Tuesdays of each month. Contact is Stephanie Vickers. Consider becoming a part and call the church office for info.
