Worship Time

We gather for worship every
Sunday morning at 9:30am.

We celebrate Holy Communion on the first and third Sundays of each month.

WORSHIP TEAM OPEN DOOR EVENT - Friday, June 17th @ 7:00pm

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;
break forth into joyous song and sing praises.
                                                                                            Psalm 98:4

The Worship and Tech Teams put together a plan for growing our team and inviting others
to participate in providing musical leadership in worship.
Part of that plan includes placing the following ad
on Craigslist:

Looking for skilled musicians to be a part of a church worship team.
We have a small committed core of volunteer musicians looking to
grow our team to allow for rotation of both instrumentalists and vocalists.
We play contemporary Christian worship music.
We rehearse for 90 minutes Tuesday evening
and one worship service on Sunday morning, a two and a half hour commitment.
If you play drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, other instruments and/or sing
and are looking for a welcoming community of musicians,
and an opportunity to gain experience performing live,
please contact us at 503-617-9526 or pastordavid@comchristchurch.org.

However, before we look outward, we want to start here at home with the members and friends of ChristChurch.
Do you play an instrument?
Do you sing?
Do you have a passion for using your musical gifts to praise God?
Would you like to be part of creating a Sunday morning experience that welcomes others into that worship
and praise as well? 
​If you are interested contact us at 503-617-9526 or pastordavid@comchristchurch.org.

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth.
                                                                                                   Psalm 100:1

Worship and Music

While the theology of grace informs
our Lutheran identity, we express
our gratitude for that grace in a slightly less structured, contemporary and
casual worship style that is designed
to welcome people of all faith traditions
and no faith tradition.

Our worship is family friendly and inter-generational.
We encourage families to bring their children with them to worship. Praise songs, hymns, scripture, prayers and the sacraments are all combined into a worship experience in which we hope all people will hear God’s comforting and challenging word for them.

Weekly Readings

Community of ChristChurch is part of a growing number of faith communities around
North America that are using a preaching text series called the Narrative Lectionary.
The Narrative Lectionary is a four-year cycle of readings. On the Sundays from September through May each year the texts follow the sweep of the biblical story, from Creation through the early Christian church.The texts include the major episodes in Scripture. They are arranged in a narrative sequence to help all of us see Scripture as a story that has coherence and a dynamic movement:

  • From September to mid-December the preaching texts begin with the early chapters of Genesis, and then move through the stories of Israel’s early history, the exodus, the kings, prophets, exile, and return.
  • From Christmas to Easter there is sustained reading of one
    of the four gospels (next year that Gospel will be Luke)
  • From Easter to Pentecost the texts are chosen from Acts
    and Paul’s letters.
  • After Pentecost Sunday, we take a summer break from the structure of the Narrative Lectionary to do some shorter themed sermon series, such as the Psalms, the Apostles' Creed, or our current series... Breathing Underwater, based on the book of the same name by Father Richard Rohr.

Sunday readings here.
The Narrative Lectionary texts show the breadth and variety of voices within Scripture. They invite people to hear the stories of Abraham and Sarah, Moses and the prophets, Jesus, and Paul. Listening to the many different voices within Scripture enriches our worship life and informs our life of faith.
