First Steps

First Steps is our “Welcome to Church Party,” offered quarterly throughout the year. This is an opportunity for those new to CLC to join us for dinner, meet our Pastors and Staff, and learn more about who we are as a church (Childcare available if needed). We would love for you to join us so that we can get to know you and you to know us. Our next First Steps dinner will be on January 17th.





Gather

We believe that success starts on Sunday! Something powerful happens when we gather with God’s people in God’s presence and are reminded of God’s promises.

Group

Real life change happens through real relationships. Our life groups are designed to foster authentic, Christ-centered relationships that help us move forward in life!

Serve

It says in scripture that Jesus did not come to be served but to serve others. We believe everyone has a purpose and is uniquely designed by God to make a difference!

Give

God gave his best for us, so we want to give our best for him. Our hope is that we will all grow in generosity. Through our weekly tithes and offerings, we invest in changed lives!

Baptism

Baptism is an important and significant spiritual decision for those on a path to follow Christ. Many people find this an exciting and positive first step as they publicly profess their faith. Baptism is an outward demonstration of an inward change, as found in 2 Corinthians 5:17. “When someone becomes a Christian, he becomes a brand new person inside. The old life has passed away, and a new life has begun!”


We consider it a great blessing to be a part of this wonderful celebration of your faith. It is a blessing to the church body and serves as an example for others who wish to follow in these same steps.

What is the significance of Baptism?

Baptism is a public declaration of three very important things:

You are a follower of Jesus Christ. “Those who accepted his message were baptized.” —Acts 2:41

You are beginning a changed life in Christ. “We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” —Romans 6:4

You are part of a new family. “So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” —Galatians 3:26–27

Interested in being baptized or remembering your baptism?

We consider it a great blessing to be a part of this wonderful celebration of your faith. Schedule a baptism using the button below or register for a very special service and create a memory you and your family will treasure for years to come. We have Spring and Fall baptism services at Navarre Beach. Dates for those are coming soon.

Serve
We believe faith grows when we serve others. We believe lives change for both those serving and for those being served. We have tons of opportunities for folks to use their time and talents to make a difference in the lives of others. Click below to serve in one of the ministry areas listed.
