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 lunch following our Sunday services, 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 luncheon will be Sunday, April 30th (following 10:30 AM service.
Gather
We believe that success starts on Sunday! There is something powerful that 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 that 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 would all grow in generosity. Through our weekly tithes and offerings, we invest into changed lives!

Baptism
Baptism is an important and significant spiritual decision for those on a path to follow Christ. Many people find this to be 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 it serves as an example for others who wish to follow in these same steps.
Whatis 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
