Important Info:
First Off, We Are Thankful for YOU! - With Thanksgiving next week, we just wanted to say how thankful we are for all of you! You work tirelessly to serve the Lord at CBCTV, and we are blessed greatly on a daily basis by your faithful service. Keep up the great kingdom work! We pray God blesses you with rest and joy in Him over these next few months before we turn the corner into 2023. - The Pastors
Christmas Eve & Christmas Services - We will have two Christmas Eve services in the afternoon on Christmas Eve (we are still finalizing the times for those). We will ALSO be having normal Sunday Services, 9am & 11am, on Christmas Day (which falls on a Sunday this year), which will be different from our Christmas Eve services. We will have Kids Ministry through 4 years old for both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day services. Kids 5 years and older will join us for the main service.
