COMMUNITY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
STATEMENT of PURPOSE
PREAMBLE
In gratitude and prayerful dependence upon God, we seek to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. We desire to know and do God’s will in our life together, both now and in the future. We believe that God has raised up this Church for an important purpose in the world. We want to be prayerful, intentional and thoughtful as we fulfill our calling as a congregation, remaining committed to and directed by our 4-Fold Purpose:

CPC has joined with 15 other churches in the San Ramon Valley to accomplish the Valley Vision:
