CCP is exactly what I think church should be. Our values are love, community service, social justice and action, inclusivity and spiritual growth because The Congregational Church of the Peninsula (CCP) is a Micah 6:8 church: And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

It is a large church and the patrons to the church as well as the school children were very well behaved.

I would definitely come back to the Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

The warmth they have (especially towards kids) is refreshing. That appears to be part of their DNA through generations (with many families having been there for decades). Also importantly is their commitment to teaching scripture in a way that all can understand and act upon. The pastor and elders have intelligence and care in their souls, and it comes through in all they say and do. They also regularly celebrate baptisms and communion. And even if you are not Christian or have a complicated relationship with religion, they will still happily welcome you! Finally, their commitment to the well being of communities both local and foreign is concrete and steady. Ministries include serving homeless, providing relief people in war-torn areas, supporting foreign missions - all in humble and glad service for the name of Christ. Having been through a wide variety of church experiences over the years (including many not so good experiences), Waypoint is truly an oasis. Truly thankful to God for them.

Upon…read moreobservation, I have been impressed with the active community involvement such as hosting a food pantry and a farmer's market. I have also seen signs of vibrant activity such as youth group and Bible study. A few months ago, I noticed a sign offering information about a grief support group. This resonated with me after the sudden and unexpected passing of my Mom. After reaching out for information, I received a warm, graceful, and grace-filled response from Pastor Shannon Pappas and was encouraged to join the group. I am forever grateful for the opportunity for sharing, caring, and support through my journey and my new normal. I am profoundly grateful that we could partake of a Blue Christmas service which brought peace and comfort to me when I needed it most. Since the conclusion of the group, I have attended the Ash Wednesday service in person, and the Lenten and Easter Services online. I am impressed by the upbeat contemporary music and welcoming atmosphere. I also have been moved and gained insight through Pastor Shannon's eloquent preaching. The series on the open hand during Lent was remarkable. The Easter sermon about Doubting Thomas was refreshingly candid. I also commend him for a sermon devoted to answering questions and not shying away from difficult topics/subjects.
