FALL GUIDE 2018

Welcome Cottonwood Family, We’ve said goodbye to a successful and action-packed summer and we look forward to saying hello to fall! This Fall Guide will provide you with information all about everything we have coming up in this new season, and there is certainly a lot to look forward to.

Everything put on hold for the summer is coming back, including Care Groups, Kid Care, and Creek Student Ministry Small Groups and Home Groups. We also can’t wait to see how much our Home Groups and Life Groups will continue to grow. Creek Kids will host Fall Festival for the entire community in October and The Gift will be in fullforce the following month in November. Our brand new Chapel will hold the first of

John Mark Caton Senior Pastor

many weddings to come, and our NEXT KIDS project will be complete.

I can’t wait to see what the fall has in store for our church. Thank you for being a part of the Cottonwood Family. Let’s make this fall of 2018 one to remember.

Your Pastor,

John Mark Caton

ATTEND A WORSHIP SERVICE Worship services are what bring the entire Cottonwood Family together on weekends!

All of our services are filled with fellowship, amazing worship, incredible teaching by Pastor John Mark Caton, and close-knit community through Life and Home Groups.

Weekends at Cottonwood Creek are a great way to kick off your week ahead and focus you on what matters most in life: honoring God. Through attending a Worship service, you will learn a little more about what Cottonwood Creek’s mission is about: welcoming the next person through the doors. Join us at one of our Worship Services: Saturday at 5:00p Sunday at 9:30a & 11:00a Wednesday at 6:30p

VISIT A LIFE OR HOME GROUP

Community is crucial to the body of Christ. As the body of Christ, we are called to be perfectly united in mind and thought. 1 John 1:7 tells us, “But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.”

Cottonwood Creek encourages and invites you to be a part of our Life Groups and Home Groups.

Life Groups meet on Saturday night and Sunday mornings.

Each group is composed of people in the same walks

of life, from newlyweds and young married couples with children, to empty nesters.

Home Groups are essentially the same thing as Life Groups, but they meet throughout the week in church members’ homes. These groups are specifically intentional with having accountability with one another and drawing close to one another outside of the church walls.

To get involved with a Life Group or Home Group, visit cottonwoodcreek.org/groups or text GROUPS to 77978.

Sports 3 Years - Adults The purpose of the Cottonwood Creek Sports Academy is to bring glory to God by showing kids and adults how athletics is a way to express worship. CCSA staff and coaches strive to do their very best to live by a higher standard and to be an example to players and families. We believe things like integrity, hard work, teamwork and character are integral to the development of not only the athlete, but also the heart behind the jersey. We offer year-round competitive and recreational programming for indoor volleyball, beach volleyball, boys and girls basketball, summer camps and adult fitness. co t t o n w o o d c r eek s p o r t s . o r g

Faith@Home All Ages + Stages Faith@Home is a quest for authentic faith, a faith that is lived out in our daily activities, is modeled in our homes and communities and passed down to the next generation. At Cottonwood Creek, we want to come alongside and help you on your faith journey. We believe that true “Authentic Faith” is one that thrives both inside and outside the walls of the church building. It is not something that can be compartmentalized or only demonstrated on Sunday mornings.

SERVE WITH YOUR CHURCH FAMILY As followers of God, it is our duty to serve the Lord’s Kingdom. We are called to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ and to pursue to serve the way He served when He walked the earth all those years ago. At Cottonwood Creek, there are endless possibilities for just that! Whether you are helping lead worship for Creek Kids, spending time and ministering with our Creek Student Ministry, joining the Senior Adult Ministry for a JOYUS luncheon, participating in mission trips with our On Mission team, leading a Life Group, or raising your voice to the Lord in a Worship service, there are so many ways to embrace your inner servant’s heart and serve with the Cottonwood Family.

The Connections Ministry is looking for people to join our ministry team. Greeters, Welcome Center Hosts, Parking Hosts, and Online Ministry Hosts are needed.

No experience necessary.

Training provided. Please send an email to will.chapman@ cottonwoodcreek.org for more information.

INVITE FAMILY, FRIENDS, NEIGHBORS AND STRANGERS The Cottonwood Family is made up of people from all walks of life. The one thing that we have in common though is that we all trust that Jesus Christ is the Savior of our lives.

We love God and love others.

Sometimes, it can be intimidating when you invite someone to church.

However, it doesn’t have to be! Cottonwood Creek offers many events throughout the year that are open to anyone and everyone. If you know of a family with children, invite them to Fall Festival or to serve at The Gift. If you know a single person, invite them to go to Worship Service and Life Group with you. This is a perfect opportunity for them to meet new people and get plugged into a great community.

Stop by the Connect Wall on Saturdays and Sundays for more information on getting connected at Cottonwood Creek.
