Marietta Block Party Planned For Oct. 6 By Chelsea Peifer
Some people may think of Community Bible Church (CBC), 331 Anderson Ferry Road, Marietta, as “that big church up on the hill,” but senior pastor Jeff Burkholder would like that to change. The mission of CBC is to love God, love others, and reach out. One way that CBC actively reaches out is through its Community Care Center, located at 54 W. Market St., Marietta, which houses a clothing bank for local residents. “The clothing bank has been in existence for many, many years, but we want to see (the Community Care Center) develop into more than just that,” explained Burkholder. See Block Party pg 3
