1. In God, The Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth. In Jesus Christ, His Only son, Our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. In The Holy Spirit, in the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen!

+ Women In Ministry

We believe women as well as men are called to preach, teach and minister in the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit. Although women are called to operate in this capacity; the general principle in scripture is male leadership both in the home and in the church. Circumstances may warrant times when God in his sovereignty will empower a woman to be the head of her family, or to have a governmental role in the Church. There are clear biblical precedents and examples where women have exercised effective leadership. `CCC’ allows each local church to decide this sensitive issue for themselves. Woman pastors who join our fellowship will have the same privileges as their male counterparts; along with the support and counsel of our apostolic leadership.
