Man Cave Men Park Clean Up
This Saturday, July 27th
9 AM-Noon!
Another park clean up effort is underway for our Man Cave Men! This clean up will be of the Ohlone Greenway just two blocks from the church! Join us on Saturday, July 27, 9 AM to Noon. The meeting point is at the gym machines across from the Senior Center, 848 Masonic Avenue. Gloves and tools will be provided. Please remember to wear your COTC tee shirt!
Communion Served this Sunday
This Sunday we will be serving Communion during our worship service. This important ordinance of our faith serves to not only remind us of Christ's sacrifice for us and his future return, but is also an opportunity to reafirm our unity in the body of Christ as expressed through our local church.

Afterwards, we will take up an optional Communion offering that will be dedicated to alleviating homelessness in our own community through our partnership with the Diverse Housing Working Group. Last Sunday, we had the chance to hear Beth Beller of DHWG share some of their amazing success stories in helping people to get off the streets! This is an important way for us to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus to our community!

"Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all share the one loaf."
-1 Corinthians 10:16-17
Envisioning & Equipping Event
