Our Mission is to reach the next person for Jesus.  Pray for the one person or one family you would like to get connected to God. 
TEACHING

The book of James is a fast-paced, practical series all about real faith in real life. You’ll be encouraged, challenged, and inspired as we walk through this powerful little letter together. Plus, everyone will receive a free James Journal for the series, complete with sermon notes, group guides, and a daily scripture reading to help you journal your way through James.

Mar. 22:  The Power of Prayer (James 5:13-20)  It’s our first response  Some burdens get heavier when you keep them private.  James ends with a picture of a church family that prays together.  For the suffering, the sick, and the struggling.  Not polished prayers. Real ones.  And God meets them. Healing. Restoration. Rescue.  As we finish our journey through James this Sunday, come see why prayer is not a last resort. It’s the lifeline God built into His people.

Join us in-Person at 9:00am (acapella) or 11:15AM (instrumental) or Livestream at YouTube.com/Clearcreekcoc or clearcreek.online.church.
