What To Expect
Real. Relevant. Relational.
We’re so glad that you’re considering paying a visit to Community Spirit Church — virtual or otherwise!
We know it can be challenging to enter a new community, especially during these uncertain times, but we hope you’ll find a friendly welcome and comfortable atmosphere when you join us. Community Spirit UCC is a small congregation of singles and families, elders and young folks, dyed-in-the-wool churchgoers, and people who are new to their faith journey and to the church—all coming together to encounter a loving and accepting God.
We hope this page will answer some of your questions, but we believe that the best way to get to know us is, well, to get to know us.
We are a progressive community of faith in the heart of Colorado’s western slope.
Relaxed Atmosphere
True to the style of western Colorado, attire is generally casual, ranging from t-shirts and jeans to jackets and ties. Please dress in what is most comfortable for you.
Guests will not be singled out but will be given the opportunity to quietly observe and engage however they feel led. Please feel free to introduce yourself to others as you arrive.
Children
We love having children in our worship gatherings. They are always welcome and are considered to be as vital to the Community Spirit family as anyone.
Discussions
Our messages are designed to be interactive in nature, so it is not uncommon for a few moments to be set aside throughout the teaching to discuss what is being talked about. This serves as an opportunity to engage as a community while exploring how the teaching applies to our individual and corporate lives.
Offerings
Like many other churches, giving financial support for the ministries that God has called us to is a part of our worship. Our guests are not expected to give, but you are free to do so if you choose. You can donate by check (payable to Community Spirit Church), or make an online donation at communityspiritucc.org/give. Please include your name and address if you would like a tax-deductible statement sent to you at the end of the year.
Welcome Card
When we meet in person, we have “welcome cards” available for you to fill out and leave in the collection plate. If you only worship with us on Zoom, we ask that you share your contact information with us on our virtual form.
Fellowship Time
After the worship service concludes, you are invited to stay and visit so we can get to know you better.
If you have any questions before attending a worship service, please feel free to call or text Pastor Karen at 970-765-7070 or send an email to revkaren@communityspiritucc.org.
