In preparation for the next season at Cottonwood Creek Church, we have begun Onward, our online and on-campus expansion project!
The Onward projects include updating obsolete equipment in the Worship Center to increase our streaming efforts, updating our online presence through a new website and a new app, and adding long-awaited parking spaces.
We expect God to bring more people to our campus and to join us online, and when that happens, we want to be ready! Onward projects will benefit our church family and community for years to come.

LifeGroups: Online, At Home & On Campus
In a large population, creating a sense of community and connecting with others is important. In the church, it’s crucial. LifeGroups are small groups within the larger church in which people of similar interests take care of the “one another” in life. In a large church, it’s important that community exists in order for relationships to be real and relevant.
Restore
Wednesdays (Starting October 28) | After Midweek Chapel
Restore is a three month in-depth small group to help you heal from your past, learn who God is in your present and how, through Him, you can experience success and hope for your future. These groups meet after Midweek Chapel.

Cancer Care Ministry
Cancer. A word nobody wants to hear and a reality nobody wants to face. When a cancer diagnosis occurs, it’s overwhelming, frightening and many times shocking. Some people will face their cancer battle surrounded with supporters, while others might feel they have to go it alone. No matter the circumstance, Cancer Care Ministry at Cottonwood Creek is here to lift up those diagnosed with cancer.
The Gift

Night of Worship
