I'm here to help you find the place to call home

Here's everything you need to know about CLF to feel comfortable and confident on your first visit.

YOUR FIRST SUNDAY

No surprises. I want you to feel like you've already been here before you walk in.

☕️

You'll see a coffee bar first

People chatting, grabbing coffee. A couple of greeters will say hi — mention it's your first time and they'll help you find a seat.

Wear whatever feels comfortable

You'll see everything from jeans and sneakers to something a little more put together. There's genuinely no dress code.

why clf

This isn't just another church

I know you've got options - and there's many great churches out there, here's a few things that make us different.

More than 3 Songs and a Sermon

Our gatherings aren’t a religious routine. We leave space for worship, prayer, and real encounters with God.

We don't do fake

We care more about genuine connection and life together than putting on a good front.

We care about the person on Monday

We care more about real growth in your life than just showing up on Sundays.

in their words

Here's what some friends said

"…genuine…"

"…genuine…"

My life was literally changed the moment I walked into a worship service almost 2 years ago. Every Sunday heaven comes down and we meet the Father face to face. I have made some amazing friends here and people that genuinely treat me like family. This church doesn't allow broken people to stay broken.

"…Spirit-Led…"

"…Spirit-Led…"

It is rare to find a church that values family and the Holy Spirit like CLF. Their love for people and love for Jesus is amazing. When you come to this church you can count on being welcome and feeling like family. The preaching is Bible-based and the worship is spirit-led.

the real questions

You're probably wondering

These are real questions I asked before visiting churches. I'll do my best to answer here, but these are conversation the leaders would love to have.

Are Your Leaders Accountable?

What if I've been hurt by church before?

Will I be loved here or just recruited?

What if I show up and don't like it?

a note from our pastors

"We started this church to see God change lives."

I grew up in a dysfunctional home. I know what it feels like to think you're too far gone. But God restored what I thought was unrepairable And we believe that can happen for everyone who comes through the door.

Paul Kidd, Senior Pastor
