"BRIAN!!!" This is one of the many sounds that greets me as I enter the church building, whether it be at Detour, my youth group, or church on Sunday mornings. One of my favorite things about CCC is definitely the people there. They're always welcoming and friendly, and I have made some of my best friends at church. The community that I feel when I walk through the doors is one of my favorite feelings in the world:  a feeling of acceptance and assurance.So whether I'm searching for advice, or simply the screaming of a ridiculous nickname to make me feel accepted, I am always excited to get to church on Sundays and Thursday evenings.

Once, I went on a week long vacation in the summer. Consequently, my family visited another church while we were away.  I remember it was a very nice church, and the people were friendly enough. But I can not TELL you how happy I was the next Sunday, back in my own niche. I guess it's just the style of our church that I love so much. Especially the music. I love the fact that I can worship, and have fun at the same time. Some of my favorite songs, I get to sing on Sundays. And the songs I get to listen to at Detour? I love to dance to them!!! Although the church is always looking to change, somehow it's always familiar because of that. I suppose, being the Pastor's daughter, I'm a bit biased. But I have been to several great churches, and although the preaching can be great, I'm happiest and most interested when I'm at home.
