We are preparing for the cold months by making quilts for the Allentown warming station. We welcome volunteers! Can't sew? You can still "sow" God's love by helping us to iron and cut. We would love to have you join us.

Come explore the nature of God in a week full of fun. Our annual VBS will start on Monday, July 20th at 6pm for elementary age students. Come make friends and learn about God's creations. On Sunday, July 26th, we will have our children's service when our VBS kids showcase what they have learned to the congregation. We will have an outdoor picnic following the service so dress casually. For more information, email vbs@cbc-abe.org.

Dear Beloved CBC Family and Friends, As we step into this New Year together, my heart is full of gratitude for each of you and great expectation for what God desires to do among us. A new year invites us not only to set goals, but to be INTENTIONAL—especially about our relationships with God and with one another. In a world that often pulls us toward isolation and distraction, the Holy Spirit calls us deeper into genuine connection, forgiveness, encouragement, and love.
