Christmas at CPR

Scenes from Sunday Service

Sorry for the delay folks - had to take some travel time. But we are back and broadcasting again! Make sure while you are shopping and celebrating the holiday - remember Jesus is the Reason for the Season. This was the "Last First Sunday of 2009" - take time to reflect on the last year - where you've been - and where your going in your faith.

Enjoy - Be Blessed!

Church Meeting

Pastor Johnson and members of the church leadership met today with representatives of the membership. Topics discussed included the state of the church, upgrades to our facilities and website, changes to upcoming events and fundraiser submissions.

Make sure to take these opportunities to help guide OUR church.

Fellowship and Bowling

Some of the men got together to share some time seeing how bad each other bowls. No really pray for them.

Scenes from Evening of Elegance

At CPR we know how to show our faith AND how to fellowship - with style.

Men In Worship Service- Success

The men of CPR hosted a grand service last night! Calling on support of christian brothers from around the country they put on an musical extravaganza to raise money for the support of the ministry.

Congratulations to the CPR Male Chorus and Min. Derek Mosely for putting together this one of a kind event (Annual maybe? Hint, hint.) that was a joy for all in attendance. Speaking of which - thank you to every one that came to support the men of CPR in our efforts - we hope you continue that support through and beyond our upcoming Men's and Women's day celebrations.

If you missed the service last night or want to relive it - there are efforts to produce both audio (CD) and video (DVD) copies of the event for sale at later date in the near future. Stay tuned to Christpilgrimrest.com for more information on that.

The Puppet Ministry from Antioch Baptist Church came and put on a VERY entertaining and praise filled performance. This was part of the annual Homecoming Celebration that CPR shares with Galilee Baptist Church.

Sorry that we don't have more of the Homecoming service - but our "impromptu" cameraman was inspired and recorded all of this at once - so enjoy.

See you next Sunday!
