CPC offers contemporary worship services at 9:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. every Sunday. In addition, there are many other opportunites for adults to learn and grow together in Christ.
CPC offers Sunday School classes that are Bible centered and discussion oriented. Classes are offered on a variety of Biblical books and relevant topics. Listed below are our current Sunday School classes. Sunday School is held during both services, but some classes may be held only during one of the two services. See the current Sunday School schedule.
At CPC we are given wonderful opportunities to worship the Lord our God. The Celebration Ministry provides opportunities to be involved in corporate worship on Sunday mornings as a part of various musical groups. Together, this team serves as lead worshipers, encouraging the congregation to engage in a meaningful time of worshiping our God together as we sing, hear God's Word, and experience a sense of community with one another. For more information on this ministry, contact Ryan McMillen at 636.394.3337, ext. 112.

By God's grace, the CPC Friendship ministry, Friendship Class, will reach out in love to the greater St. Louis community and lead adults with special needs into a life changing relationship with Jesus Christ.

Each week, groups of adults with special needs will participate in a variety of learning experiences led by a team of gifted, trained, loving, and enthusiastic Friendship Class ministry team members in a creative, caring environment, which includes a Thursday night Friendship Class and a Sunday School Class.

What could I do to help the ministry?
First of all, prayerfully consider this ministry as a wonderful opportunity in which to use your spiritual gifts. A loving individual who is willing to be a friend to those with special needs doesn't need specialized training in this ministry. We learn together -- many times, the students are our teachers!
