Partner With CCSM

As we look towards 2025, we invite you to Imagine Together how God’s liberating love will work through us and with us in the season ahead, and we invite you to prayerfully dream how you might be part of this work.  Your pledge is more than a financial commitment; it is a response of gratitude for all that God has provided, and it’s a declaration of trust in what God is building here at CCSM.  We hope you’ll join us as we step into our exciting future together.

If you have any questions about the budget, please reach out to any member of the Finance CommitteeThank you for your thoughtful approach to your pledge to CCSM.



Embrace Our Future: Your 2025 Pledge

Matthew 25:35-36

"For I was hungry, and you fed me.  I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink.  I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home.
  I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me.  I was in prison, and you visited me."
