About CFC

This is church

If disciples are committed followers of Christ, then church should be a place where disciples can grow in that commitment.

That’s why, at CFC, we teach our members to learn and understand God’s Word. And it’s why we create welcoming communities–both locally and worldwide–to foster connection and growth. 

So whether you’re new to following Jesus or have walked with Him for years, here you can grow in love, knowledge, and understanding of God — and then you, too, can follow the CFC mission to make committed followers of Christ.

OUR APPROACH

Trustworthy Gospel

At CFC, scripture guides everything we do. That’s because it is as true and relevant today as the day it was written. So you can have confidence that in our teaching and ministry, God’s Word always has the final say.

“We were able to get involved in a community group and felt strong ties to the church early on. Those connections, along with the sound teaching at CFC, strengthen and challenge our faith.”

Nikelle Murphy

“I [feel] welcomed and at home, while also feeling challenged and encouraged by the teaching.”

Emily Pinero

“[CFC is] a church seeking to steward their resources well to disciple the flock and send people out to make more disciples.”

Peyton Taylor

“CFC is a Bible-believing, Bible-preaching church who loves people and loves Jesus above all. They intentionally create community and allow people to use their gifts for Gods glory.”

OUR STORY

This was never about us

This was always about an Almighty God — what He has done and what He has yet to do. CFC has simply been part of it.

So in 1992, when 40 people gathered in a tiny ski shop and Community Fellowship Church was born, it wasn’t about CFC’s story. It was about God’s story.

The story of God is one of rejection and redemption, of tearing down and building up. A story of faithfulness amid a corrupted people, seemingly irredeemable. Yet throughout history, God’s plan of redemption for His people has never been shaken. Instead, it was fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ, His own Son. And until we–His creation–become reunited with Him, we have yet to see it fully complete.

At CFC, we are dedicated – as we always have been – to learning and teaching the story of God through His flawless Word, then spreading it across Lancaster, PA, and around the world. Here, you can grow intimately in your walk with Christ and lead others to do the same. So others, like you, can be part of the story too.

OUR LEADERSHIP

Leaders who follow

You want to trust that your leaders are following Jesus. That’s why our leadership extends well beyond our pastoral team: Our pastors, elders, and ministry teams remain accountable to one another and the CMA denomination.

OUR PARTNERS

Ministry beyond our walls

At CFC, ministry includes far more than our church leadership and staff. Every follower of Jesus is called to be part of God’s mission. That’s why we joyfully partner with others on mission–people in our congregation, local ministries throughout Lancaster County, and global mission efforts worldwide. Together, we use our gifts and resources to advance the Kingdom—because we were never meant to do this alone.
