Our Vision
We envision the CBCCP to be a full service 21st century church that excels in producing generations of disciples and Christian workers, taking advantage of our cultural & language distinctives and proximity to the University, following our threefold mission: exaltation of Jesus Christ, edification of believers, and evangelization of the world.
The CBCCP will be a church where:
-
Worship is a profound and life-transforming encounter with the living God in an awe-inspiring and joy-filled setting.
-
Members, from different languages (especially, English, Mandarin & Cantonese), generations, and cultural backgrounds, come to worship God, love one another, respect each other and live in unity in Christ (John 13:34-35).
-
The hurting, the confused, and the successful kinsmen can find love, acceptance, help, hope, forgiveness, guidance, renewal, encouragement, and challenge to live the abundant life.
-
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached to tens of thousands of Chinese and other residents in the metropolitan Washington DC area, with an emphasis to reach students & young professionals. (while they are relatively receptive and less entangled in things of the world, e.g. materialism, affluence, etc.)
-
Every member reads, loves, and obeys the Word of God, and all the leaders and coworkers love the Lord devotedly, serve Him faithfully, and care for others unselfishly.
-
Every member is discipled into spiritual maturity and becomes disciple-makers of Jesus Christ through Bible studies, prayer groups, cell groups, fellowship, seminars, and retreats.
-
All members are equipped for significant ministries by helping them discover the gifts and talents God gave them and are empowered for a personal life mission in the world.
-
Full-time missionaries, Christian workers and members (on short-term missions projects) are continually sent out all around the world.
-
Parents are encouraged to be teachers, children & teens are nurtured through intergenerational/ family-based ministries to build lasting Christian heritage. (Deut 6:1-9; Joel 1:3)
- Sister churches are planted and mission churches are adopted continually.
