Welcome to CSBC

It is such a blessing to be able to worship together. God never intended for us to live our Christian lives in a vacuum. God’s plan for every believer is for us to be a part of a local body – a place to belong, and place to teach and be taught the Word of God, a place to encourage and be encouraged. We are thankful you have chosen to join us. If you are a guest, we are excited you are here! We prayed that you would come! We have prayed that God’s Word would speak into every heart. If you are a guest with us, please let us know you are here by filling out our digital guest card. We pray that God will bless you this weekend!

Jon, Olivia, Isaiah and Benaiah Solomon will be headed to Chile to serve as Intern Missionaries, their next necessary step to approval as career missionaries to a country that needs the Gospel. We will be sending them out from CSBC on Sunday evening, August 20.

16 Verses That Tell The Whole Story Continues

In our 6 p.m. Family Service tonight we continue “16 Verses That Tell The Whole Story,” a study of 16 key verses that stand as turning points in the Bible’s storyline. Children and adults are learning how God’s Word tells a single story about His glory and His grace.

New Griefshare Cycle Begins This Thursday

CSBC Outreach Teams

Join one of our teams tomorrow evening at 6:30 who will make home visits, write cards and letters, make phone calls of encouragement – all for the purpose of actively reaching and ministering to make a difference in the life of another person whom Jesus loves. We provide a meal for those who come at 6:00. Register by texting “outreach” to the church number, 417.889.1999.

Thank You For Your Faithful Giving

We want to encourage everyone to be faithful with their tithes and offerings.

You can give:

By using dropping your offering envelopes into the offering boxes in the back of the auditorium and on the walls in the lobby

Through the website at mycsbc.com

On the Realm Connect app

Through the mail – our offering envelopes are postage paid – meaning you can drop your offering in the mail without a stamp. If you would like us to send you envelopes to use during this season, just call the church office and we will be happy to put them in the mail to you asap.

Thank you so much for your faithfulness in giving to the Lord

Realm Connect – Our Church App

Our Realm Connect App allows us to send out announcements electronically as needed, rather than waiting for Sunday to publish them in the bulletin. The Connect App also allows you to be faithful with your giving. Realm Connect allows us to do many things more efficiently and effectively, like managing events, group attendance and communications and so much more! If you don’t have the Realm Connect app, send an email to Info@mycsbc.com We will send a link to the Realm Connect app.
