Pre-Filled Easter Eggs Needed

During our Easter Eggstravaganza, we’re going to do a bunch of egg hunts throughout the morning and that’s going to require hundreds and hundreds of plastic eggs stuffed with goodies. So over the next couple of weeks, we’re asking our church community to purchase plastic eggs with PRE-WRAPPED candies or fun toys inside of them. If you’re able and willing to help, go ahead and make the purchase and bring them in on Sunday mornings between now and 3/24. 

Some examples of what we're looking for: click here for Oriental Trading's options for pre-wrapped candies or fun small toys.  Or you can click here for an Amazon page full of some fun options of pre-wrapped candies or small toys. 

Good Friday Service - March 29

We’ll bring both campuses together at our North Chatham campus for a Good Friday service. Through scripture, dramatizations, and hymns with the CCC Choir, we'll learn more about the true nature of Jesus and his ultimate sacrifice on the cross for us.

Childcare will be provided for kids from birth to 3 years old. For the livestream, click here

Easter Eggstravaganza - March 30

Come be a part of the first-ever Easter Eggstravaganza! We'll have bounce houses, live chicks, bunnies, puppies, egg hunts, crafts, games and free treats. Do some good and have some fun as Chatham Community Church and local non-profits throw an Easter party for the whole family. Join us on Saturday, March 30th, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Chatham Mills, just north of the circle in Pittsboro.

Easter Services - March 31

Something happened 2,000 years ago that has changed more lives than anything else in history. Easter was the unleashing of God’s great redemption story into the world, full of grace and truth, and it’s big enough to gather you into it. Join us on Easter Sunday, March 31st, to enter in and celebrate the victory of God.

Tech-Healthy Family Workshop - April 7 & 14

Join us at our North Chatham campus on April 7th and 14th at 5:30 for a  2-part workshop series where you will learn strategies to keep your kids safe online. This is open to the community so invite a friend from work or a neighbor to join us. 

Please RSVP at rsvp@chathamchurch.org so we can plan for enough materials and let us know if you will need childcare. 

Bring It Discussion Group

What questions, thoughts, and wonderings do you wrestle with OR maybe you don’t even know what questions to ask! Let’s dialogue about faith, scripture, and the teachings of Jesus.

Join retired pastors Terry Dorsey and Brian Emmet for a friendly, spirited, and free-wheeling conversation about whatever questions you'd like to raise. We'll meet every Sunday in March (except 3/31, that's Easter!), from 1130-1230 at NCH. Free pizza and drinks!

We won't tell you what to think but will work instead on helping you know how to think, Biblically and faithfully. Everyone and all questions welcome -- and even if you don't have a burning question, you may well enjoy the lively give-and-take.

Note: The responses offered by Bring It! represent the opinions and perspectives of Terry and Brian alone, and should not be interpreted as representing the positions of Chatham Community Church or its leaders.

Two Service Times at Pittsboro Campus - March 3

Over the last 12 months, our community at Pittsboro has grown by close to 30%. Almost every Sunday in January, we've had to add more chairs and ask people to move so we could make space for those who were arriving. As more people move to Pittsboro, there is a need for more opportunities for them to encounter God.

Starting March 3rd, we will have two services at PBO, one at 9:00 and one at 10:30 am.  We are an all y’all church and this is an invitation for all of us to engage in. Over the next few weeks, we’ll talk more about what it’s going to look like and how we might all participate in what God is doing in PBO this season.

The Harbor women’s Bible study will begin weekly meetings on Wednesday, September 13th at NCH, from 9:00-11:00 a.m. If you’re interested in attending - please email harbor@chathamchurch.orgChildcare is available upon request.

Join a Small Group

At CCC, we’re all about connecting people to God and to each other and one of the ways we do that is through small groups.

If you’re new to small groups, they’re groups of 6-16 people who meet weekly in homes all over Chatham County or over Zoom for community, connection, a discussion of the Scriptures, and prayer.   

For more information about some of the small groups that are looking to welcome new members this fall, click here. 

Get Help/Give Help

Since its inception a couple of years ago, the Disaster and Relief Response Team (DARRT) has mowed lawns, repaired gutters, repaired dryers, taken care of dogs, repaired front steps, and much more – often for the widows, seniors, or disabled in our community.

If you love that our church makes this kind of a difference in people’s lives, we’d love to have you join this team. Or if you have a need for DARRT assistance, we'd love to help you. For more information, email helpdarrt@chathamchurch.org. 

Mosaic Student Ministry

Mosaic meets on Sunday nights from 5:30-7:00. All students in middle and high school are welcome! We’ll start our service together, then we’ll break up into high school and middle school groups for a message and then into breakout groups for discussion.
