We attend the Saturday evening services and the music just speaks to my soul! They don't judge those who enter their doors so everyone can enter and feel God's presence. The bible is preached here and you can look up the scriptures for yourself and verify what is being taught. They don't pick and choose which ones to believe and not believe. Love is mentioned 200 times in the Old Testament and you definitely feel love in this church. If you are looking for a church home, come try this church out as I don't think you will be disappointed.

My husband and I moved away in May and of all the things I miss, I miss this place the most. If you want a message without the "HELL, FIRE AND BRIMSTONE" method, you found it here. The way the message is delivered is so aesthetic. I FELT the message, I received the message. I've been to a variety of different churches in search of a connection my whole life (48 years) and I finally found it at COR. Pastor Scott and Pastor Adam are truly amazing in the way they share the message. There are so many activities and opportunities for someone to stay connected. I would definitely recommend this church to anyone who has never felt as if they "belonged" in any other churches. Welcome home.

After seeing the engaged and involved parish, meeting a handful of really nice people after Mass,…read moreand getting a hall of fame homily from the wise Fr. Tom, I have to say that I'm inspired to come back to my Catholic roots. This is a beautiful church, friendly people, the 10:00am Mass has enough kids to fill Noah's Arc, and they get a chance to drop off their "offering" before communion -- this is a great idea, because it gets kids thinking about giving back at an early age. What a peaceful place, a reverent place, and at the end of the day, a place where Jesus is truly present, body, blood, soul and divinity every time Mass is offered. the 5th star was earned when I saw their adoration chapel-- not only was it beautiful, it was full of people. What a thriving parish! I'll be back Fr! (do you guys have a foursquare checkin for confessionals? I just don't want everyone to know when and how frequent I'm there ;)

It was the middle of July but I could hardly tell thanks to well-functioning AC (it probably didn't hurt that I was SEVERELY distracted with getting married). The staff was great and the facilities immaculate. Highly recommend as a wedding venue for those looking for a Catholic wedding. Can't speak to the Sunday service, but at the very least you'll be entertained by the stunning decor.

Sights, make me pleased to know that I am strong, courageous, a woman, and I should have the equality of Gods compassion as well, even though I am "Black", wonderfully, yet fearfully made. She has never once made me feel bad about my color, differences, challenges, my background, and always have given the upmost care and hospitality. I love the office staff, the pantry, and the area (the atmosphere alone helps to bring healing for all believers). If you want to succeed and overcome Mamath this is the place to be.

Most people don't realize that this church is one of three area buildings designed by Frank Lloyd…read moreWright (probably the most well-known architect in the US). It may not be too exciting from the outside during the day, but at night its 'steeple of light' pierces the night sky and creates a temporary, nocturnal landmark on KC's skyline. I can not comment on the Church that is housed in this structure, but this building is a landmark...one that usually goes unnoticed. A short history and info from Wikipedia: "In April 1940, Community Christian Church came to Wright and asked him to design a new building for them after a fire had destroyed their last church. Wright based his design on a parallelogram including some features previously conceived for his last building for Johnson Wax Company, along with one additional unique feature: a spire of light. Due to high building costs, the scale of the church was reduced during construction. The auditorium was cut back from a planned 1,200 seats to 900 seats, many details were eliminated, and the building was sheathed in gunite, a form of lightweight concrete, over Wright's objections. The spire of light also could not be built and illuminated due to technical limitations of the times. However, the church was dedicated on January 4, 1942 and served the congregation well. In 1994, the Spire of Light was finally completed as planned. The components are housed on the church roof inside of a perforated dome on the building's northwestern corner. The spire is created by four 16" xenon bulbs ignited by 40,000 volts of electricity, then, in combination with a parabolic reflector, produces 300 million candlepower of illumination in a near perfect column. The spire can be seen for miles around Kansas City, and reportedly can be spotted 10 miles north of the Plaza, depending on conditions. It has been calculated to stop at least 3 miles up above the earth, about half the maximum height at which jet airplanes fly."

This is smaller multi-generational congregation that feels like a family. An unapologetically progressive and welcoming family, mind you, but a family nonetheless. Pastor Heidi it thoughtful, personable and you can tell is loved by and loves this group of folks who gather together. This church oh so reminds me of the church of my youth, filled with people who yearn for the church to be relevant and energized. Also check out the many community programs that they offer out of their GORGEOUS facility. I was able to spend worship with them and it is a pretty standard traditional service with meaningful prayers a wonderful energy about them. If you are looking for a techno-emergenty kind of experience this is not the place, but if you want a warm, generous community add Central Presbyterian to your short list. DISCLAIMER: Yes, I give every church FIVE STARS not because every church is superfantablous, but every church that I will review can certainly be a FIVER to someone. I will never review a church that I would not be willing to try myself if I were looking. No need to bad mouth freaky-scary churches because they are uh, well, freaky and scary.
