The pastor has been with the church since August 2004 after the other pastor, who was part time for 2 churches, was called to be full time in San Jose. I enjoy this church because it preaches the truth and has a well bonded church family. It is always clean and has different classes for different ages. The kids club did an awesome Christmas play recently and they always seem to have a good time. They have a nursery with a TV that is connected to a camera so they can see what's going on during service. They have 3 projection screens, 2 for the audience and one for the choir. The pastor has a good mixture of when to be hilarious and when to be serious. The music is lively and the musicians and choir are very anointed. Overall, i think this is a great church.

I really thought I had previously left a review, but I might be mistaking it with the review I…read moreposted for Community Christian's other campus. Either way, here we go! I've been attending since late 2010/early 2011 and have been a member for some time now, so I think I've had enough time to marinate over my thoughts and feelings about Community Christian. As you can guess, it's likely to be a positive review since I've been in attendance for so long. One of the first few things that you notice when visiting Community Christian is exactly that.... the community. It sounds cliché, yes, but it's the truth and a common theme you'll find when talking to pretty much anyone in attendance. Smiles are real, hugs/handshakes/fist bumps are in abundance. Conversations are meaningful and filled with genuine interest. Meaning, when people ask "how're you doing?", they're actually interested in the real answer rather than just a "Oh, good good, and you?", response. Generosity is another thing you'll notice. The mission statement is "Helping people find their way back to God". This mission can only exist when generosity flows. Immediately your mind will go to $$$$, but that's not the only way to be generous. Something as simple as the food and coffee available on Sunday mornings goes a long way. There is a team of dedicated volunteers who prepare many many hot meal options, snacks, beverages, etc., on Sunday mornings. Rarely will you encounter a cliché single pink box of donuts. (But when the kitchen staff allow themselves to take a week off, there ain't nothing wrong with some doughy goodness!!!) In addition to food on Sunday mornings, Community Christian partners with Martha's Kitchen on Thursday evenings to provide hot to-go meals to anyone who shows up, no questions asked. (As long as supplies last) That's all within the realm of the church campus. If you look outward, the desire to serve time local community is HUGE! Teacher gift baskets for nearby school teachers, regular communication with city leaders to help figure out how to best serve the residents of Morgan Hill, maintenance projects to help clean up and beautify various areas in town. The list goes on! Recently with our previous pastor stepping down to pursue other ministry opportunities, Will Sawkins stepped into the role of lead Pastor and hasn't missed a beat yet! The atmosphere has been really energetic since he stepped into the role and there has been a steady stream of new faces coming every week. (Many of them returning and becoming "familiar faces", yay!) Being one of the drummers on the worship team, I'm biased towards the music ministry and love it. Since music is very subjective, you'll just have to come have a listen for yourself. If I missed something I will update my post. I'm sure there's plenty I missed right now.
