We
are a community of diverse people coming together in service
and hospitality for each other, offering and receiving care
and compassion in all we do. Being a small but active community
church allows us to serve, pray, and worship together, embracing
our differences and discovering acceptance in the process.
Our weekly worship service accepts everyone equally, respecting
each individual and their contribution to the worship celebration.
Additionally, we offer study, fellowship, and social gatherings
that meet throughout the week to nurture our faith, deepen
our relationships, enjoy each others' company, and encourage
us to serve others in the church and community when and where
needed.
Our
Friday Night on College program for the community and homeless
favors preparing and sharing food much like a family meal,
instilling a warmth and friendliness to the dinner guests.

Friday
Night on College
The Friday Night on College program began as a vision for
CAPC to reach out to the immediate neighborhood offering a
home style meal, worship, and other electives. What began
in 1997 serving 35 dinners today serves upwards to 100 meals
every Friday. Lead by four cooking teams with set recipes
for each team, the meal has offered the church and the wider
community opportunities to volunteer
to cook, and to share a meal in true community fashion. For
information on the Friday Night on College program or to donate
toward its expenses, call (510) 658-3665 or email.
[Online volunteer form coming someday.]
