Making Room
Making Room
Jose Abaroa // Lead Pastor
“Over thirty years ago, 43 people gathered for the first-ever Cypress Creek Church gathering, and the vision was set to Build a Community, Change a City, and Reach a Country and World. As we continue to build this community, we are not going to measure our growth by mere size but by strength. So, although moving to a third gathering on August 20th will open up more room for families to gather on Sunday mornings, my hope is that we will continue to meet together in Community Groups where we can grow with one another in our faith, give to one another as we share life together, and live on mission. My hope is not only that we increase our capacity for people in our large Living Room on Sunday mornings, but that we would move into the smaller living rooms in our homes through Community Groups all over our community! For that is where we can truly live life together!”
