Leading with Boldness
Students at CCS are encouraged to volunteer to lead devotion. Seeing these young boys and girls lead their peers and be bold in their faith is so amazing to watch! God is moving and working in the hearts of our students and we cannot wait to see what they will do for the kingdom as they continue to learn, grow, and serve.
