The weekend of June 6th, Converge churches across the country will be talking about and receiving an offering for church planting. The churches of CNC are invited and encouraged to participate.

Prior to his retirement from Temple Baptist Church (now Communitas Church) in Brainerd, MN, Bob Evan was researching historical documents for the church’s 130th anniversary. He came upon a number of “newsletters” and meeting minutes from the origins of the church. The newsletters were written by and to, other Swedish immigrants in the Brainerd area. And, they were written in Swedish.

2020 had challenges, discouragement, and change. But God works faithfully amidst the troubles and trials to bring us growth and to bring Himself glory.

That all changed the day I walked into the Winkin Rooster.” said Lead Pastor Mark Allen.
