Where is the Church Located?
Christ Community is located at 1301 15th Street in Greeley. However, it's better described as being on 13th Avenue in-between 14th Street and 15th Street, directly across from Cameron Elementary School and a block from Greeley Central High School. Since visiting a church for the first time can be confusing and a bit overwhelming, we want to help you get acclimated before you even arrive, so that you enjoy your time with us and feel comfortable from the minute you arrive. Don't worry if you forget this information, since there are plenty of friendly faces waiting to welcome you, answer your questions, and point you in the right direction. The Welcome Center is directly inside the main front entrance facing 13th Avenue, but feel free to ask anyone wearing a name badge for help or directions. They'll be glad to assist you!

What Do I Wear?
You should know that we don't care how you dress at Christ Community; we simply want you to be able to worship and relate to God in a manner that feels right to you. So please come just as you are, whether that means wearing a suit and tie, a pair of comfortable jeans, or shorts and a t-shirt.
What Times are the Worship Gatherings?
We have three identical Christ Community "Live" services in our Worship Center each weekend: Saturdays at 6:00 pm and Sundays at 9:00 and 10:45 am. Each service features a worship band, authentic Bible teaching, and creative use of the arts. We also have Christo Vive, our Spanish-speaking video venue at 9:00 am and our VideoCafe at 10:45 am, both on Sundays in the Community Room. Both worship gatherings provide a smaller, more intimate environment with accoustic worship and a DVD of the Christ Community "Live" sermon.
Where Do I Park?
When you arrive, feel free to park in the parking lot on the north side of the building or directly in front of the main entrance on 13th Avenue. Since we're a downtown church, close-in parking is at a premium, but our church family knows that these parking spaces are for people just like you. We also have a shuttle bus that transports people to our campus from the parking lots at Greeley Central High School. Just park your car, walk to the side of the lot closest to 15th Street, and wait for the shuttle. It will drop you off at the front of the main entrance to our Worship Center and will pick you up after the service at this same location.
What if I'm Walking?
If you're walking, you may enter the facility through any of the side entrances. Directional signs are located throughout to point you to where you wish to go. If you arrive after worship begins, however, don't sweat it! You won't be singled out or be made to feel uncomfortable. Many of our regular attendees and members run late too. Just get your kids settled and enter the worship gathering in progress. An usher will help you find a seat located a comfortable distance from the stage and give you an Information Packet with details about our worship and the ministries going on for that week. Also know that while there will be a time when we encourage you to meet others around you, you will not be singled out as a visitor. Our desire is that you feel welcome without feeling awkward or embarrassed.

What Happens After Worship is Over?
After the service, feel free to hang out at the 15th Street Cafe, adjacent to the Worship Center in the south lobby. There are plenty of cafe tables and chairs and a few couches. Stop by the Welcome Center on the way, and you'll receive a special gift from us to you with no strings attached!
Many of our pastors normally hang around at the front of the Worship Center after worship or in the lobby. Feel free to introduce yourself if you'd like to make a personal connection. All of our pastors and staff want to provide a personal touch to their ministries, so don't be intimidated in doing this.
What if I Still Have Questions After I Visit?
Christ Community has lots of activities and programs for all ages and stages of life. Feel free to learn more by surfing this website or by reading the Information Packet you'll receive when you visit. Most things you'll read about in this packet will have the name of a contact person, along with their phone number and/or e-mail address, if you want more information. If you're not sure who to ask, send an email to Cheryl Jelinek, Director of Assimilation & Ministry Development at cherylj@cccgreeley.org. Cheryl oversees the teams of people that enjoy helping our many guests connect with our church and its ministries.
We hope you enjoy your visit, and we hope you'll want to make Christ Community your home church in Greeley!
