Christ Community Church has been an important part of the city of Concord, CA for over 75 years. We have a rich history of vibrant care for the community, including 20 years of Manna Ministry, a weekly food pantry and hot meal gathering in the Monument Corridor.

In 2022, we sold the property that had housed our ministries for over 70 years and became a church of "new tents!" We are committed to living our individual and corporate lives in the Way of Jesus as we are defined by our desire for God's Kingdom to come and God's will be done in Concord as it is in heaven.

Christ Community Church is a faith family of loving welcome and compassionate care. We are a diverse community, reflecting the East Bay neighborhoods where we live and serve.
