Volunteer at CPC
At CPC there are plenty of opportunities to use your talents, follow your passion or just dig in and help get things done. We always welcome anyone with a desire to serve the Lord by serving others, anyday, anytime.
On Sundays
Music
Music is a vital part of worship at CPC. Our two morning services have different styles of music:
-
At our first service you’ll listen to contemporary, upbeat praise & worship songs
-
Our second service appeals to those who love the hymns sung by generations before us.
-
Each service features excellent instrumental music as well.
Guest artists renowned all over San Diego perform at CPC in our annual concert series, and special performers at Christmas and Easter lift our souls in those special seasons.
You’re invited to be part of the wide variety of musical offerings to praise & worship God here! If you are a soprano, alto, tenor, or bass; can play woodwinds, brass, strings, guitar or percussion consider joining:
