Christ Community Covenant Church (commonly known as 4Cs) is a church committed to developing a warm and friendly church community, and a Sunday celebration experience in which you can connect with and grow closer to God.

We have many areas for you and your family to connect. There is worship and ministry geared for every age. Our desire is that you feel at home, make new friends, and grow spiritually in new and exciting ways.

Our Vision

We envision Christ Community Covenant Church as a community of believers, but open to anyone searching for the truth. Through the leading of the Holy Spirit, we desire to listen well to the Lord’s voice, through prayer and wrestling with the truths of His Word. As we listen, we are drawn into the current of discipleship that gently carries us from newness in Jesus to fullness in Jesus.

Our Mission

Our mission at 4Cs is to be a 100-fold, family-focused church. growing

The 100-fold church draws her inspiration from the Parable of the Seeds and Soil in Mark 4:3-20 and parallels. In this Kingdom parable, Jesus describes the spreading of the Word in the hearts of mankind as the sowing of seeds onto various conditions of soil. Three conditions made it impossible for the seed to grow and produce fruit: hardness of heart, shallowness of faith and worries and deceit of the world. Contrasted with this sadness is the hope of good soil, hearts prepared to enjoy a miraculous harvest of God; thirty, sixty to even one hundred fold. A great good deed of divine proportions that none can mistake for anything but the handiwork of God. A 100-fold Church is comprised of at least the following five paired characteristics.

  • Christ-centered & Spirit led
  • Externally focused & Kingdom driven
  • Abounding in Grace & Bold in truth
  • Socially concerned & Culturally transforming
  • Loving unconditionally & Radically obedient

Our Story

In May 1988, Arvada Covenant Church approved the planting of a new Covenant Church to be located in the northwest Arvada area and that July, the founding pastor, Gary Copeland, was named and the church plant temporarily began operating as Northwest Covenant Fellowship. Weekly Friday Night Fellowships were held at Arvada West High School.

During this time, a group of people interested in being part of the church began to emerge. In August, we selected Christ Community Covenant Church for the church name and held our first Sunday morning worship service at Arvada West High School on August 28th, with an initial attendance of 270.

By November of that year, we had doubled our attendance and moved into a leased space at 64th and Simms. The first service at our new 'home' was held on November 6th with an attendance of 557. In June of 1989, Christ Community Covenant Church was officially received into the Evangelical Covenant Church.

In 1991, 4Cs purchased 10 acres with buildings at 82nd and Simms, in unincorporated Jefferson County. The facility was built in 1973 for the Colorado Bible Church and the Arvada Christian School, an elementary secondary school. The first worship service in the new building at its present location was held on December 22nd.

Art Greco took over as our second pastor in September 1993 and served for eight years. Chuck Wysong assumed the role of Senior Pastor in December of 2001.

Desiring to impact a wider community, we sold the property at 82nd & Simms to North Jeffco Parks & Recreation in May 2002 and began the search for new property where a new church facility will be constructed. In January, 2003, during a special congregational meeting, approval was given by members for the purchase of the property on the northwest corner of 100th and Wadsworth.

In April 2005, Dave Scherrer assumed the role of interim Senior Pastor and was officially installed in March of 2006.

The APEX Parks and Recreation District now occupies the east half of the building at 82nd and Simms with dance and gymnastics programs. In January 2011, 4C's completed an extensive remodel of the west half of the building with the addition of office space, a remodeled auditorium and classrooms.

However, the remodel was so successful APEX decided it could the space and informed us that they would not be renewing our lease. That meant that as of February 1, 2014 we would no longer be meeting at 82nd and Simms.

So the search began for a new church home. Many options were considered, including the possibility of building at 100th and Garrison in Westminster. It was a road filled with many trials, much prayer and not a few disappointments. But we never lost our hope in God knowing that He had a purpose for all things. God did indeed have a purpose and answered our prayers by first drawing us closer to Himself and by providing a new location. In December of 2013, the Arvada Church of Christ property at 67th and Simms became the new home of 4Cs. We not only have a new church home, but new friends as we have partnered with ACoC while they consider the future God has for them.

Rejoicing in God's provision in the past, we look forward to our continued journey with Him as He leads us into the future.

The ECC (Evangelical Covenant Church)

Christ Community Covenant Church is a member of the Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC) denomination.

The Evangelical Covenant Church is a rapidly growing multiethnic denomination in the United States and Canada with ministries on five continents of the world. Founded in 1885 by Swedish immigrants, the ECC values the Bible as the word of God, the gift of God's grace and ever-deepening spiritual life that comes through a faith with Jesus Christ, the importance of extending God's love and compassion to a hurting world, and the strength that comes from unity within diversity.

The Evangelical Covenant Church is:

  • Evangelical, but not exclusive
  • Biblical, but not doctrinaire
  • Traditional, but not rigid
  • Congregational, but not independent

We are united by Christ in a holy covenant of churches empowered by the Holy Spirit to obey the great commandments and the great commission: to love God with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind, to love our neighbors as ourselves, and to go into all the world and make disciples.

We agree together to:

  • Cultivate communities of worship committed to: prayer, preaching, and study of the word; the celebration of the sacraments; and fellowship across gender, race, age, culture, and class.
  • Equip loving, giving, growing Christians to reach out with the good news of Jesus Christ - evangelizing the lost, ministering to those in need, and seeking justice for the oppressed.
