ABOUT C3.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
We live by our convictions, the core values that make us who we are. The Bible is our guide to life, not only because it is good, but because it is true. We want people to know Jesus in a fresh, personal way; to have a real-time connection with God. We are a hospitable people – generous and fun and full of life. We welcome you and your family to join us, anytime.

Sex is a gift from God for procreation and unity, and it is only appropriate within and designed for marriage.
SAVE
We are passionate about reaching out beyond the four walls of the church in order to introduce people to Christ. Multiple times a week with outreaches, worship services and a strong evangelical message, we invite people to discover the hope, love, and transformation that comes out of a relationship with God.
CONNECT
Once saved, we believe it’s vital to stay connected to the body of Christ, the Church. For this reason, an inclusive and alive community is ingrained in C3 Blenheim’s culture. Every week we run connect groups and prayer meetings that gather people to do life together, and build community inside the church.
DISCIPLE
Leaders take us where we cannot go on our own. We encourage every church member to be discipled so they can grow and develop as a follower of Jesus. In turn, this overflows into discipling others. We are passionate about developing kingdom leaders that can rise up and take the lead in the church, the marketplace, families and communities.
INFLUENCE
God has a plan and purpose for all people. He has given us all gifts to make a difference in this world by serving Him and each other. There are opportunities for every church member to step into the plans and purposes of God by being involved in the advancement of his kingdom, to be an influencer!
