VISION OCCUPY CAMPAIGN
INSPIRING YOUR What an Awesome God we serve! For more than a decade we have seen God move in mighty ways at C3 Church. Our journey has been an exciting one and once again God is leading us, as a body of believers, to launch out in faith and fulfill the vision He has given us by occupying our new land & building. God instructs us in Numbers 33:53 to take possession of the land and settle it,
because He has given it to us to occupy. We believe occupying the new land is the Lord’s next step for us. Therefore, C3 is embarking on the OCCUPY campaign. Although in the physical realm it may seem to be about a building, in the spiritual realm it is about reaching more people for Jesus Christ and helping the spiritually hungry experience God. It is an exciting time as we move forward on the journey God has for us! We are
R BEST LIFE asking you to prayerfully seek the Lord in how He would have you be involved and support OCCUPY! Working through the people that make up C3 Church, more lives will be changed and the Kingdom of God will be advanced. Join us as we OCCUPY and help us fulfill the vision of C3 Church by enlarging our tents and reaching more people for Christ.
Ps Lorne & Kelly Tebbutt

YOUR BEST LIFE
CONNECTING WITH GOD AND WITH EACH OTHER
C3 Church has hundreds of congregations around the world that are bright, enthusiastic and relevant. Our message is one of faith, hope and love. We have a united vision to build the Church by connecting people to God, connecting people to people and also empoowering people for effective, joyful service. We believe in the Church gathered, united with one voice, one heart and one goal. C3 Church is a place where we call home, we create space and room for people to grow, worship and live their lives wholly for Christ C3 Church Calgary is a vibrant church serving the Calgary area. We have been built on the vision of providing “real hope for real people in a real world”. In asking, praying and searching God’s direction on the “how”; His plan has shifted our thinking. We began as a community church, Westhills Community Church,
serving our local area within the city of Calgary. As the vision expanded and broadened, we saw God wanting us to reach cities, Christian City Church. Now we see a nation turning to Christ. Strategically locating us on the Trans-Canada highway, in a rapidly expanding community, positions C3 Church as the gatekeepers for a city and a nation, a center and hub for God’s transforming love - C3 Center. C3 Church exists to be relevant in order to lead our generations to Jesus Christ. We are intentional in our focus to reach people, regardless of circumstances, lifestyles, culture or gender. Rather than hide from culture, we have chosen to embrace and transform it by connecting with people and showing them God’s unconditional love and timeless truths. Although our approach is anything but traditional, we believe in a
conservative theology, which produces “your best life”. In living our best lives together at C3 Church we’ve exceeded the capacity of our present facility. The ability to fulfill our vision has become limited by the size of our building. Our kids are housed in an outdoor tent, our youth have no place to call their own and our foyer is crowded every Sunday. Our staff works closely (in more ways than one) in overflowing office and workspaces. We are excited about the potential of reaching a nation with the powerful life changing Great News of Jesus Christ, equipping believers, ministering through prayer, individuals’ spiritual gifts and talents not just on Sundays but every day. Our new facility, C3 Center means: room to grow, paved parking, high visibility,
improved sound and lighting, larger and more secure kids space, designated youth area, an equipping school, a skateboard park, spacious café and greeting area, expanded office space, amazing conferences and events in a picturesque setting overlooking the majestic Canadian Rockies. Would you stand with us in reaching people, changing lives, making a difference in this great city? God is inviting us to join His plan and purposes for Calgary, Alberta, and Canada. God is moving in many ways through this nation, C3 Church is one unique expression of His Church.
God is at work in our Church and he is giving us an amazing opportunity to reach our community developing around us. Several new and exciting developments are currently planned for the area surrounding the C3 Centre: CONCEPTUAL SCHEME APPROVED: Bordeaux Developments mixed use family community of Harmony Park - 3500 homes PROPOSED DEVELOPMENTS: Rencor/ United joint venture - The Bingham Crossing conceptual scheme area is currently under consideration for development approvals by the Municipal District of Rocky View. The proposal covers 309 acres in land area and it has 3 components: Retail, Residential (450 Housing Units) and Open Space. Taradar Developments, community of Paradara Springs - upon completion, it will encompass a diverse mix of users: large side-by-side houses will accommodate families; three-tier retirement residences will offer independent living, assisted living and nursing home options; and a commercial core will provide residents and visitors with convenient amenities and boutique shopping. SUBDIVISION APPROVED: Countryside Estates of Springbank Creek by Devonian Properties.
BUILDING PLAN What do you see when you come to Church? Buildings, car parks, people? What you don’t see is the effort, the sacrifice, the sweat and toil of those that have gone before us; those who have built the today that was once the future.
but it will accommodate our growing community.
Our intention as we build the C3 Centre is to create a more balanced facility that will not only meet our current needs

As we take ground, it’s all about us moving forward into “your best life”. Our primary desire is to see our Church community discover a life that is the best it can be.
JOIN THE JOURNEY Do you believe: Developing a generous attitude can change lives-yours included? In the principle of sowing and reaping? Your life, including your finances, is in God’s hands? Our lives-time, treasure & talents are meant to glorify Him? God gives much to those who steward well? You can make a difference? Do you know: God as your provider? God has great plans for C3 Church? God is the giver and provider of every good & perfect gift? God loves a cheerful giver? God invites us to test Him in the area of giving? God opens the windows of heaven when you give? You may not believe and know all of these things; but God believes in you and knows who you are! The journey of generosity is a life long process of loving God, trusting Him in every area of your life and being obedient in these crucial days. As we grow in the knowledge of who He is; we begin to understand His purposes and
plans for our possessions, finances and treasures-and truly see Him as Lord of all. As the leaders of Rise & Build, we invite you to live generously, give extravagantly, see the mighty hand of God work in your finances and be a part of this incredible journey to Occupy! Gord & Joanne Cannon Leaders of Rise & Build
The calling on C3 Church is huge - God has called us to carry his presence to this generation. Our past is littered with faith building stories and if our present is any indication of our future; God will use our Church to change the landscape of Canadian culture. It is said that the road of life twists and turns and the two directions are never the same, yet our lessons come from the journey not the destination. The more we live this, the more we realize how true this is. Too often we find ourselves so pre
occupied by the destination that we forget the journey; so we invite you to join the journey. Here is your opportunity to partner with us as we move toward our future; to transition from a church of promise to a church of destiny, learning to live our best life as we journey forward as a family. We are a spirit powered, connect driven church and we believe that we’re heading into the greatest revival that this world has ever seen; and we invite you to join the journey.
Take possession of the land and settle in it, because I have given it to you to occupy. Numbers 33:53
CH_RCH can’t do it without U, so join the journey your best life 1009 Prominence Way SW Calgary AB, T3H 2B4 p 403 686 0608 f 403 686 0666 info@c3calgary.ca www.c3calgary.ca
