Where Jesus' name is truly blessed and praised . You can't help but open up your mouth and shout with joy up to the Father in heaven and bless His holy name. Oh how I love You Jesus!!!

This is an awesome place I was greeted at the front door and even treated like I was already a member. When I'm in town the will be my place of worship. Thank you Christian Fellowship. I felt so welcomed.

My mother went to this church for 30 years. She had put in multiple hours of service and thousands of dollars into this place and its people. When she passed away, these people wouldn’t even pay to get her cremated. Three weeks later, I had to apply for a pauper’s burial. Once the church leaders found out the application had been accepted, they offered to pay for her services. I let them know the arrangements have already been cleared, but asked if they would donate the money to me, as I needed financial assistance to get things settled after her passing. They scoffed and said nothing else! The leaders were in a hurry to have my mother’s memorial services and wouldn’t let me schedule it. She was still in the morgue for crying out loud! Till this day, I cannot understand how they could allow a devoted member of their church family, lie in a freezer for three weeks and not lift a finger to offer assistance. This experience has exposed the true nature and character of this establishment.

I visited during the midweek service and had a great time. The pastor and staff not only welcomed me but made me feel at home by establishing a conversation with me and it felt as if I already knew them from before I met them. Church worship team was awesome. It was a great experience and I was happy to part take in the worshipping to God. God bless this congregation and their Pastor and staff.

At grocery store asked the lady in front if I could pray for her while visiting Corpus today. She said she is good and attends CCCF and told Gina and I service times. I know where I will visit services tomorrow to praise and worship Jesus Christ.

I chose these photos to show the love of our Pastor and the love of our church, as well as the beauty of CCCF, which consists of a mix of different nations and people groups. We are a house with an amazing shepherd, a house of extraordinary praise and worship, a place where you have the opportunity to praise the Lord, receive the Lord, and receive prayer. It is a house where you can feel loved.

I knew I had found my new church home the first service I attended over twenty five years ago. I have never known such a man of God as Pastor Don Leavell is, preaching a life-giving, Christ-centered message, and then living it out. Pastor Don has a pastor's heart. He pours his life out for each member. We are learning to love others as he and his wife have consistently shown us what it looks like. If you have been feeling like there has to be more to Christianity than you have known - this is the church for you. You will grow, you will be strengthened in the Lord, you will be loved and learn to love others in a new measure. Hope you will come see us soon!

I love this church. I used to live in Corpus and attended a few times before I moved back home to the Valley. I was reminded recently of the moment I accepted Jesus and I wanted to come and leave a comment here. I was literally on the floor at home just crying. I was so lost. I picked up my phone and googled "church near me" and this was the first number that popped up. Being an atheist for most of my life, this was a weird thing for me to do but hey God just works like that sometimes. He is so awesome. I spoke to a female and she was so sweet. She invited me to service. I wish I remembered her name, she was actually out of town when I attended and I never got to meet her. But I remember when the pastor asked if anybody there would like to go up to the front to accept Jesus. I went and all the women in the church put their hands on me as the pastor prayed. It was the first time I remember feeling the Holy Spirit just so strongly. I was shaking. They were all so loving and kind and that moment changed my life. I hope one day I am able to come back here. You changed my life. You gave me a bible and helped me get through one of the roughest storms of my life. God bless you all.

Hello and God Bless You! My name is Maurice and this is my church home. My family and myself seriously love everything about my church. I've been a member of CCCF for 9yrs now. Pastor Don keeps us well grounded the message that is always centered around Jesus Christ. We have a lot of different types of ministries you can join and be apart of. That your children can come and be apart of. They can grow knowing so many different cultures as well. So there is a lot to do in our church, our communities, and also around the world. I love the fact that we not only help others in Corpus Christi, but also helps other globally and internationally around the world. There is a lot of room for growth for anyone who comes to our church. If you are ever wanting to come and visit... Come on by, we would love to fellowship with you! Have a blessed day!

I have experienced many churches in my 80 years. I find this one is the most exceptional! Has the most love in it! I truly feel the fellowship one desires when we attend worship. The congregation is a wonderful mix of the population of this country. I believe as much as 50 different national heritages are active in the group.

We have attended The Fellowship for over 20 years. The Love is genuine and the teaching is Bible-based and Christ Centered. They aren't afraid of messed up people who are willing to let Jesus heal. We have been supported 100% while raising our family, through the good, the bad, and the ugly. And I am blessed to often have the opportunity share Jesus' Love with others who need it. Join us!

If you are looking for your relationship with Christ to change and deepen...this is the place for you. If you are looking to grow in your walk with Christ...this is the place for you. If you are looking for family and a place to call home...this is the place for you. Christ centered messages. A family filled with Christ's love. A house filled with prayer, praise, and worship. My husband and I have called this place home for several years now and our lives have never been the same since :). And I tell you, our future kids will call this place home too ❤

The church building is big and wide lots of room for lots of people to come. There is a coffee bar in the lobby, attentive ushers, lots of community stuff hanging from the walls. Their lighting and visuals are awesome but their audio is lacking a bit of extra kick that us church people like. That little oomph, that basssssss. Very great experience nonetheless, and Corpus Christi is always a change of scenery.

Very good experience! Pastor Don is very nice and easy to understand when he is teaching the Bible. I have been back since the 1st Sunday I went! Although I have not made it my church home it would be a good place to go you are looking for one! God’s definitely in that church!

I truly appreciate the staff and congregation. My life and heart have been changed. My family has been changed. I have grown closer to Jesus and learned intimacy with Christ. The staff serve their hearts out. The worship is lead by the Spirit. If the Lord is leading you to this body and your heart is open to grow it will, or you’ll just be loved right into the hunger for it.

Cccf is the place I call home and the place where I have a family. No matter who you talk to and the new faces you meet everyone will show immense love and consideration. I have been a member for almost 3 years now and have not been left the same. A broken girl redeemed and changed! Still growing and maturing in the love and wisdom of God and I am so thankful for it all. The Christ centered message has allowed me to get to know God in an even deeper greater way everytime I go and am encouraged greatly to seek Christ in a deeper intimate way because the message of who He is and Is through us is so so good. Fruitful, life giving, and filled with hope! I am blessed by the messaging and the family there! I hope to see new faces continue to join us and share in the love of God ❣️

I moved here from California 22 years ago and the moment I walked into this church I knew I was home. The love of Jesus Christ was evident and the Word which was spoken at that time was on "Relationship", which is exactly what I needed to hear. It was life-changing! Donald G. Leavell, Sr. Pastor continues to speak the heart of God and I am blessed and grateful to be a member here.

The Fellowship is a wonderful place! Jesus is the center of our worship, prayer, and preaching. The love of Christ is not only taught, but is demonstrated. If you are feeling unloved today, you will leave this place knowing that Jesus loves you!! You will never be the same again. Blessings!

My family and I visited CCCF for the first today. We have two young daughters and we learned that they do not have a children’s program on the first Sunday of every month. We stayed as long as we could as we were unprepared to entertain the girls but 10+ people offered us help—stickers, crayons, there’s a room where Mamas can take their kids and listen to the message, etc.. everyone we met was so kind and genuinely welcoming. We will go again next week. If you’re on the fence or have already tried a lot of churches in the area (like we have)— don’t lose heart— absolutely check this place out.
