CCC Serving Metro Denver
Flourish: July 30, 2025
Good afternoon Centennial! How about that cool weather we’ve been having along with a little rain! What a blessing, FALL is just around the corner! And with Fall come 2 important events! North Littleton Promise’s Fiesta 2025 and the Autumn Jubilee for Love INC! I have important info on both here and hope that you will plan to attend either one or both of these great events.
But first let me tell you about a visit we are going to have on Sunday, September 7th! Maureen Shannon the executive director for North Littleton Promise will be visiting CCC and we will be hosting her at a lunch after the service. This is a terrific opportunity to learn a little more about NLP, but to also enjoy a lunch with Maureen and the Flourish Team! We would love to have you join us. Please RSVP to https://centcov.elexiochms.com/external/form/d14e28df-c5fd-428a-ad02-b37824e13f65 Or use this QR code:
And then on Friday, September 19th at 6 pm is the North Littleton Promise Fiesta 2025.
Please sign up for your free ticket as a guest of Centennial!
Love INC (In the name of Christ) is planning their Autumn Jubilee on Friday, October 3 from 6-8 pm. Further details on attendance will be forthcoming but please put it on your calendars. This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate God’s provision to Love INC and their work in our community. And that work does not occur without you! Here’s a list of opportunities to volunteer at Love INC.
Additionally, would your life group like to provide meals for IMPACT? IMPACT classes are the life affirming and uplifting classes offered on Thursday evenings to clients of Love INC as well as members of the surrounding towns of Littleton, Englewood, Highlands Ranch and Centennial. As most of the attendees come right after work dinner is provided by various churches and church groups that support Love INC. There’s been considerable interest in providing the meals, with only 4 time slots still available, in late September and late October.

The Master’s Apprentice Program, is beginning Session 5 of 2025 this week! Approximately 60 students will begin their soft skills classes in Career Preparation, Construction Math, Financial Literacy and excellent work attitudes and perspectives. Additional workshops are offered in woodshop, electrical and plumbing. Other key activities include on site visits to employer worksites. All these activities and classes are designed to help the students, usually 20-30 year olds identify which construction trade they are most interested in obtaining an apprenticeship in, such as plumbing, hvac, electrical or welding. Apprenticeships generally run 4 years, include paid employment and paid schooling so this sets the students off on a solid career path (without school loans!)
2 things:
Please pray for the students that their hearts would be softened by the devotional messages that they will hear every morning before classes begin. And that they will be open to the work of the Holy Spirit.
Also, we have 7 CCC attender/members who coach, mentor or conduct practice interviews with the students. There are 4 interview days during every session. If you have even one morning or afternoon available and can aid with 15 minute interviews (questions provided) to give the students practical experience in interviewing, Master’s Apprentice welcomes your assistance. Contact the Flourish Team at flourish@centcov.org A member of the Flourish team will reach out and put you in contact with the program and the staff member setting up interviews. Check out the video below if you want to know what the Master’s Apprentice is.
