The purpose of the CCEA hiking ministry is to create a fellowship opportunity in a casual recreational setting where believers can get to know other Christians in a meaningful way while building each other up in our walk with the Lord. Our focus is to give everyone an enjoyable hiking experience for all ability levels, and encourage participants to invite their non-believing friends to join us.
In order to be sensitive to some of our church members' physical limitations, we will incorporate several shorter and physically less demanding hikes as well as encourage participants to eat together after the hike.

He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof
For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
Thou, even thou, art LORD alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.
