The Cumberland Community
CCA is active in the community of south Cobb County, frequently having volunteer days and other events in order to help other less fortunate people. The elementary choir, Patriot Voices, and high school mission teams visit many churches, nursing homes, and area businesses spreading God's message through word and deed.
Cumberland students are also active in the global Christian community; junior and senior high school trips are not strictly for leisure or fun (though having fun is not prohibited), they are mission trips. The juniors travel to a major U.S. city for an "inner-city" experience. Seniors travel to a Caribbean island to share dramas and puppets in an evangelistic program. Cumberland also helps sponsor the Good Shepherd Christian School, a Christian school in Haiti. This includes paying the teacher's salaries and "tithing" a portion of our Walk-a-thon donations to help the school grow.

Famous quotes containing the word community:
“Agitators are a set of interfering, meddling people, who come down to some perfectly contented class of the community and sow the seeds of discontent amongst them. That is the reason why agitators are so absolutely necessary. Without them, in our incomplete state, there would be no advance towards civilisation.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
