Common Grounds

A church family for Colby Community College

A monthly on-campus welcome, homemade treats, and a real partnership with CCC — here's our collegiate ministry.

A Real Partnership

Woven into Colby Community College

First Presbyterian's connection to Colby Community College isn't a once-a-year outreach event — it's part of who we are. Several members of our congregation serve as CCC faculty and staff, and our care for students, faculty, and staff shows up all year long.

Members serve CCC directly

Several of our own congregation members work at Colby Community College — this ministry grows out of real, everyday relationships.

Common Grounds

Homemade treats, right on campus

One Tuesday a month during the school year, we host “Common Grounds” in the CCC student union — homemade treats and beverages, served from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM, with no strings attached. It's simply a chance to offer students, faculty, and staff a warm, welcoming break in their day.

Supporting Students

The Trojan Food Pantry

We're proud to support the Trojan Food Pantry, an on-campus resource that helps CCC students facing food insecurity. Our Spiritual Life and Witness Committee plans these outreach and mission events on campus each month — Common Grounds and Trojan Food Pantry support among them.

A CCC student, faculty, or staff member? You're always welcome.

Join us on campus for Common Grounds, or come visit us on Sunday — no strings attached, just a genuine welcome.
