CAP is an interdenominational organization that encourages people to share their faith and express it in action, and personal spiritual growth is an important part of the CAP volunteer experience.  To foster a spiritual environment, volunteers gather for prayer and reflection after dinner during the week. Also, houses are encouraged to invite a local minister to join them for dinner, and lead prayer to enhance their knowledge of the community and spiritual values in which they live.  Prayer is the glue that holds our communities together.

Here are some opportunities for spiritual growth at CAP:

Participate in daily house prayer 4 or 5 nights a week          

    Personal choice of worship on Sundays

                     Participate in Volunteer Retreats

                 Time for personal prayer, reflection and meditation

                                         Diverse prayer styles and beliefs, since CAP is

                                an interdenominational organization

What Is Spirituality?

A life giving force

The active presence of God in human life

Dialogue about faith, purposeful talk about spiritual matters

Purpose is to encourage one another in faith

Desire for one another to relate well with God, desire highest good for each other

Challenge is seeing Christ in each one here and in self

Willing to help, accept, respect, challenge, and share

Safe place to share without being judged

Praying for and with each other

CAP values spiritual growth and faith as part of volunteer experience,

commitment to prayer individually and together

Constant reminder of focus on God
