Ramp at the entrance and a stairlift to the fellowship hall.
Grace and peace be unto you, in the wonderful Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
It is a blessing and an honor to welcome you. We’re grateful you’ve taken a moment to connect with us, and we pray that what you see, hear, and experience here will strengthen your walk with the Lord.
Whether you are a long-standing believer, newly saved, or prayerfully seeking direction, know that the love of Christ reaches every heart and every home. There is a place for you at Cotton Temple, and we would count it a privilege to worship, grow, and serve alongside you.
Be strengthened, be encouraged, and continue to trust God for greater.
Pastor Mario J. Moody Sr.
This year’s theme from the Church of God in Christ
“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.” John 4:34
Presiding Bishop J. Drew Sheard has called the Church of God in Christ to finish the work God has given us. At Cotton Temple, we answer that call through worship, prayer, outreach and serving our Jersey City neighbors.
From the choir loft to the food line, every member has gifts to give. Our ministries are where faith turns into fellowship and service.

Young People Willing Workers: worship, Bible teaching and fellowship that help young people grow in faith and purpose.
Prayer, discipleship, and sisterhood, led by First Lady Evangelist Loran Y. Moody.
Your tithes and offerings keep the food ministry, youth programs and Sunday worship going. Give by Zelle, through Givelify, or by check in the mail.
