YOU ARE WELCOME AT CENTRAL!
A Bit of Background
The year 2018 signifies 150 years of making the Gospel of Jesus Christ central, serving the community a priority, and striving for the kind of change that
brings the kingdom-come!
We are an intergenerational, diverse community that welcomes all people as Jesus did. We value worship that draws eyes toward God, community that inspires relationships, service that supports the neighborhood, and learning that draws us closer to Him.
We are honored to be a body of Christ's church and we are excited for what God has in store for the next 150 years!
WHAT WE DO
WORSHIP
We have two worship services in two different styles.
The 9:15am worship service is contemporary in nature and takes place in our Friendship Hall (1st floor). In this service, you will find a band leading contemporary christian music, gospel music, and contemporary hymns, as well as teams leading worship dance, worship drama, and more! This service also has a space set up for kids to participate in worship through quiet play - we call it the "prayground"!
The 11am worship service is traditional in nature and takes place in our sanctuary (2nd floor). In this service, you will find a beautiful organ, a choir, and sometimes even a bell choir! The Tiffany stained-glass windows and decor make worship in this space visually stunning. Occasionally the dance team will participate in this service.
Both services are important to the life of this church community! The Holy Spirit is present in the hearts of the people who gather together each Sunday to celebrate what God has done & is still doing.
We invite you to try out both! Come as you are.
