The people of Central come from a wide
variety of backgrounds, walks of life and daily challenges in our homes,
at our workplaces
and in our neighborhoods. We gather for worship,
Bible study, fellowship, community [in small groups], and mutual
encouragement. We view corporate church life as a necessary
supplement to our personal spiritual disciplines and development.
We encourage our
people to become involved in:
-
large group worship times of celebration and teaching,
-
smaller educational hour classes and various ministries to
different groups [men, women, mothers of preschoolers {MOPS},
Promiseland Preschool, single adults, ] for interactive Christian
life learning, fellowship and service,
-
Growth Groups [small groups] for caring for one another and
reaching out to the unchurched, and
one-on-one mentoring and leadership training opportunities.
