We can’t wait to meet you!

We are so glad you are curious about worship and ministry at Central. If you’d like to learn more about us, please take a moment to watch the video below. We know that your first time at any church may bring up questions, so we tried to provide some answers below!

  • There will be something for everyone during your time with us this morning. Our 9:30 a.m. service consists of “the best of both worlds” traditional and contemporary music from our praise band “Spirit Rising”, our Chancel Choir, and our Handbell Choirs. Children are welcome and encouraged to participate in worship, though young children have some special opportunities that families can choose from during the service. Worship lasts about an hour and is filled with an intentional variety of music, scripture, a sermon, prayers, sacraments, and other ways we connect with God. There are moments for the congregation to participate and opportunities to be quiet and reflect.

  • We believe that by participating in worship we learn to worship. Children are always welcome in services at Central. We also offer programming for those aged zero-6th grade. More information about those programs can be found here.

    We also offer changing tables located in the nursery and accessible restroom. If you need a quiet space to calm or nurse your child, ask an usher or staff member who can direct you to a comfortable location.

    We want you to know that we care deeply about the safety of our children. All of our program staff and volunteers are checked for child abuse clearances and participate in a special training in child protection we developed at the church. If you would like to see our policy, please ask a staff member and we are happy to provide it.

  • We hope you’ll consider staying after the service to introduce yourself to Pastor Josh, and members of Central. Each week we gather immediately after the service for Cafe Central, a time of fellowship & refreshments.

    Following Cafe Central we have our Faith Formation Hour, where we offer additional programming for all ages. Click here to learn more.

  • There is always something happening at Central! Take a look at our Upcoming Events and Program Guide to see what might be a good fit for you.

All are welcome here.

We want you to feel comfortable and free to experience God’s presence when you are with us—
