Hello from Melinda!
Hello, Friends!
A year ago, I had no idea that I would be here – at Central – getting to serve God alongside you all (note I say you all, not y’all even though I hail from the South. I had no idea that my dream ministry position would ever come my way – to be an associate pastor for spiritual formation and pastoral care.
But what I did know, then and now… God calls us to new life in Christ – every day, not just in one season, but for all the seasons of our lives. The question is: will we be open and respond to that new life?
I am impressed with how God’s Spirit has shown up in my life, time and time again. The fact that I am getting to be with you, beginning in the Easter season, the season of New Life, is fitting for all of us.
Jesus has called us friends… from John 15:15, we hear, 15 I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing, but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father.
I love people, I love sharing good things with people, and I love nurturing others. And, once you are in my heart, it is for always. I hope you will consider me your friend!

Welcome new member, Noelle Cohan!
Noelle Cohan joined the Central family this past Sunday. Noelle has been attending traditional worship (both 8:00 and 10:30) weekly for the past month-and-a-half, has begun attending the Ecclesia Sunday School class, and says that she immediate felt “at home” here the moment she began attending. Welcome Noelle!
Liturgists Needed
Wanted: Liturgists
Central is looking for more liturgists to serve in either Traditional or Contemporary worship. Liturgists help usher people into a worshipful mindset by leading a prepared Call to Worship during the service. They also write their own invocation prayer that is read before the Lord’s prayer. Training available! For more information, contact Pastor Michael.
