Thank You Central!
Thank you all for the outpouring of love and support for our family as we transition into this next season of life. Your prayers, gifts, and time have blessed us. As Christ stays central at Central, may God continue to move in the years to come by the power of the Holy Spirit. Shalom! In Christ’s Love, The Seger Family
Attendance
Those of you who have been around for a while may remember signing your name on the attendance pads on Sunday mornings. We stopped this practice during the pandemic and feel it is time to bring it back! Starting July 9th, we will have attendance pads on the pews for you to “sign in.” By doing this, it will help us know who is here and who we need to reach out too. If you have any questions, please see an usher or contact the church office at 765-962-8543.
Community Food Pantry Sunday is Next Sunday!
Community Food Pantry Sunday is the second Sunday of the month. The pantry needs our contributions of food and other necessities.

Simply mark them for “Food Pantry” and place in the offering plate.
