Pastor's Musings: Central's Pastoral E-Letter: August 2, 2013

Dear Central Family,

Can I just tell you, I LOVE THIS CHURCH! Thank you for making this a place where lives can be impacted for eternity!

We are so thankful for what God continues to do to allow us to fulfill the vision He has given to us. Last week we extended the love of Christ to over 200 children through Kids Camp, and the Worship Center was packed with kids and parents last Sunday for the Kids Camp Closing Production during the 11:00 Service.

This week, we were able to send off a team of energized, passionate followers of Jesus to serve in Brazil for a week of impact! (For Brazil updates, like Central’s Facebook page.)

Add to this, we are now putting final touches on Kids Camp Trenton which will be held August 19 to 23. We are packing and taking Kingdom Rock on the road using the facilities of the First Baptist Church of Trenton! We could use your help in these ways:

1. We need volunteers! Contact Stephanie Earle, Director of Student Ministry, at searle@cbcnj.org to be part of the team!

2. We need new backpacks and school supplies! Please drop them off at the bin in Fellowship Mall.

Other upcoming events:

~Interested in learning more about Central? Want to become a member?

This Sunday we will continue our series of Life in the Kingdom as we learn what Jesus tells us about what it means to live in His kingdom. I will be teaching on Saturday night at 6 pm and Sunday morning at both 9:30 and 11:00 Modern Services. Jared Alcántara our Teaching Pastor will be teaching in the 9:30 Classic and 11:00 Unplugged services. So I hope you will come and worship with us as we learn how to be true followers of the King.

See you this weekend!

Pastor Gay
