SPLASH!

 

So what do you do when you have a gigantic ship sitting on your stage that is an absolutely phenomenal visual effect?  You create a sermon series to go along with it for both the contemporary and classic worship services!

 

We have created a sermon series for four weeks in August called Splash!  Each Sunday, we will be looking at some “water narrative” from Scripture, and our staff preaching team will be examining some powerful lessons from the Word of God that will impact all of us!  So make plans to be present for a four-week series that everyone will be talking about for a while!   

 

Get ready to jump in!

 

Pastor Gay

 

P.S.  Also, while I have your attention, please mark Wednesday, September 8 on your calendar.  I am calling for an All Church Time of Prayer as we call upon the Lord in prayer and praise and ask Him to do supernatural things in our midst as we begin a new ministry year!  More details to come!

Ahoy there, Mateys! 

 

Sorry, High Seas Expedition is still in my blood as I sit to write this!  We had a powerful week with over 200 children exploring the Mighty Love of God!

 

I have just a moment to invite you to services this Sunday!

 

9:30 Contemporary Service

Jared will be speaking to the subject of how children lead us to God!

 

9:45 Classic Service

Guest speaker George Vann will be focusing on the love of God!

 

11:15 Contemporary Service

High Seas Expedition Fantastic Finale

This will feature worship led by the kids, a drama that will wrap up all they learned, and an exciting time to learn about all God did this past week!

 

Gotta go!  Hope you come aboard this Sunday!  It will be a fun day of exploring God’s Mighty Love!

Dear Central Family,

 

The clock is ticking, and before you know it, this place is going to be abuzz with children, parents, and the whole Kids Camp staff as we set off on a High Seas Expedition!

 

We are looking forward to seeing what God is going to do next week through our Kids Camp as we seek to share the love of God with these precious kids!  I hope you have registered your kids and their friends.  Go to www.worshipatcentral.org to sign them up!  It is going to be an AWESOME WEEK!

 

By the way, take some time to check out our new website!  The site address has changed to www.worshipatcentral.org  Our C3 Creative team has done an outstanding job of putting this together and I know people will be impacted.  It is your one place stop for everything you need to know about Central.  While you are there, click on the “Like us on Facebook” link so you can keep up with what is happening through Facebook.

 

This Sunday we will conclude our two-week series on Worship.  Jared Alcántara will be bringing the message in the Classic Service at 9:45 and will be speaking on the Heart of Worship.  I will be preaching in the Contemporary 9:30 and 11:15 Services and my message is called the Heart of the Artist.  We are both looking forward to sharing with you.

 

Enjoy your day, and I am looking forward to seeing you this Sunday!

 

Pastor

 

P.S. By the way, if you can help us at the end of the 11:15 service to move some equipment and props for Kids Camp, that would be awesome!  Just come on down front and we will put you to work!  Let the Journey begin!

Happy Fourth!

 

I hope that you and your family are enjoying an extended weekend of fellowship and celebration for the freedom we have in Christ and the ability to express that freedom in this nation! 

 

We WILL meet on July 4 with 2 dynamic services designed to celebrate the freedom that is ours!

 

9:30 Contemporary Service

I will be speaking as we celebrate what Christ has done for us and what it means to be a citizen of the heavenly kingdom!

 

9:45 Classic Service

Pastor Gilmer will be speaking as we celebrate the freedoms that God has given us as His followers and will include a special Liberty celebration in music.

 

*NOTE: There will be NO 11:15 service this Sunday. 

 

I also want you to know that God is answering your prayers as you are praying for our teams in Romania and in North Carolina.  Pray for safe return as the Romania team comes back on Sunday and the North Carolina team on Monday.  God has worked through your sacrificial giving and prayers! His kingdom has been expanded!  Stay tuned for a special Sunday coming up in August for the teams to report on what God has done!

 

Please also pray for our team of volunteers who will be walking in the Ewing Parade on Monday, July 5.  We will be passing out flyers to advertise our upcoming Kids Camp!  If you would like to take part, please contact Terri Marshall at terri.marshall@ymail.com

 

Well, gotta wrap up some more details so I can go home and fire up the grill!

 

See you Sunday!

 

Pastor

 

P.S.  You’re not going to want to miss a new series we start on July 11 on Worship!  You might be surprised by what God has in store!
