New here? Come as you are and discover a community where you truly belong
Welcome to Christ Central
At Christ Central Church, we are passionate about creating a place where everyone feels welcomed and connected. Whether you're exploring faith or looking for a new church home, we'd love to meet you!
What to Expect
Our Sunday morning worship is centered on community and life-giving worship, blending both traditional and modern elements. The music includes a beautiful mix of classic hymns and contemporary songs, offering something for everyone. As a part of the PCA, our service incorporates historic liturgy, which adds depth and beauty to our time together. We recommend arriving around 9:45 AM to grab some coffee and hang out before the service begins. Come dressed however you feel comfortable—you’ll see everything from jeans to more formal outfits. Every week, we also take time at the end of the service to share in Communion, grounding us in the Gospel message through this meaningful sacrament.

Music
At Christ Central, the role of music is to bring honor and glory to Jesus Christ, our Savior, as we actively engage in worship. We do this with two goals in mind. The first is for music to enhance worship through congregational singing and participation. Secondly, music is for meditative purposes. This happens when our musicians are well-rehearsed and prepared. We believe that music should be played and sung with excellence, always bearing in mind that we are giving praise to God. Music notation and hymnals are provided so that the congregation can actively and immediately participate in worship.
Families
Children are welcomed and expected! For toddlers, we have a children's area where they can be accompanied by parents and still be part of our worship service. During the sermon, we offer a children's church and lesson each week for children ages 4 to 8 years old. The lessons are planned to build understanding of the Bible and the good news of Jesus.
