ONLINE SUNDAY WORSHIP, May 31st
The Sunday service will be available to watch via live streaming at 10:00 am and is recorded for later viewing, through the Church website. To watch live or view a recording later, go to the Church website, scroll down and click on Central United’s Live Stream Page or click here. A copy of the bulletin for this Sunday’s Service is attached here. We suggest, for joining the live stream, that you tune in early. You are encouraged to have your bible handy and please note that the text of this Sunday’s Sermon will be available on our Church website prior to Service time. This Sunday’s Scripture readings are Numbers 6:22-27, 2 Corinthians 4:1-6 and John 15:15. You can also find a daily scripture message at the top of our website.
In these challenging times, the importance of maintaining through regular worship is magnified. While we can’t gather physically, we can gather virtually through our live stream of Sunday services. And with this technology is the possibility for many others to join with us.
Please join us each week and spread this good word. Share our streaming information with family and friends, and via your extended social network, hopefully, more and more people will hear about our live stream services and join in each week.
Following the guidelines of the Ontario Government, there are no onsite services until further notice.
