FROM THE MINISTER’S DESK
This weekend, we celebrate the most sacred days of the Christian calendar. I hope you’ll join us on Thursday evening as we recall Jesus at table for his last supper with his friends.
Friday morning, we recall the amazing sacrifice He made for our sake.
And Sunday morning we celebrate His glorious resurrection.
The three days are all components of one amazing story. Let’s celebrate them together.
SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP 10:00 A.M.
Central United Church welcomes you to join our Worship Service Sunday mornings at 10:00 am. In worship we proclaim our faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour; God’s word is read and preached, sacraments celebrated, faith sung and prayers offered.
Sunday services are also livestreamed (and recorded) through the Church website or you can join here. A copy of the bulletin for this Sunday’s Service is attached here.
This Sunday’s Scripture readings are Acts 10:34-43 and Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24. You can also find a daily scripture message at the top of our website.
