What’s Happening Now At Central Presbyterian Church
Upcoming Worship
IN PERSON WORSHIP SUSPENDED THROUGH JANUARY.
Central will not hold any in person worship services during the month of January. All other in person activities previously scheduled are also suspended. We invite you to join us virtually for worship from our Sanctuary Sundays at 10 am. You will find the service broadcast on HTTV, and live streamed on our Facebook page. A recording of the service will be posted to our YouTube channel later in the day.
This is not the turn of events that any of us wanted to see. And yet, our commitment over the course of the past two years has been to act in ways that prioritized the health and safety of everyone. We will continue to monitor the situation, consulting with the schools, other congregations, and public health officials as we continue to try to navigate through these unprecedented times.
Central's policy for in-person gathering:
- For groups whose members are all eligible to be vaccinated against COVID, full vaccination, including boosters (as you become eligible), are required for everyone meeting in person.
- For groups whose member are not all eligible to be vaccinated against COVID, masks for those over 2 years old and social distancing are required for everyone attending in person regardless of vaccination status. This would include, at the present time, all public worship services.
No refreshments are allowed to be consumed during group gatherings inside the building.

EPIPHANY
We do not use the word “epiphany” very much. It means, according to Webster’s, “a moment in which you suddenly see or understand something in a new or very clear way.” Epiphany is also the name that the Church has given to January 6—the day when the season of Christmas ends, and the Gospel story …
What Christmas Is All About
One of my favorite Christmas traditions is watching the old television special, “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” I love how the chaotic commercialism of Christmas preparations give way to that moment when Charlie Brown screams out the question, “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?” And Linus takes center stage, and he simply …
