Why Do I love Central Church...

Personal Testimonies:

*"My family and I have been blessed numerous times by Central Church, I even hear myself giving a testimony of how Central Church has nurtured my family's spirituality. I am proud to answer that we go to Central Church when asked!" ~Margie S.

*"We love being a part of a church who cares about people and is actively involved in the needs of the community!" ~Alan B.

*"I have been blessed by the acceptance I have received at C.U.P. When I first started attending, people reached out to me and included me in ministries that I am still active in many years later." ~Gerry G.

Why do you come to church?  Why do you come to Central Church?

  • Central is a place of truth and grace, a very relational body.
  • Central is a large extended family.
  • Central is a busy place, with a strong community outreach commitment.
  • Skatepark ministry, along with quality pastoral staff.
  • Life works well when I go to church and live with Jesus, and not so well when I don’t. 
  • Central feels like home.  My small group is a church within a church.
  • Have gone here for years, and we have wonderful ministers and wonderful sermons.
  • Small groups – can discuss anything.
  • Central never stops challenging.  We never seem to outgrow the church. 
  • This is a safe, loving environment.  We are expected to keep growing, no matter how old we are.  David reads my email.  We are appreciated for what we do.

How have you grown as a result of attending this church?

  • Pastor David’s messages have helped me grow.
  • Have grown from not wanting to be involved to being a table leader with womens’groups.  Love the fellowship with women.
  • I am able to do things with God that I would not normally be able to do.
  • “I used to be a “weekend Christian”, now I find myself humming Christian songs mid-week at work.  My small group has been a blessing.”
  • We can’t imagine where we would be without the church. 
  • I consider the pastors to be within reach.

Welcome to Central Church…

We are people who walk alongside each other through life, finding out all that God has for us.  We pray for, help, encourage, as well as hold each other accountable.  We have our struggles, joys, questions and doubts, just like everyone else.  Our hearts, however, are set on a God who has proven himself loving and true.  We all enjoy having new people join our family and hope that you will be one.  Come and hang out among friends, we look forward to seeing you this week…
