Facebook Live Worship Service
This week, because we are having trouble with our cameras and video equipment in the sanctuary, we are going to try Facebook Live.  The video will not be like it has been before, but it will allow us to show the service as we work to get our cameras and video equipment back to working order.

Click on the button below to go to our Facebook page and see the service live! (hopefully)

Welcome to Central Christian Church

When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability.
—Acts 2:1-4 (NRSV)
