What's New
Glen Lake Mission Trip -- Spring Break
This March during spring break individuals from Central will be going to Glen Lake Camp in Glen Rose, TX to work around the camp doing various projects -- painting, repair work, etc. Right now we are working out the details of the exact days during spring break but we need to know who would be interested in attending. The trip is open to children, youth, and adults (if a child or youth attends he or she must be accompanied by a parent). There is no cost for the lodging (Glen Lake will let us stay for free). There is, however, a cost for meals in the cafeteria. If you are interested in attending, please call or email the church office and we will get you on the list. The deadline to register is Friday, Febraury 17th. We will send you more specific information when we have it available.
The Bible In 90 Days
We have four meeting times for our Bible in 90 Days program:
Mondays 6:00 p.m.
Wednesdays 1:30 p.m., 6:00 p.m., 7:00 p.m.
If you would like to join us you are more than welcome to begin the journey. We read twelve pages a day and will complete the Bible in three months. For those who ordered Bibles last week, we have the Bibles and will pass them out this afternoon and tonight.
Emmaus Gathering
The greater Waco Emmaus community will be having its monthly gathering here at Central UMC on Thursday, February 2nd at 6:30 p.m. If you have been a part of Emmaus in the past feel free to join us. This might be a good time to re-start the Emmaus program here at Central. If you are interested in attending an Emmaus walk or would like more information about the program, contact the church office.
Church Under the Bridge
Sunday Jan. 29th. The Life Seekers Sunday School class will be organizing the meal, but anyone is welcome to participate. A sign-up list of food that will be needed will be in the northex this Sunday. We will prepare the meal at the church, Sat. morning Jan. 28th. beginning at 10:00. Anyone wishing to help deliver, serve or just enjoy being with a great group of people should be at the church no later than 9:30 Sun. morning. This is a great opportunity to develop community & show our concern & love for our neighbor. You may be surprised how much 'they' are just like 'us'!
