Virtual Christmas

Due to the continuing pandemic, we could not be together in person this year. That did not stop us from holding virtual services and celebrating the birth of Jesus. Hopefully we will get to spend the 2021 Christmas celebrations together again.

Eagle Scout Project

As part of his service project as an Eagle Scout, Briley tore down the old, dangerous playground. In its place, he is building a new playground. We are thrilled that Briley chose this as his project.

God Squad Trip to Merom

The Central Christian Church(DOC)/St Mark UCC youth group visited Merom, Indiana. The group arrived in the fog to spend a challenging morning on the High Ropes Course at the Merom Camp and Retreat Center. After surviving the ropes course they walked to the Merom Bluff for a picnic lunch overlooking the Wabash River. They finished with a very interesting tour of College Hall.

God Squad Donation

Many of our God Squad youth have grown up at Central Christian Church. Over the years they enjoyed the playground on our church grounds. The playground was a victim of age and weather and became unsafe. The youth have been sad that their younger church friends are unable to enjoy the playground. One of our youth has taken on the task of re-building the playground as his Eagle Scout Project. Today, some of our youth presented him with a check for $200 from funds they have raised towards the playground project. They have also pledged their support in helping with the construction of the project. Thank you to these generous young people!
