Bits & Pieces from the Connector
Central Christian Scholarship The deadline for submitting a Central Pentecost Offering 2009 Each year the New Church Movement is While Pentecost special offering will be received in most congregations on Sunday May 24 and Sunday, May 31, donations can be made throughout the year. Sunday Morning Cafe Central We will begin 9:00 am summer worship on Sunday, May 24 (Memorial Day Sunday). In keeping with the goal of providing extravagant hospitality, we will return to offering fellowship time after worship. Linda Jacobson has graciously agreed to continue seeing that doughnuts are available in the library. We would also like to have a host/hostess to be by the table to greet people. That person(s) would be asked to provide juice for the morning and see that the area is cleaned up afterwards, as well as welcome people to the Fellowship Time. Make it a Sunday practice of enjoying a few minutes of fellowship, tasty treats and fostering Christian community as the family of faith at Central. You may also sign up to host the Hospitality Hour by signing the sheet posted on the church office window. Recognizing Graduates - Central would like to recognize all our High School and College graduates during worship on Sunday, June 7. Please contact the church office with the name of the graduate, the school from which he or she will graduate, degree, special honors/achievements and plans after graduation. We will share this information in upcoming issues of The Connector as well as during worship on June 7. RELAY FOR LIFE On Saturday, a continental breakfast begins at 5:30 am with Closing Ceremony at 7:30 am. Central has been a strong supporter of this cancer fund-raising drive. Sometimes I think that we don't have a family that hasn't been touched by this disease. We will be offering Luminary sacks to be decorated and funded with at least a $10.00 donation per bag. The sacks will be available in the Narthex the next two Sundays. Please take as many sacks for which you would like to make contributions. Decorate the sacks in whatever manner you feel created to do--stickers, pictures, cut-away designs, paper flowers, special message and on and on. Be sure to include on the sack the name of the person you are honoring. You can designate: In Honor of (Survivor), In Memory of (deceased), or In Support of (currently battling). When you take sacks, please sign on the clipboard your name and the number of sacks that you are taking. Decorate them and return them to the office by Wednesday, June 17 along with your check to the American Cancer Society. We will deliver them to the RELAY. I intend to have one of my sacks lift up all those at Central Christian who have dealt with cancer. I have a friend deceased and one still battling the disease that are not members of Central that I want to remember. If you don't want to decorate a sack, you can just leave a check to the American Cancer Society in the office. So be creative--and supportive. If there is someone who would like to organize a Central team to participate in the Relay's activities on the 19th and 20th, please let the office know.
