Launching a New Year of Worship, Learning and Service
Kickoff of the 2010-2011 Program Year
There's always a warm welcome at Central, but on September 11 and 12 we're going to pull out all the stops! It's the weekend we launch a new Saturday evening worship service and offer a preview of the program year to come. It will be a great opportunity to discover the spirit of Central!
Saturday, September 11
Eucharist in the Round
5:30 p.m.
—45 minutes of inclusive, interactive, accessible, fresh liturgy in one of the world's grandest neo-gothic settings
Expect quality music and preaching in a liturgy with fresh language. Come as you are—whether dressed for lawn work or to spend an evening on the town. Communion will be served "in the round" all gathered around the altar.
