SUMMARY:Worship (Sa)
DESCRIPTION:Saturday evening worship is a contemplative communion service. Whichever pastor is preaching on Sunday\, preaches and leads worship on Saturday night. The service is guided by a contemplative sense: a slower pace\, room for silence\, and a simpler service order. The altar is on the main floor\, and much of the music is led from a piano within the gathered community. The service is generally about 45 minutes long\, with 40-50 people regularly gathering. After worship\, there is a social time with non-alcoholic beverages\, wine\, beer\, and finger food like cheese and crackers\, dip\, and sweets. \nJoin the Livestream

SUMMARY:Listening for God Contemplative Prayer
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join the Listening for God contemplative prayer group at any time. The group gathers each second Sunday of the month at 12:30 p.m. Pastor Peter leads this prayer gathering grounded in various contemplative prayer practices. Each month a practice is introduced and then experienced. For those that wish to share\, we pause to reflect on the experience and how God is present. It is also a time when you do not need to share anything\, simply be present for this time of prayer. We gather in the prayer space in the back corner of the sanctuary and wrap up by 1:30 p.m.

DESCRIPTION:We gather every non-holiday Monday at 11:30 a.m. to eat lunch together. The meal is planned by our great kitchen staff and accomplished by our team of faithful volunteers. It is a meal served to folks at tables and we get a chance to enjoy some fellowship. Some folks come to lunch because it’s where they catch up with their friends\, some folks come to lunch because it’s good food for free and that helps them meet their basic needs in a dignified and loving way. \nLearn More

SUMMARY:Health Commons
DESCRIPTION:The Augsburg Central Health Commons\nAnyone looking for diapers\, hygiene supplies\, one-on-one nurse consultations\, or just to have a place to sit and rest are welcome. Volunteers often spend time visiting with members of the community\, distributing donations\, and setting up the space. Faculty\, students\, and volunteers also provide basic care such as blood pressure checks or basic foot care. The hope is that the moments here can allow guests to address their health needs as they deem necessary\, and the work can lead to addressing health inequities and foster healing.

SUMMARY:Worship (Sa)
DESCRIPTION:Saturday evening worship is a contemplative communion service. Whichever pastor is preaching on Sunday\, preaches and leads worship on Saturday night. The service is guided by a contemplative sense: a slower pace\, room for silence\, and a simpler service order. The altar is on the main floor\, and much of the music is led from a piano within the gathered community. The service is generally about 45 minutes long\, with 40-50 people regularly gathering. After worship\, there is a social time with non-alcoholic beverages\, wine\, beer\, and finger food like cheese and crackers\, dip\, and sweets. \nJoin the Livestream

SUMMARY:Vacation Bible School (VBS)
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars now for Vacation Bible School (VBS) scheduled for June 22\, July 13\, and August 10. If you’re not familiar with VBS at Central\, we set aside three Sundays for you to bring kids ages 3 to 11 to church from 9:30–11:30 a.m. where we sing\, play\, learn\, share fun snacks\, and hear stories about Jesus and God’s people throughout history. \nThis summer\, we will explore the question\, “Where did Jesus live?” We’ll look at the city of Bethlehem and what the stable might have looked like. We’ll look at the area around Nazareth and Capernaum and what houses looked like in those cities. And\, we’ll think about where Jesus slept when he was traveling around the cities and communities he visited. We’ll think about and learn what Jesus ate and how he cooked his food and what he might have done in his free time. \nFor more information and to register\, email Pastor Stephanie or Kari Colchin. \n
