THIS IS A CHURCH FOR EVERYONE

The Psalms put songs in our hearts and words in our mouths when we don't know what to sing or say. This past Sunday we looked at one of the most familiar passages in the Bible, Psalm 23. This psalm has comforted God's people for generations by lifting our eyes beyond the anxieties and fears that surround us to see the Shepherd who goes before us, behind us, and is with us. We hope you enjoyed last Sunday, as visiting pastor and friend of Resound Project Rev. Shawn Slate helped us consider “A Song for the Fearful.”

Christianity somewhat conveniently offers an unbelievable narrative that, if true, literally changes everything. Which raises the question: Is it possible that Christianity is simply wishful thinking — a framework generated by humans who were (and still are) looking to place their hope in a future that’s better than their reality? Check out the most recent video in our Jesus Reconsidered series, and email us your questions at seniorpastor@centralchurchnyc.org!

Central children will discover the joy of being children of God and take a journey through the Bible at Vacation Bible School 2026: Camp Champion! VBS will take place July 6-10 from 9 a.m.-noon., and we're still in need of volunteers to help make this a special week for our children. Register now to volunteer!

Summer Socials are events throughout the summer that provide opportunities to build community within our congregation, welcome those who are new to the city and/or to church, and engage our city outside the walls of Central. Check out what we have going on over the rest of the summer!

Register now for a Summer Bible Study. We offer men's, women's, and coed studies with both morning and evening options. This summer we will be studying the book of Philippians. Register and find out more at centralchurchnyc.org/biblestudies.

Central is in need of volunteers to serve on our Sunday Service Teams as well as in other ministry areas. If you're interested, fill out our form and we'll be in touch!
