THIS IS A CHURCH FOR EVERYONE

This summer we are enjoying a series called Sent by God during which each preacher will choose a passage of Scripture that illustrates how we are called to participate in God's mission to the world through the unique ways he sends us out to represent his purposes. Last Sunday the series continued with pastoral resident Hansol Kang's sermon "The Beneficiary of Mission."

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!

"I hope you will join me this fall as we seek to cultivate a spirit of gratitude so that we might find our deepest joy and satisfaction in the One who freely bestows every good and perfect gift." Read Senior Pastor Jason Harris' latest quarterly newsletter to the Central community.

College students and recent college graduates (those who've graduated within the past three years) are invited to an evening of pizza, drinks, and mingling on Thursday, July 17 from 7-9 p.m., hosted by Jackson and Sarah Howell on the UES. Register by Monday, July 14 at centralchurchnyc.org/summersoiree.

Sunday Service/Hospitality Teams are invited to join Twaambo, Ray, team captains, and the members of the Connect Team for brunch on Saturday, July 19, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the seventh floor. It will be a great opportunity to enjoy a meal together, catch up, and share how things are going.

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.
