Proceeds from the sale will support our missions including, Rachel’s Children’s Home an orphanage for the child victims of Africa’s AIDS crisis.

Come early to find hidden jems. The sale will be held in the Church Hall and will be held rain or shine.

You will hear, stories that will lift your heart and you will hear stories that will break it. You will learn about the harsh realities of Maputsoe and you will also learn about the future that, with our help, Godwill and Hilda are building for these little children.

Rachel’s Home is a beacon of light in a very hard corner of the world. In a place full of violence, poverty and disease, Rachel’s Home represents hope for the future.

Come share this morning with us as we share with you our experiences in the mission that you and we are sharing together.

The Church Audio Academy is a 1 day training course that equips church volunteers with the skills and knowledge to better the sound quality in their church.

It will consist of two sessions:

1. A morning open lecture style covering theory, terminology fully open to questions as we go through the morning. We cover the basics in typical board layout and functionality, into mixing theory and basic coverage of compression and gating.
2. An afternoon session where we will have members from the worship team come out and do a live soundcheck, and then hands on mixing applying the concepts talked about in the morning.

Space is limited – please register after the service in the hall.

There is a small registration fee of $5 to help cover the cost of this event.

For more info please speak with Emile.

This is his story, and ours.

Ten years ago, a South African minister brought his family to Cambridge. He came here to answer a call from God, a call to build a better life for his family and a call to build on the foundations of a historic congregation.

It was an immense challenge. He was a stranger in a strange land. There were so many customs that were so different from his native South Africa. Life would be so different in this new land. In many ways this is a typical immigrant story. A family leaves behind everything and everyone they know to move to a new land to build a new life.

But, this story has a twist.

As a Minister, Aubrey was immediately thrust into leadership roles. He would have to guide the spiritual growth of a congregation of strangers.

This is also a story about the love and generosity of a congregation of believers.  Central took Aubrey and Elsie to their hearts. The congregation patiently supported Aubrey and Elsie as they grew into their roles and found their way.

Through Aubrey’s teachings and his love and support, Central also grew both in faith and in numbers. Central also began to look beyond its walls and to take on new challenges and answer new calls from God.

Whether it’s our mission to support the children at Rachel’s Home in Lesotho or our mission to support the children of Split Lake, Central has risen to the challenge and accepted God’s call to act.

This is a story of love. A young family from far, far away and a family of believers learn and grow together in faith in action and in love.

In those first 10 years, we have gone on an amazing journey together and we’ve learned so much from each other. We can only imagine where this journey will lead us next.

Thank-you Aubrey & Elsie

Everyone is invited to join us at the Lord’s table.

This study is especially geared towards those women who work during the day or those who prefer getting out in the evening. The group will meet on the 2nd & 4th Thursday evening of every month at 7 p.m. at 1916 CoronationBlvd., Cambridge.

The study will be Esther: It’s Tough Being a Woman, a video and workbook study created by Beth Moore (the same one the Friday morning group is studying).

This is a fantastic study that takes you chapter by chapter through the book of Esther, and you will learn SO MUCH!
