Notes from October Session meeting


  • Camera Donation: We have gratefully accepted the donation of a third camera which will facilitate greater flexibility in what we can show with the livestream on Sunday mornings.

  • Session Changes: Petronella Read, Alan Robertson and John Saliba have retired from active service as elders at  Central. We thank them for their years of dedicated service to the congregation.

  • Social Media: The Communications Team has been working very hard to improve and increase our social media presence. To ensure consistency and quality, social media posts associated with Central Church will be reviewed by the Communications Team and use similar logos etc.

  • New Year's Prayer meeting: The Worship Team is planning an evening of prayer for the New Year on January 1, 2025.

  • Church Tours: We are now promoting the availability of church tours through our website.  If you have a group that would like a personal tour of the church, please contact the office. There is no charge but donations to the Restoration Fund are gratefully accepted.

  • Name Tag Sunday: We will have another Name Tag Sunday on Sunday December 1, the first Sunday in Advent and a Communion Service.


 

VOLUNTEER MINUTE: For the next few weeks, each Sunday during the announcements, we will feature a volunteer describing the work of the church and ways in which you can help.  If you have not received one as yet, please pick up a copy of our new Volunteer Opportunities leaflet available at either entrance.
