Children's

Central’s Children Ministry is committed to partnering with families to provide training for the children of the church and community in Christ-like attitudes, servanthood and discipling that will lead to a personal commitment to Jesus Christ, a greater understanding of the Christian faith, and a desire for life-long discipleship.

Youth

The Youth Ministry walks with youth in their journey to know Christ by creating an environment in which youth can experience Christian communion to hear the gospel to know God’s love and to respond in faith by loving and serving others, for in all of this we are making disciples of Jesus Christ.

Young Adults

Central’s L.I.F.E. (Living in Full Effect) includes believers between the ages of 18 to 35 who are committed to CUMC’s mission. The ministry provides: a loving community in Christ through interdependency, accountability and inclusion; opportunities for community involvement and mentoring; and a connection between CUMC and the surrounding colleges.

H&W

The mission of the Health and Welfare Ministry is to educate and promote the health and wellness of our church and community. We seek to promote health awareness by providing information on health-related activities (i.e., studies, walks, runs, blood drives, etc.) that are sponsored by the community; write articles for the church's publications; and provide educational materials on subjects that are important to our church and community.

Music

Whether it be through prayer, singing, or communion, worship can take many different forms. Here at Central UMC, music plays a vital role in our worship experience. We strive to connect with Jesus as we perform, appreciate, and share in the music during every service. Our many music ministries are open to all, and allow for us to connect with each other as we work and serve together to prepare inspirational music to be shared in worship. Giving church members opportunities to develop and use their musical gifts and talents, as they grow spiritually, is a special goal of the music ministry at Central UMC.

Technology

The Technology Ministry team is positioned to assist and support Central United Methodist Church in reaching out to members, visitors, seekers and leaders through a variety of technology tools including: video, audio, print, “smart” technology, and internet. Because there is so much involved in developing and maintaining a dynamic presence through the effective use of technology, the Technology Ministry should be just as prominent and integrated into the church’s total ministry plan as the other church ministries.

The Technology Ministry team builds dynamic, interactive, multi-layered services that expand the church’s reach to connect with users 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year so that any person, anytime, and anywhere can become a disciple of Jesus Christ and enter into a life-changing, world-transforming journey of faith, hope and love.
