Growing

Looking for opportunities to learn and grow?  Everyone in our congregation follows a unique spiritual journey. Through worship, prayer, education, and service we encourage a variety of spiritual practices. Our spirituality engages science, art, and social justice work.

Here are some of the many ways we strive to grow at First Central.

Sunday Worship is at 10:30 a.m. in the sanctuary. You’ll discover a message that is progressive, inclusive, and visionary, while our vintage style draws upon the rich traditions of worship. On the first Sunday of the month we celebrate communion, and everyone is welcome to participate. On communion Sundays children remain in worship so that they too can participate.

Smart, inquisitive, and dynamic classes and presentations on a variety of topics, including the Bible, theology, history, and contemporary issues, First Forum meets on Sundays at 9:15 a.m. in the Third Floor Parlor.

Our weekly Bible Study is held on Wednesday nights during the school year from 6:05-7:00 p.m., after a potluck supper. Recently, we’ve explored the Parables of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke and the Wisdom Books of the Old Testament.

A Little Space offers weekly Yoga, Meditation and Tai Chi classes, as well as a two-hour monthly Restorative Yoga class. Private sessions or private classes are also available. Please check alittlespaceyoga.com for more information and for the current schedule.

Through the arts we explore, encourage, and foster new and divergent expressions of our values and beliefs. The Arts Team plans a variety of events and activities such as Creativity Weekend, art shows, photography classes, and cooking nights that enrich our worship, fellowship, and spirituality.

Plus there’s the Theology Brunch, Noon Meditation, Labyrinth, and Book Club. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to explore and grow at First Central.
