Reach the world by filling a backpack in Memphis?

Did you know that many nations are represented right here in the Mid South? For many years, Multi National Ministries has ministered to refugee and international families in the Memphis area. Central is a faithful partner with Multi National Ministries through financial support, volunteer service, and its annual backpack drive. Every year, MNM and Central Church collect new backpacks filled with supplies for the international and refugee children here in Memphis. These gifts truly bless these children that are often new to the United States, its culture and school system. Be a part of "reaching the world" by filling a new backpack with supplies for these special students. An information table in the lobby has the school supply lists, and the names/ages of each child that needs a backpack. All items must be collected by July 20. If you have any questions, please contact Lisa Conley in the Missions Office at 901-255-8128, or lisaconley@centralchurch.com.

What is a Secret Keeper Girl?

A Secret Keeper Girl values modesty. She surrounds herself with wise friends. She embraces Godly beauty. But, the most important thing is that a Secret Keeper Girl is a masterpiece created by God!

Secret Keeper Girl promises to be one of the greatest tools contemporary moms have to connect with their pre-teen daughters, while at the same time teaching them vital truth about beauty in a world that bombards them with lies. But don't count on this Bible study to feel like homework! Secret Keeper Girl is the most fun you and your daughter will ever have digging into God's Word together. Think: facials, tea parties, shopping . . .

Other Mother/Daughter Bible Studies:

Wild About You, a study for mothers of junior and senior high girls aimed at helping teen girls recognize their value as a child of God. Wild About You helps teens understand that God loves and pursues them passionately because He loves them deeply. It will also help them to recognize false loves and lies that lure them away from a devoted relationship with God. Click here to register for Mother Daughter Bible Study for Jr & Sr High Girls

First Time Visitor to Central?

We are excited that you are considering visiting our congregation. To help you feel welcomed and comfortable, please know that we have a somewhat traditional service at 9:25 and a more contemporary service at 11:00. No formal dress is required at either service, but the contemporary service is designed to be less formal on all counts. You will find visitor parking on either side of our campus and in the back. We encourage you to park in the back and come in the back entrance where you will find a Welcome Center for you in the very middle of our building (Chapel area). Here we will answer any questions you have about where to go, where your kids will go, and anything else you need to know. You may click here to see a diagram of our facilities and parking areas around the campus. If you have further questions, call 901-888-4673.

The safety of children is a priority for us so we will need some information about your children (child's name, allergies, special instructions, etc.) You may complete the visitor form online and the information will be sent to us ahead of time so we can have your child's nametag ready when you arrive at the Welcome Center. This will save time for your family when you visit or you may complete the form in person. We look forward to seeing you Sunday!
