Send in Your Recipes
Our current sermon series is based off recipe elements found in the book, Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking by Samin Nosrat. This has inspired us to create a collection of recipes from Central. You are encouraged to share your favorite dish and its origin story. To contribute, please write your recipe(s) on one of the cards that can be found on the entry tables at church. You can also submit them electronically HERE. If you have any questions, reach out to Pastor Julia (julia@galvestoncentralchurch.com).
Theology 101 Class
Have you ever wanted to know more about how to get involved at Central, how we are organized and fit into the United Methodist Church, and what we believe? Our pastors have developed a series of classes to dive deeper into each of these topics! Next up will be Theology 101, a chance to learn about the foundations of Methodist theology - grace, sacraments, social holiness, and more. Join us on Sunday, November 8th at 9am in the upstairs clinic for Theology 101!
Neighborhood Cleanup
Central is partnering with Surfrider Galveston for a neighborhood clean-up. Stick around after service on Sunday, November 15th. We will have a light lunch before starting our clean-up at 1pm. This is a way for us to literally “Go and be Central” to our neighbors. Garbage bags and gloves will be provided to the walking groups so wear comfy shoes and clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. Sign up HERE so we have a headcount for food.
Thanksgiving in the Park
On Sunday, November 22, we will have our annual outdoor worship service and picnic lunch at Kempner Park (2704 Ave. O) during our regularly scheduled time of 10:30am. Bring a lawn chair or blanket for seating. After the worship service, we will enjoy a Thanksgiving meal together. Central is providing the main course, but we are asking folks to please bring a dessert to share.
We will also need volunteers that morning. We will post the signup link for that next week. If you have any questions, reach out to Amy (amy@galvestoncentralchurch.com).
