Mark your calendar for Central’s annual Stewardship Scavenger Hunt. This family-friendly, fun-filled adventure will lead you through every nook and cranny of our church.

Join us in Chapel Hall!
People who are considering membership in Central Congregational Church will meet once again with our senior minister Patrick Faulhaber – in the Fireplace Room – to share stories of faith and discuss what they want and need in a church. If you have questions, please contact the Church Office (401-331-1960 / cccangell@centralchurch.us) – and Patrick will get in touch.
The Nursery will now open at 9 am on Sundays, so those with children may attend choir rehearsal, Adult Sunday School, and any other pre-Worship committee meetings or activities. And please welcome Beth Callaway, Central’s newest nursery worker, who will be working alongside longtime team member, Kathleen O’Hara.
CCC Kids and Youth, get ready to have a great time jumping at Fun City! The 30,000-square-foot facility has activities for all ages!

Your presence and input are crucial to Central’s first Congregational Meeting of the new year. We’ll be reviewing the tentative budget for 2025/26. The budget determines what we can accomplish as a church during the coming fiscal year. Nursery care will be provided so parents can attend the meeting. Please join us in Chapel Hall after worship.
A year ago, we called Patrick Faulhaber as Central’s new senior minister. We did this with a sense of hope and possibility – and the belief that his gifts, skills, vision, and passion were uniquely suited to Central’s mission and action. This service of Installation is official recognition of this call – a way of affirming the movement of the Holy Spirit that participated with us in the process, and that called this leader to this place at this time. Please come and celebrate with us!
This month, the Gallery features “Pilgrim Steps,” a visual transcription of pilgrimages made by artist Mary Dorsey Brewster. Camino de Santiago has been an important Christian tradition for 1,000 years. Culminating in the city of Santiago de Compostela – believed to be the resting place of the apostle James – the route covers 500 miles across the northern Spain. Mary will share her personal experience walking the Camino de Santiago and how it inspired her painting. Join us in Chapel Hall.
Confirmand Breakfast / Rehearsal: 9 am
Worship: 10:30 am
The confirmation class has reached its final summit. The confirmands have written their faith reflections and will share some of them with the congregation as they lead the service and are confirmed. Prior to Worship, the confirmands and their families will enjoy a delicious, celebratory breakfast in the Fireplace Room prepared for them by the Board of Deacons – followed by confirmation service rehearsal. Please stay after Worship and greet Central’s newest members!
Central is one of few churches in Rhode Island to offer a service on Christmas morning. Ours is an intimate celebration of Christ’s birth. There’s no sermon, just a wonderful Christmas story and communion. Please take an hour from your family celebrations to join your friends, neighbors, and people from out of town for a festive service that welcomes the Light of the World into our midst and into our hearts.
