Young Adult Gathering

Thursday, Sep. 25, 6 pm

Young adults ages 18 and up are invited to join a relaxed, open conversation about life and faith. Life is too big to walk alone – let’s journey together! We’ll connect, share stories, and build community along the way. Bring your questions, bring a friend … everyone’s welcome! The group meets in the Fireplace Room on the fourth Thursday of each month. Questions? Contact Cristina Ferri.

Called To Care Seminar

Sunday, Sep. 21, 12 noon 

How do you accompany and care for people going through difficult times? Claudia Demick, Bob Iovino, and Caroline Johnson will show you how to share God’s love, comfort, and support with those in need – while honoring their unique life experiences and perspectives. Lunch will be provided. RSVP to Claudia. The seminar runs until 4 pm, in the Fireplace Room.

Children’s Choir

Wednesday, Sep 17, 6:30 pm

Central’s Children’s Choir welcomes young singers entering grades three to eight. Rehearsals are weekly on Wednesdays from 6:30 to 7:30 pm in the choir room. But we urge families to come at 6 pm for MIDWEEK! We also encourage kids to bring a friend or two since it’s more fun to sing with your pals. The children sing most Sundays and warm-up prior to Worship. We welcome singers from all faith communities. Questions? Contact Patrick Aiken.

Block Party Central!

Apple Picking

Sunday, Sep. 14, 12 noon

CCC Kids and Youth and their families are invited to Jaswell’s Farm – one of the oldest family-owned and operated apple orchards in Rhode Island. Picking apples isn’t just the perfect way to spend an early fall day, it’s a chance to get a head start on important fall baking.  Think apple pies, apple cobbler, apple cake, apple fritters, and more! Please join us at Jaswell’s Farm (50 Swan Road, Smithfield).
