This is the final week of our January Snack Brigade. Central will deliver fresh fruit and pre-packaged snacks to Crossroads Rhode Island, since they don’t have Sunday food service for their more than 200 clients. If you’ve signed up to donate food, please leave it in the designated boxes in the coatroom. Thanks for your generous contributions! And remember: the Snack Brigade will be back in July.

Sunday, Jan. 29, 11:30 am

Your presence and input are crucial to the annual Tentative Budget Approval Meeting. The budget determines what we can accomplish as a church during the coming fiscal year. We’ll also present proposed amendments to the Central bylaws and share updates on church initiatives. Plus, we will have special activities for children so parents are free to attend the meeting – in Chapel Hall after worship.

Sunday, Jan. 21, 11:30 am

Take time with others to feel God’s love and to put His love into action. Join us in Chapel Hall immediately after Sunday Worship for crafts and activities that reach out to people both within and outside our church community.  We’ll make prayer rocks, cards of caring, welcome bookmarks, origami peace cranes – and assemble bags for unhoused individuals. Questions?  Contact Judy.

As of mid-December 2022, The Campaign to Reimagine Chapel Hall has raised more than $1,030,000 of its $1.25 million goal. Please consider a gift to celebrate this great achievement. Gifts may be made on the Central website, via pledge card, or by calling Antonia Greco, at 401-331-1960 – and fulfilled over three years.

Saturday, Jan. 7, 10 am

Calling all Wise Ones … or those who wish to be one. We’re celebrating Epiphany, the Magi’s arrival in Jerusalem to pay homage to Baby Jesus. We’ll make crowns and stars, go on a “long journey” following a star … and enjoy refreshments along the way. While designed for children, Centralites of all ages are encouraged to attend. Join us in the Fireplace Room!

Saturday, Dec. 24, 12 midnight

We’re reviving a long-standing holiday tradition. Young adults and older teens are invited to stay after the Christmas Eve Candlelight Service to reconnect with old friends. They’ll enjoy refreshments, share what’s happening in their lives, and reflect on favorite memories of Central. We’ll get together in the Fireplace Room.
