Our spring fundraiser is finally here.  You can preview yard sale items right on this website.  Just click on This Week / Yard Sale Central.  Remember, 30 percent of the proceeds will benefit Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Haiti relief organizations. And, CCC Youth will be selling refreshments to raise money for their summer mission trip to Appalachia.  Tell your family and friends.  Or better yet … bring them!

We are looking for adults to join our CCC Youth summer mission trip team for what promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.  We’ll be traveling to Rainelle, W.Va., – in Appalachia – from July 16 to 22. Chaperones must be at least 24-years-old, per UCC’s Safe Church Conduct. Please speak with Larry Kellam or Judy Martowska if you’re interested
or would like more information.

On Palm Sunday, Central starting collecting this year’s special mission offering for One Great Hour of Sharing. For more than 70 years, OGHS has provided a way to share God’s love with neighbors in need around the world. To date, we have received $2,238 from 53 donors – approximately 80 percent of what we raised last year. We will continue to accept contributions through the end of June. Please consider even a small donation, so we can exceed last year’s offering.

Do a household chore without being told or reminded. Use your imagination.… [Read More]

To donate or volunteer, call the Church Office.

Adults of all ages are also welcome, but chaperones must be at least 24-years-old – per UCC’s Safe Church Conduct. Contact Judy or Larry Kellam for a Zoom invitation.
