ADULT MINISTRY

Effective September 2025, the Mission &  Justice committee and ARTF were consolidated into one group, reporting directly to Session, and was named "Faith and Action.” The work of this group will  focus on Central’s call to serve at the intersections between anti-racism and justice for vulnerable people.  More than simply overseeing the work of a few small groups, this new committee will take initiative for creating and shepherding opportunities for the Central congregation to plan, learn, reflect, and act on God’s justice in our city and beyond.

Public Discipleship

With organizations like ISAIAH and Beacon Interfaith Housing, Central is engaged in the work of advocating for the public good, deeply rooting in our faith. Yet the connections between the faith of Jesus and the work we're called to can feel complicated and messy. Join Rev. Lou Bender and Amy McFadden from 6:30 to 8 pm on Wednesdays in July in person as we engage in the work of public discipleship using resources from ISAIAH MN. RSVP to office@centralforgood.org

Bible Study

The Lounge- SUNDAYS AT 9:30 A.M.

This class offers an opportunity to get to know a small group of Central people and to share perspectives on the Bible passages of the day. On most Sundays, the focus is on the passage that will be the text for the sermon that morning.  Everyone is always welcome on any Sunday, with no preparation needed.  The spirit of the group is to learn from each other and listen to differing views with interest and respect.
