Light Sacramento! continues Sabbath, May 21. Bring a change of clothes, walking shoes, and a dish to share for fellowship lunch, and join us in the Camellia Room afterwards for a short presentation on practical evangelism before lighting Sacramento!
Sacred Concert: South African born, Pierre Van Der Westhuizen is a dynamic and committed music artist who is planning to bring his inspirational music to Sacramento Central Church. Pierre has held concerts all over the world, and has often been seen on 3ABN and HOPE Channel. You don’t want to miss this concert, to be held on Sabbath, May 28 at 4 PM in the sanctuary.
Youth Rush Coming! We are excited to announce the arrival of up to 20 young literature evangelist missionaries who will be staying at and ministering around our church starting June 5 through the first week of July. They will need your prayers, and if you are able, food donations to help offset their living expenses. Thank you for making them feel welcome when they come.
Ministry Opportunities
Your Help Needed: Central’s thrift store ministry is now closed and that means it’s time to empty out the store and clean it up for the next tenant. If you have some time to stop by and help us sort and clean up any day this week from 9 AM to 3 PM it would be truly appreciated. The address is 6700 Folsom Blvd., off 65th Street. Please remember that we will not be receiving any donations at this time.
Family Matters
Welcome! We warmly welcome the following individuals as members to Sacramento Central: Jessica Correa, Daniel & Linda Peters and Ben Arbenit Rrustemaj and his wife Nickling St. Fleur-Rrustemaj. We’re so glad you are a part of our church family. We also welcome Leticia Karn as new Pathfinder Director, and Rea-Nae Callender as new assistant clerk. A special thank you to Stacey Earnest and Chrystal White who previous filled these positions!
