The mission of Central Christian Church is to bring people together and assist them in becoming productive members of the Kingdom of God and our church. 

​

Affirmation of Faith

As members of the Christian Church,

We confess that Jesus is the Christ, 
the Son of the living God,
and proclaim him Lord and Savior of the world.

In Christ’s name and by his grace
we accept our mission of witness
and service to all people.

We rejoice in God, 
maker of heaven and earth,
and in the covenant of love 
which binds us to God and one another.

Through baptism into Christ
we enter into newness of life
and are made one with the whole people of God.

In the communion of the Holy Spirit
we are joined together in discipleship
and in obedience to Christ.

At the table of the Lord
we celebrate with thanksgiving
the saving acts and presence of Christ.

Within the universal church,
we receive the gift of ministry
and the light of scripture.

In the bonds of Christian faith
we yield ourselves to God
that we may serve the One
whose kingdom has no end.

Blessing, glory and honor
be to God forever. Amen.

-Preamble to the Design for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)
