Locations
Central is a multi-campus church with locations in both Carroll and Creston, Iowa.
Connect Groups
At Central Church, we believe you can’t do life alone.
We have Connect Groups you can join to stay connected with your fellow church attenders and grow together in your faith journey. Connect Groups exist so people can engage in biblical community that helps them become more like Jesus in every area of their lives; A space outside of the Sunday experience to form deeper relationships in an effort to grow closer to God and closer to each other.
Ministries
Central Kids
Weekend Services
Central's Children's Ministry offers programming and services for children during our weekend services as well as a Wednesday night program called Awana. During all church services we have a nursery available for children through age three years old and classroom programs for children through fifth grade. The age appropriate lessons give a variety of ways to experience Jesus through music, Bible stories, crafts, and videos. Our volunteers are committed to making this lesson time both fun and engaging and it is our desire to see each child grow and develop a relationship with the Lord.
Awana
Wednesday evenings during the school year, Central kids meet together for Awana. Students in preschool through 6th grade attend this program and learn about Jesus through worship, small group, and large group lessons and activities. Awana meets Wednesdays at 6:00 at Central Church. Our teachers and volunteers help the students rotate through the activities while the students work on Bible verse memorization and engage in Bible stories, working towards their own goals each week, and partnering with parents to help develop an ongoing relationship with God.
Check-in
At Central Church, we place a top priority on keeping kids safe! We have a digital check-in system using Planning Center to sign into each time we meet. This great system allows us to know who is here and what allergies or special needs students may have. New accounts can be created onsite at the Welcome Desk. Check-in stations are available at the nursery station.
