On Friday, October 3, Central Youth will join with youth groups across Edmonton at Saints Church (Glastonbury Site) for a worship night. The 780 Rally nights are a neat way to connect with students and leaders from across Edmonton, worship the Lord, and see what He is doing throughout our city. Drop off and pick up will be at Saints Church Glastonbury.
To learn more about the 780 network of youth groups and further event details, visit their Instagram. For more information about Youth at Central, contact Mike, Reg, or Jess.

You are invited to a morning of connection and prayer.

If you attend another site and are looking for ways to connect with other women at your site, you can contact the Church Office.
Relating to adult children is radically different than parenting school age kids.
How do we do life with our adult kids?
Is it possible to do too much for our adult children and end up hurting them and their future?
Are we helping or enabling our adult child?
How should parents respond when they experience rejection from their adult kids
What do we do when our adult kids choose values contrary to ours?
Jim Burns, founder of HomeWord ministries, has addressed these questions in his book “Doing Life with Your Adult Children: Keep your mouth shut and the welcome mat out.” We will watch a video of Jim Burns talking through the main principles laid out in his book. Then Pastor Tom will lead us through a large group discussion about the video. We will conclude with round table discussion and prayer.
This event is a 50+ seminar but all adults are welcome including parents of school age kids. Refreshments will be provided. Please RSVP HERE so we can plan accordingly.
Central Women at Connors Hill invites you to MAKE ROOM for our first gathering of the ministry year! Join us on Thursday, October 23 from 7-9pm for a DESSERT NIGHT with worship, sharing & prayer. Please bring a dessert to share.
We look forward to building a meaningful year together with you!
