Central's Vision and Mission Statement
Where We Are Going

Our Vision is to Make GOD Known in Livingston and Polk County by striving to become a caring, culturally and economically diverse community that seeks to connect lives to Christ through a clear witness for Christ, quality ministries, and the lifestyle of each believer.

In pursuit of that vision, our Mission is to Make GOD Known through the following:

•Worship
We envision an increasing number of people gathered weekly for the passionate and experiential worship of Almighty God.  We see the completion of a new sanctuary where 1,000 worshipers
will gather every weekend.

•Evangelism and Discipleship
We envision an active Bible Study ministry designed to provide an opportunity for every person
in Livingston and Polk County to respond to Christ.  We will equip believers of all ages to develop into mature Christians through the in-depth enjoyment, study, and application of God's Word.

•Fellowship
We envision fellowship among believers that promotes a deepening relationship with Christ and with one another.

•Ministry
We envision every believer engaged in the discovery, development, and exercise of his/her spiritual gift(s) for the purpose of using those gifts to minister to the needs of the community
and the congregation.

We envision believers involved in a hands-on mission experience locally, nationally, and/or internationally.

•Prayer
We envision a Prayer Ministry where every believer will have the opportunity to learn more
about prayer and engage in meaningful, corporate prayer at some time during the week so
that we may confess our dependence upon God and seek His power for the advancement
of His Kingdom.

•Love
We envision a church body where God's grace is understood and extended to every person. 
We see a place where hurting people can find love, mercy, and patience.  We see a place
where people are free to develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ based on Biblical principles rather than man-made external rules.
