OUR COMMITMENTS
Simply put, we’re a progressive faith community that sees the holiness in each person, works to understand and dismantle oppressive systems and serves our urban community. What does that mean? Read below.
LGBTQIA
Since 1983, Central has been a member of More Light Presbyterians, which centers and celebrates the lives of LGBTQIA+ people in the church and beyond
Peacemaking
We are committed to peacemaking through prayer, worship, Bible study, community ministries, and study and response to global issues. We also give money for the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)’s Peace and Global Witness Offering, which addresses conflict and injustice around the world.
Accessibility
We try our best to remove barriers of any kind – architectural, communication and attitudes – that exclude people from full and active participation.
Language
We use inclusive and expansive language to reflect God’s many characteristics.
Financial Support
We contribute to the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)’s three churchwide offerings: One Great Hour of Sharing, World Communion and Christmas Joy.
