Who We Are

CCC is a congregation of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), a church of 3,800 congregations throughout the U.S. and Canada, with over 700,00 members.
    
The church began on the American frontier as a movement to restore the unity of the Christ’s church which, after many centuries, had fractured along doctrinal and denominational lines.  The movements of Thomas & Alexander Campbell with Walter Scott, joined hands with that of Barton W. Stone in 1832 to form the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ); a church dedicated to bearing witness to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of all Christians, not just a few.  "Unity is our polar star," and we seek to be one in Spirit!

The symbol of the church is the red chalice.  It calls attention to the importance of the Lord's Supper in our weekly worship services.  The Saint Andrew's Cross recalls our  Scottish-Presbyterian roots and our commitment to evangelism as a primary calling of the disciples of Jesus Christ.

Central Christian Church came into being in 1909 through the gathering of 51 charter members who committed themselves to the vision of discipleship and unity under Christ.  They had a charter to share the Good News of God's love with the people of Columbus and the Valley, a ministry this congregation is still committed to today!  As we move toward celebrating our 1st century of ministry in May 2009 we pray that our congregation will continue growing and serving with grace and in gratitude.

We are excited about what God has and is doing among us and we want to share that with others... with you!  It is our hope and prayer that you will find this to be a warm and accepting, a challenging and faithful church that will feed your spirit and provide you with a place to love and serve the Lord!

There are many ways for you to grow, fellowship, and serve Jesus at Central Christian Church. 

We invite you to become part of this loving, dynamic and growing church family by responding in faith to Jesus Christ.
Join us this coming Sunday for worship!
