Years of Experience Desired - 4 years or more Deadline date for application: October 30, 2017 Narrative on the Health of Mission and Ministry The leading concern at Central is the reduction of membership. Our numbers have decreased to 178 since our 2004 census of 242 members. Central has continued to carry on with most of its previous ministries despite the reduced membership. The worship service at Central has evolved over the years into a comfortable blend of traditional organ music with the choir singing sacred music and contemporary music provided by the Praise Band. The Worship Committee continues to consider various alternatives of worship styles and services to attract others in the community as well as to meet the needs of our congregation. Attracting young adults and families is a top priority. In a culture with competing time constraints, this remains a challenge. Worshiping God in spirit and in truth remains our main focus. There is an active core of members willing and able to follow leadership in the service of our Lord God. We pray for renewal, revival, and restoration of the kingdom References John Cragg 153 McNair Street, Brentwood, NY 11717-3408 Office: 631-242-5101 Cell: 631-512-6502 Director, L.I.
