The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9

Period of Transition We will look to the future of Central Church as we engage over the next several months in the task of finding a part time pastor who continues our vision of renewal and purpose. We will be able to take our time with this process as we have been able to secure strong and varied pulpit supply. We will continue to enjoy the sermons provided by Rev Dr. Monica Corsaro, Tom Colclasure, and others who have stepped forward to assist us during this time. All are eager to work in community with all of us as we continue to explore our faith and grow in spirit. Each Sunday we state that the ministry of this church is through its members, and the minister. Our search may prove to be more fruitful if our need for pulpit supply is shared with all our friends so please do not hesitate to make our need known. Where there is challenge, let us see opportunity. While we celebrate our history, let us create a future which is responsive to this congregation, and which also looks to those who will join us in our journey.
The May 4th concert at Central included the gifted voices of four soloists. Pictured are TimPahel, director, Terry Chasteen, tenor, Saul Nache, baritone, Christine Steyer, soprano and Alison Meuth, mezzo soprano. This was a thrilling performance.
The many attending the concert on May 4th at Central were treated to an exceptional performance by the combined voices of the Galesburg Community Chorus, Knox College Choir and the Monmouth Chorale. They were accompanied by an orchestra of 25 musicians. This was a truly outstanding performance. Many thanks to all musicians and directors for the time and effort that was involved to make this perfomance possible.

Students Bailey Morse and Deborah Ortiz Lustgarten will share their faith experiences and Jennifer Bunde will sing ancient hymns of the Hebrew people.

Central church in the Springtime!
Why I attend Central Congregational Church ( submitted by a church member) I was raised in a church with straight lines. Pews were positioned one behind the other with a center aisle. All eyes focused on the minister who was the only person to step onto the altar, even taking the collection plates from the approaching ushers, and delivering those to the altar table. No one else assisted with the service. There was no greeting before or coffee fellowship after. This was not a reflection on him personally; he simply followed the dictates of the national hierarchy of which we belonged. It was very possible to passively attend, listen, and retreat. And so I began searching. When I came to Central, I found curved pews that made a semi-circle in the sanctuary. The graceful lines seemed to bring a greater sense of community with fellow worshipers, and a greater sense of grace to those gathered. The dome that rises far above seemed to hold the memories of all the souls who had worshipped there before. That dome serves like an umbrella of shelter, giving a sense of protection, a sense of safety and a spiritual peace. The congregation was welcoming. No one wanted to reform me or make my sins clearer to me. I was accepted as I was, there was no judging, they were simply glad to see me. I can listen to the lessons from scriptures and the related sermons in this weekly tune-up and be reminded of how I want the journey of my life to continue.
Once again we will be joined with members of the Knox Islamic Club during our service on April 7 th . Finding and embracing the commonalities in various religions is the purpose of our interfaith services. They will be joined with Rev Dr Monica Corsaro who will be preaching that Sunday. This year’s guests should be as informative as last year’s so please plan on attending!
THANK YOU Our good friend, Pastor Jim Ecklund, was kind enough to return to our pulpit for two weeks to ease this transition. We thank Pastor Ecklund for keeping us in his heart and for his willingness to give of himself
On March 24th Knox College student Monika Woldegiorgis shared her story of growing up in London, England in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.

Once again we are happy to have the opportunity to find our commonalities with other Christian denominations.

As March 3rd was Rev Collins final sermon at Central, we certainly want to thank him for the three years of service he provided and wish him success in the next stage of his ministry. We also look to the future of Central Church. Over the next several months we will engage in the task of finding a part time pastor who continues our vision of renewal and purpose. During this process we have been able to secure strong and varied pulpit supply. A listing for guest ministers will be posted each month.
