But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” – Matthew 19:14
Kid Central/Children's Ministry
Through our children’s ministry, we hope to instill in children a foundation of faith and relationship with Jesus, so that as they age and develop their own walk-in Christ. Children in grades K-6 meet weekly at 10 am during Sunday Worship Service. Our Kid Central Curriculum is second to none! Hope to see your kids soon!
Ages Birth: thru 6th grade
Other Special Activities for Children throughout the year have included:
- Vacation Bible School
- Varied Music Programs during Church Services
- Special Christmas Children’s Program
- Easter Program
- Annual Church Fall Festival

Operation Christmas Child: Our Goal is 52! Why 52? There’s a little more to that number than you might think! This year, Central Methodist Church has set a goal of filling 52 Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes—inspired by the story of the five loaves and two fish. The cost of each shoebox is $30. You can donate online here or write a check to Central Methodist Church, and we will build the box for you. If you have any questions, please contact the church office at 704-739-2471.
