Child Dedications

We are deeply committed to helping parents as they strive to raise their children in a way that brings God honor. We usually offer child dedication services as a special time of public ceremony and personal commitment when parents can promise to raise their child in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Due to the current health situation, we will be pausing our child dedications until further notice. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Children’s Baptisms

At Central, we believe the Bible teaches that a child receives salvation through a personal relationship with Jesus. Personal faith and salvation are not passed down from parent to child, and salvation isn’t the result of participating in a baptism. Instead, baptism is an opportunity for followers of Jesus to tell others they have joined God’s family through personal faith.

Here’s what else you can do for your child to be baptized:

1. Click here for details on our next baptism celebration. (PLEASE NOTE: due to the current health situation with COVID-19/Coronavirus, we are waiting to determine when we will hold our next baptism celebration. Please check back later for more details.)
2. Contact our Children’s Pastor, Jon Smithback, to let him know you’re interested in learning more about baptism.
3. Attend a mandatory baptism class with your child (baptism class info will be available soon)

We will contact you with more details after Jon receives your email expressing your child’s interest in being baptized.

Summer Children’s Ministries

Skill School

Every year, kids who have completed kindergarten through 5th grade will spend a week practicing fun skills, learning about Jesus, and experiencing an unforgettable week of camp right here at Central.

Due to the current Coronavirus/COVID-19 situation, we are sad to say that we’re unable to hold Skill School this summer. Instead, we will be putting together other fun resources and opportunities for fun this summer. Please check back on this page for more details as they develop!

Eagle Lake Day Camp

Eagle Lake Day Camp is for kids age 7-12 and comes to Central every summer. This past year was a blast, and we’re already looking forward to Eagle Lake next summer at our Southwest Campus.

Eagle Lake offers a combination of ministry, counselor relationships, and an exciting camp experience. Inflatables, rock climbing, gaga ball, and other high-energy activities are only the beginning. There’s also plenty of one-on-one care with counselors who invest in the individual needs of each child.

Eagle Lake is a new adventure every year, and we are pumped to see what next year brings. Here are the details for our upcoming Eagle Lake camp:
