    27 Jul 2025

  What began in 1907 as a worship service for people who once lived in Central Mine and left when the mine closed, continues today, 116 years later. This non-denominational service blends a worship experience with a touch of the history of Central and how important the church was to these early pioneers. Come and experience worship by sitting in the same pews the miners sat in when Central was an active community. There will be services at 9:00 and 11:00 AM.
