    T he Pa s t o r s N o t es

    Its been a bit over six months since you wel-

    comed Susan and me to Central and Franklin

    County. I feel weve had a wonderful begin-

    ning together, and we are so happy to be here. I

    write this a few days after Vacation BibleSchool, and as I think back over that experi-

    ence, much of what is good and beautiful about

    Central was on display.

    First, the emphasis on the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Sometimes, VBS can be a glorified play and

    craft time with some little Bible lessons

    slipped in. Centrals VBS was all about help-

    ing children come to know, love and obey the

    Lord Jesus. This VBS was the most Spirit-filled and Christ-centered Ive ever encoun-

    tered. And one result is that fifteen children

    gave their lives to Jesus Christ as their Lord

    and Savior.

    Second, VBS was saturated by prayer.

    Sandys prayer calendar helped us focus on

    particular aspects of VBS and pray during the

    month leading up to the event; each evening

    was begun by prayer and prayer took placeduring may class times as well. VBS is a busy,

    detail-intensive ministry and its all too easy to

    overlook prayer, but you all kept praying and

    as a result one could sense the presence of the

    Holy Spirit.

    Third, many of you participated in VBS, giv-

    ing of your time and energy. I have to admit, by

    Thursday night I was tired and all I did was lead

    an adult Bible study. Over eighty of you worked

    with children, or helped set up, or led the musicand games - requiring preparation, energy and

    engagement. Central is a hands-on church where

    members rally together to serve in ministry, and

    its a blast to be part of it.

    Fourth, I was deeply impressed by the compe-

    tency and collaborative spirit of our church staff.

    Sandy deserves the lions share of our gratitude

    for her amazing work organizing VBS, recruit-

    ing and training the team, managing the hun-dreds of details and giving it a Christ-centered

    focus.

    But others from your church staff participated

    as well - Dani and Erin leading the music, Deb

    presenting skits, Ron and Bertie providing ad-

    ministrative and custodial support. What really

    delighted me was how the church staff func-

    tioned as a team and plunged in to serve to-

    gether. What a blessing it is for me to be part ofthis team of servants who love Jesus, and you.

    All this makes me deeply grateful to be part of

    the community of Gods people at Central

    Presbyterian.

    PS - Remember that this Sunday is Fifth Sunday at Central. That means ONE blended worship service at

    10 AM in the Sanctuary, followed by a pot-luck luncheon in Friendship Hall. Come dressed comfortably

    with a dish to share and prepared to worship God with your friends in Christ.

    Dear Luncheon Committee,I want to thank you for preparing such a wonder-

    ful buffet for the family gathering after my

    mothers, (Jayne Nansen), funeral. Since we arefrom out of town, it was very difficult for us to plan

    such an event. We were thrilled you offered. Eve-

    ryone who attended enjoyed the meal and appreci-ated a place to visit.

    Sincerely,

    Beth Cerri & Family

    Dear Central Church Family,

    Thank you for the many acts of kindness shownto me during my time in the hospital and at

    home. Thank you to Pastor Scott for his visits and

    to others for their visits and caring. Thanks to the

    Semper Fidelis/Brotherhood Class for the beauti-ful altar flowers. Many thanks to everyone who

    sent beautiful flowers and lovely cards, special

    wishes and hugs through Brenda. Thanks most ofall for your prayers and love.

    You remain in my prayers. God bless you.Love and gratitude,

    Beverly Minnich

    Dear Church Family,

    During my most recent challenge and hospi-

    talization, your thoughts and prayers, cards,phone calls, flowers, food shopping and visits

    all contributed to my recovery.

    Another important contribution to my contin-

    ued faith in a positive outcome was Rev.Scotts home and hospital visits. He always

    had a big smile, encouraging words, and won-

    derful prayers.Lew and I appreciate your support and best

    wishes. The Lord is good!

    In Christian Love,

    Lucille & Lew

    Thank you for the many cards, phone calls,

    visits, and acts of kindness that we receivedduring the loss of our mother, Shirley

    Rife. Your thoughtfulness was overwhelming

    and we truly felt surrounded by our caringchurch family. Your prayers lifted us up and

    helped to make a difficult time more bearable.Bruce, Angie, and Drew RifeJim, Marcia, Jess, and Jeremy Whitmore

    Six Month (25 Weeks) Budget vs Actual

    INCOME ACTUAL BUDGET %YTDCongregational Giving 201,023 404,500 49.7%

    EXCESS/(DEFICIT) 17,185 (60,100)

    The figures above show the recap of Central Presbyterian Church income versus expenses for the initial 25 weeks of 2013. If you recall,

    we entered 2013 with a deficit budget versus total projected income of approximately $60,100. To date, our giving is slightly over budget for

    2013 and is 32% ahead of 2012 giving through the same period. Our total income is also benefiting from Bank and Trust income over

    budget and a small tax refund. Our spending year to date is slightly below budget. As planned for 2013, Central will need to maintain cur-

    rent giving and attendance growth to meet our budget obligations. We are making progress!

    Wednesday, June 12 was the annual Men's Picnic. Morethan 30 men and boys attended and enjoyed two typesof Ribs, Wings and Hot Dogs. Most of all we enjoyedtalking and sharing together. There were many greatdishes that were brought to be shared and true to the"manly" thing there was no dessertleft of the large assortment that wasbrought! The rain held off just as we

    ordered. Kids waded in thestream--some played beanbag toss--others ate water-melon!

    SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!

    Casavant Organ ProjectFor some time the Swell reeds on thepipe organ have been difficult to keepin tune. We have consulted with our

    organ tuner, Mark Steiner as well asCraig Doyle from Hagerstown Organ,the company that rebuilt our consolein the late 1990s and did other workat that time. They in turn have dis-cussed this with Trivo, a company inHagerstown that makes reed pipes. Itis their recommendation that we re-place these unstable Swell reeds withnew ones that will hold tuning better.

    Samples have been brought to the

    sanctuary and tested when the organtuner was here recently. They willbe voiced at the factory and thenbrought to the church for finishing.The organ is not expected to be "down"or out of use for any Sunday Worshipservices. The new pipes will replace theold ones with the work being done dur-ing the week. It is anticipated now thatthe project finish target date is aroundLabor Day.We will attempt to keep you informedas to progress. If you have any ques-tions you may contact me as Organ-

    On Saturday July 20 Celebrate! The Arts at Old Market Days will be held downtown.This is a street festival featuring food and craft vendors as well as entertainment. Aspart of this celebration, we will again have the church open for cool air and bathroombreaks. We are looking for volunteers to serve as greeters in the LWW lobby. We willneed approximately 2 people for each shift: 9:00-11:00 AM, 11:00 AM-1:00 PM, 1:00-3:00 PM, 3:00-4:00 PM, 6:00-8:00 PM, and 8:00-10:30 PM.

    Last year the organizers added a new event the simulated Burning of Chambers-

    burg. Using lazar lights and character actors, people will experience an interactive re-enactment of the ransom demand and the town burning. Since this event was very wellattended last year, we want to keep our building open through the evening.

    If you are interested in greeting, please add your name to the sign up sheet posted inthe Lincoln Way lobby. This is a wonderful opportunity to share in the fun downtownand extend our Central hospitality.
