ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM THE COMMITTEE ON STAFF-PARISH RELATIONS TO OUR CHURCH FAMILY
Upon joining the United Methodist Church, members become aware of the clergy itinerant appointive process. Clergypersons are appointed by the Bishop in a pattern to share their gifts and graces with multiple congregations. While Central Church and The Reverend Surrett did not anticipate a change during 2020, there will be a pastoral transition due especially to clergy retirements, The Reverend Surrett has been tentatively appointed by Bishop Jonathan Holston and the Cabinet to the St. John’s United Methodist Church in Rock Hill, SC. St. John’s is a large membership church in the heart of downtown, with an extensive and varied ministry and located in the fast growing area of York County. The Surretts youngest son, Alec serves as Director of Youth at the nearby Woodland United Methodist Church. The Surretts last Sunday at Central will be June 14. The Surretts have cherished their time in Newberry and at Central where they have felt encouraged and supported greatly. It is anticipated that Bishop Holston will appoint The Reverend Joe N. Long, Jr. to serves as the next pastor of historic Central Church. The Reverence Long comes to Central from serving as the District Superintendent for the Rock Hill District. He is married to Kathy Jo Long and they have one adult son. Our entire church family will want to be in prayer and support as Reverend Long and his family begin preparing to move to Newberry and Central. His first Sunday in the pulpit will be June 28 and they will arrive at the parsonage on June 24.

Children's Church at Central
God Says "You are Awesome!" And we think so too! Children's Church is offered during the 9:00 a.m service for children ages 4 - through 3rd grade. Children are invited to go to Children's Church after the Children's Moments in the worship service. In a unique worship space created just for them, children will be introduced to a child-friendly, discovery-oriented worship experience where they feel like they belong. With a Children's Church, we at Central are sending the message that we care enough about our children to have their own worship service. For more information, contact the church office.
