Good Morning!
When the great Chicago fire consumed the Windy City in 1871, Horatio Spafford, an attorney heavily invested in real estate, lost a fortune.
That same year he lost his four-year-old son to scarlet fever. Two years later, he booked passage for his wife and four daughters to Europe. On
a dark, foggy night, their luxury liner was broad sided by an iron tanker. All four daughters perished. En route to join his wife, the captain
called him aside and said, “I believe we are now passing over the place where the ship went down.” As he stood looking into the dark water,
he began to formulate the words to the only hymn he ever wrote: “It Is Well With My Soul.”
At Central, we welcome people who are struggling with life. Join us this Sunday for worship at 8:30 a.m. and 10:55 a.m.
