JOHN

Good Morning! I’m John Branning, Lead Pastor of Central United Methodist Church. As the season of spring approaches, we are reminded of the hope of new life. The trees will blossom, the grass will turn green again, and even the birds will return to their nests.

There is the desire, by most of us, that have been stuck inside from winter’s chill to get out and do something. It will not be long until that excitement becomes a burden instead of a joyful task.

Jesus shared with his disciples in Matthew 11:28 that he desire to give them rest from the burdens that they carried. Most of us feel the pressure everyday as we try to fit everything that we are obligated to do and need to do into each day. God created Sunday for all of us so that we could have rest and spiritual renewal.

I hope that Sunday is a special day for you and your family as you center yourself for the Monday that is coming. I invite you to start your week with us at Central at either our 8:30 contemporary service or 10:55 traditional. Come and experience rest.
