Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and
dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the law: justice
and mercy and faithfulness; but these are the things you should have done
without neglecting the others.
Matthew 23:23
Crisis Intervention
Our goal is to provide the church community with competent and confidential
assistance during times of crisis.
Prison Restoration Ministry
Addresses the spiritual needs of men, women and children released from incarceration
and their families. They are directed in the Bible’s divine directives,
prayer and encouraged through Christian guidance to restore their lives and
relationships. The Christmas Angel Tree Program provides gifts for children
whose parent(s) are incarcerated
Senior’s Ministry
Offers seniors opportunities for fun, fellowship, spiritual growth, and service.
Senior members are involved in all kinds of wonderful ministries and service
projects that share the Good News of God's Love in Jesus Christ.
Harambee (Let’s Pull Together) Ministry
Provides information, referrals and assistance to help meet the diverse needs
of the congregation.
Health Ministry
The Greater Centennial AME Zion Church Health Ministry is comprised of medical
professionals and health service providers from throughout the church. They
provide information promoting awareness to sensitive health issues (breast
cancer, diabetes, nutrition, high blood pressure, heart disease, etc.). Members
of the Health Ministry react to health emergencies within the congregation
with a quick, expert calmness and Christian compassion to soothe the anxieties
and suffering of those stricken. Their efficient response has resulted in
those suddenly taken ill to receive the care and medical service needed.
Recovery Ministry
Historically the most common way for local churches to be involved in recovery
ministry is for the church to allow AA or NA or some other organization to
meet in church facilities. The Recovery Ministry provides a way to bridge
the recovery world with the Christian world by developing
a distinctively Christian support group. The Recovery Ministry is a 'safe
place' and a wonderful resource for accountability, encouragement and support.
Silent Workers Ministry
The mission of the Silent Workers is to provide programs and activities that
support our Christian family and church community.
Wedding Advisory Ministry
The ritual of Holy Matrimony is a wonderful occasion in the life of a man
and woman. To insure the sacredness of the wedding ceremony and encourage
the richness of this blessed union, spiritually inspired guidelines have been
instituted at Greater Centennial AME Zion Church.
