Central Assembly of God is in urgent need of volunteers for their Food Pantry!

Weekly needs: 

• Mondays and/or Thursdays, 9:00–10:00 AM: break down, flatten, and bundle food boxes and carry bundles to the rear of the church. Vacuum the fellowship hall to clean up from the bagging of food earlier.  Most of the team will still be present distributing food, so you will not be alone.
• Every other Thursday, (8/13, 8/27, 9/10, etc.), ~10:00 AM (done before 12:30 PM): If you have a van or SUV they can use for hauling boxes of food, a two or three-vehicle team meets at Voice of the Gospel Tabernacle in Mattapan to load boxes and bags of food from the Greater Boston Food Bank Truck, drive 30 min to Central Assembly of God Church East Boston, and help unload into their Fellowship Hall. Be able to lift 15–40 lb. Carrying distances are short.

Contact Kimberly Dawes or Rich Spinelli to volunteer

We have begun opening our doors for an in-person worship service on Sundays at 8:30 AM. The sermon for all three services will be the same, but the 8:30 liturgy will be unique; we are drawing on historic church traditions in order to invite more congregational participation, while also limiting the service to approximately 60 minutes. Music from the organ (and instruments) will be a part of the service. The 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM live-streamed worship services will continue in their current format.

Attendees must pre-register. Those fully registered should plan to arrive between 7:30 and 7:45 AM. 

Please note: If statistics in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts worsen in our continuing battle against the coronavirus, we will need to revise this decision. However, at this time we believe these are small steps forward to opening up our meetinghouse and worshiping together in-person.

If you have any trouble registering, please email [email protected] and we will help you.

SIGN UP TO ATTEND

Join us in welcoming the Lees, PSC missionaries to Central Asia. They are currently in Boston for their son’s wedding and are excited to spend a few months with us while they wait for their country to open back up from its COVID-19 restrictions. In addition to welcoming them back, come hear about their ministry overseas and what God is doing through their work. The same registration form will be used for both the 1:00 and 6:00 receptions. Please register only once. Questions? Contact the Missions Office.

Come gather with fellow undergraduates as we discuss church and college life amid COVID-19. Every Sunday, we will have two virtual worship communities that stream the 11:00 AM (traditional) and 4:00 PM (contemporary) services before a time of fellowship, reflection, and prayer. We hope to grow together in wisdom as we develop a deeper understanding of who God is on an intellectual and personal level. Students of all spiritual backgrounds are welcome!

To participate, email Alexis or Richard.

THU SEP 10, 7:30 PM

Men, how can we address the deep challenges around us? As Rev. Booker recommended, let us first listen to the lessons of the past from the voices of the oppressed so we may act from a place of understanding. Join us as we read through some of the books Mark recommended. Next up is a book on the biblical basis of oneness in Christ and we’ll discuss its implications for us and for our church. Questions? Contact the Book Club team.

We will tell the next generation, the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done. Psalm 78:4

Do you have a heart for discipling our children or youth? We are looking for people who are passionate about passing on the One Faith to our children and who would count it a blessing to serve our children, tweens, or youth. You don’t need a Ph.D. just a love for Jesus and a heart for kids. We need extra hands this year to be able to create smaller Zoom groups to better engage our children while we are still meeting virtually. It would also allow for other opportunities as well. If you are interested or you know of someone at PSC who is gifted in this way, please contact Adam Herndon.
