   HE WAS THERE ALL THE TIME

Matthew 28:1820  MESSAGE BIBLE
Jesus speaking to the disciples; ".....God authorized and commanded me to
commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life, marking them
by baptism in the threefold name: 
 Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  Then instruct them in the practice of all I have commanded you.
I'LL BE WITH YOU AS YOU DO THIS, DAY AFTER DAY AFTER DAY,  RIGHT UP TO THE END OF THE AGE."

"He was there all the time", a song written
by Gary Paxton speaks of the fact that
Jesus is always with us even as we seek
peace for ourselves, as we seek
 to blame others for our troubles, even as we are used and abused by others, Jesus is there all the time.  Even when our fake rainbows fail, our lives can start  each new day with Jesus. 
You see no matter what journey
 our lives are on, Jesus waits patiently in line to love us and be with us all the time. 

 
                         
 
      Pastor Barry and Gayle Fielder
 
 
Gayle and I have discovered
that Jesus is there with us all the time
in good times and bad.
Come discover along side of us how
Jesus is there for you ...all the time.

Pastor Barry

We Are Building Upon Faith

Central  Community 
United  Methodist  Church


     CCUMC had its beginnings on November 28, 1971, in an old school building on Highway 39 in Shell Knob.  On March 12, 1972, forty-seven people signed the roll as Charter Members.
     Services were held in the Shell Knob Community
Building while a new church building was under construction
at the present site on Highway YY. 

The first service in the new $75,000 edifice was
on December 16, 1973. 
     Dedication of the Church was on March 23, 1980.

     Ground was broken in August of 1981 for the addition of a $175,000 sanctuary, and on Palm Sunday in 1986
the addition was dedicated to Christ. 
     A residence for our pastor was completed in 1986 on property
adjoining the Church.

     In 1999, a new building addition was completed.  Included in the
new facility are a multi-purpose room with a regulation sized
basketball court, a commercial kitchen, 5 class/conference rooms,
office space, with additional second floor expansion space for future multi-purpose rooms.
