Welcome!
Central Baptist is open for in-person worship but will continue to live-stream the service through the embedded video.
As of March 7 Central Baptist has made mask wearing optional to be in the building. It is still strongly recommended that both those who are immune-compromised, or are in close proximity to those who are immune-compromised, continue to mask for worship.

Worship Song, #712 "Be Still, My Soul"
Verse 1
Be still my soul the Lord is on thy side
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain
Leave to thy God to order and provide
In ev'ry change He faithful will remain
Be still my soul thy best thy heav'nly friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end
Verse 2
Be still my soul thy God doth undertake
To guide the future as He has the past
Thy hope thy confidence let nothing shake
All now mysterious shall be bright at last
Be still my soul the waves and winds still know
His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below
Verse 3
Be still my soul the hour is hastening on
When we shall be forever with the Lord
When disappointment grief and fear are gone
Sorrow forgot Love's purest joys restored
Be still my soul when change and tears are past
All safe and blessed we shall meet at last

LIFE OF THE SEAFARER
“Without the contributions of the world’s 1.5 million seafarers, international trade would “simply grind to halt,” according to United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in a message delivered on June 25th to mark a worldwide celebration of the International Day of the Seafarer. Mr. Ban, a South Korean, urged people everywhere to think about the courageous men and women who handle as much as 90% of the cargo transported worldwide.”
“Seafarers face many emotional, physical and spiritual dangers at sea as they go about their daily routines and MCS seeks to share the love of Christ with them when God delivers them safely to the Philadelphia area ports. Rev. Lee effectively and compassionately shares the gospel with men arriving with a wide variety of practical needs. His words of encouragement based in scriptural truth uplifts them as they return to the often lonely and dangerous life at sea.”.
