Without these servants of God we would not have the width and breadth of music we associate with Central Church. I am thankful for the commitment of all of the people I named. I am thankful for their teamwork, dedication, caring and love of the role they each perform. They have allowed our increase of numbers to be tranformed into communities of peoples. We praise God for increasing our numbers and for continuing to mold us into a community that cares for each other and strives for excellence in using music to praise God.
