What to Expect

What to Expect

We are a group of people who are doing our best to follow after Jesus. We want to give you a place to connect with genuine people who will love you, encourage you and help you follow Jesus too. We know you have a lot of questions so if you don’t see your questions answered here, please ask!

​

 

When does church start?

 

Worship services start at 8:30 & 11:00am.

​

We also have an online service at 11:00am.

​

Groups and classes (birth through adults) meet at 9:45am.

​

​

Where is Central located?

We are located in the middle of Round Rock, just off of 620 near Round Rock High School. Our address is :

​

301 N Lake Creek Drive, Round Rock, TX, 78681

​

​

What should I wear?

We are more concerned about meeting your real life needs than with what you wear. Most people wear casual attire so just dress as you feel comfortable and you’ll fit right in.

​

 

Where should I park?

We have parking spots right up front reserved for our guests. As you turn onto our campus you will drive past the front building toward the three story building where you will find parking spots in front of the glass doors leading into our Worship Center.

​

What is available for my kids?

No matter what age, we have incredible people waiting to love your kids and tell them about how valuable they are to the God who created them. From babies to teenagers – we have a place designed just for them where they can fit in.

Groups

WHAT GROUPS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ADULTS?

We are better together! We were not meant to get through this life on our own. Part of the purpose of the church is to put people around us who will stand with us through life's ups and downs and continually push us to be more like Jesus.

 

At Central, we have all kinds of groups, but no matter when or where they meet our groups consist of E.S.P.N. - Encouragement, Scripture, Prayer and Next Steps. 

​

On Sunday mornings we have groups called ABF's (Adult Bible Fellowships) that meet at 9:45 here on campus. They are grouped by age and stage of life but you are welcome in any group. We also have groups that meet outside of Sunday mornings in houses and coffee shops all over the community. We calls these "Mid-week" groups.

​

If you have any questions or would like to get connected in any of our groups, contact Chris Chalman, or fill out THIS FORM and we will help you find the best fit for you.

​

WHAT ARE THE SERVICES LIKE?

We want to tell you about the truth and power of the gospel of Jesus Christ and give you an opportunity to give back to God in worship. We do this through engaging, Biblical teaching and music that creates an environment for you to experience God and be encouraged by other Christ-followers. Our services are casual and contemporary in nature and are rooted in the truth of God’s Word.

​

Our 11:00 service is live every Sunday on our Facebook Page and YouTube Channel and then available anytime after that to go back and catch anything you missed. We believe strongly in the importance of being physically together in community and that church is much more than a Sunday service, but this is a great way to get a feel for what we are like and stay connected when you are sick or traveling.

Intro

INTRO TO CENTRAL LUNCH

Every three months we have a lunch after church for people who want to meet our staff and learn more about Central. This is a great place to ask questions, meet our pastors and get to know other people who have recently come to Central.

​

If you are interested in becoming a member of Central then this is also your next step in that process.

​

Our next Intro to Central Lunch will be on July 21. It will start at noon (right after church) in the Youth Building (the building at the front of the campus). If you would like to attend please click the button below.

About Us

About Us

Central started in 1993 as a "marriage" of two churches (Lake Creek Baptist Church and Northeast Baptist Church), and the unity shown in our birth has extended into the things we still value today. 

 

All are welcome

There are no perfect people here. We all come with our own baggage and issues and in desperate need of a Savior. You don't have to clean yourself up to come here - just come as you are.

 

Family is important

We are a place for families. In fact, it's not uncommon to find two or three generations from one family worshiping together on a Sunday morning. It is taught and modeled by our Pastors and Elders that your family is your first ministry. We believe that strong families build a strong church.

 

We are part of the "big C" Church

There is only one Church and we are just one expression of it here in Round Rock. The pastors in this community work hard to set aside petty differences and unite under the life-changing power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. 

​

The Baptist Faith and Message

​

​

​

Our Values

​

Scripture Foundation

The Bible grounds everything we believe and practice. We commit ourselves to knowing and living out the truth of God’s Word.

​

Fight for the Hearts of the Next Generation

We believe that our kids are a vital part of the church now and in the future. We partner with parents to shepherd the hearts of kids so that they can know and love Jesus forever.

​

Intentional Discipleship

We don’t become more like Jesus by accident. Rather we deliberately choose to practice the habits of Jesus, becoming disciples who make disciples.

​

Embrace Your Mission Field 

We all have a missionary calling for both here and abroad. More than just Sundays, we live on mission in every area of our lives.

​

Better Together

People come first. We choose people over production. We choose to share our lives with one another because we know that it is not good for us to be alone.

​

Safe Places

We create safe physical, spiritual, and emotional places for people to come as they are.

 

Generous in All Things

We choose to generously participate in the mission of God. Everything we have belongs to him. We give our time, talents, and treasures as a sign of our love for God and for the things he loves.
