Central Christian Church

In 1962, twenty-four believers dreamed of reaching others with the message of God's love. They met in a small downtown building named Oddfellows Hall and called themselves Central Christian Church. In essence, this was our very first Small Group. The little church had a big heart for people and continually invited friends. The result was a growing congregation and multiple moves to accommodate new believers. Central built a new building and, in 1970, held its first service at Mojave and Pecos. While the Las Vegas Strip was bracing for Y2K and planning to ring in the new millennium, Central celebrated yet another new beginning. In December of 1999, Central moved to its Russell Road campus with much-needed auditorium seating for three thousand people. The address? 1001 New Beginnings Drive. God is on the move at Central! In September of 2007, we added a second Saturday night service in Henderson, and a third Sunday service in Summerlin. With the success of the Summerlin campus, Central moved forward in 2008 to expanding through Regional Sites across the Las Vegas Valley by opening a third campus in the Southwest and launching an Online Campus! The stories from Senior Pastor Jud Wilhite’s book Stripped: Uncensored Grace on the Streets of Vegas (2007) are testimonies to God’s work in people’s lives at Central – a place where it’s okay to not be okay.
