Central Vineyard Church

About this church

Central Vineyard Church gathers Sundays from 10 to 11:30 a.m. at 55 East Blake Avenue in Columbus. Coffee and tea are available beginning at 9:40, and children's check-in opens at 9:45. Nursery serves children through age three, while CVKids provides age-grouped activities and teaching through fifth grade before children return to the main service ahead of worship. The 90-minute gathering begins with guided prayer, Scripture, and teaching, then moves into worship, Eucharist, and prayer ministry. That sequence is distinctive enough to help a visitor understand that music does not necessarily open the service.

The congregation describes itself as a diverse, welcoming neighborhood church and a community of prayer that engages suffering. Central Vineyard began with open-air gatherings at Whetstone Park of Roses in 2004, met in several neighborhood locations, and moved to its present building in 2018. Its public story highlights work related to housing insecurity and other needs affecting vulnerable Columbus neighbors. The church frames its identity through community, prayer, and engagement with suffering, while its beliefs use the Apostles' Creed as a simple center for unity and exploration. A person visiting church for the first time or exploring Christian faith is explicitly welcomed. Households using nursery or CVKids should arrive before the 10 a.m. start; anyone needing support can use the church's connection form to request contact with a pastor rather than waiting for a public event.
