I think I understand what they mean by worship centre.

The whole building is St. James' church and within that building are going to be a lot of different bits.

We have one church building and inside it are a lot of different bits, school rooms, offices, kitchen etc. In th middle we have the "churchy" bit where the worship takes place and we call it the chapel. Quite often people refer to the whole building as the chapel too so it can get a bit confusing. It seems to me like they are just trying to make a distinction between the bit that will be used for church services and all the other bits that won't by giving that a separate name because by saying "the church" it could mean the whole of the building.
