A Most Festive Day at CtK!

Join us on December 18th for our annual Live Nativity!

Bring your dogs and yourselves (let Deacon Mandy know) and play a part in the telling of the Nativity Story.

Service will be outside on the front lawn. You can come at the regular 9:30am worship time to watch, or arrive no later than 9am to get into costume. There’s nothing to memorize, just fun to be had and the greatest story to be told.

Then stick around for Holiday Hoopla, our annual “gingerbread” “house” making “contest”. You don’t use gingerbread, you don’t have to make a house, and you only have an hour to put something together. It is wild fun for all! It’ll start at about 10:45 or so on the 18th.

See you there!

Continue to Deeply Form Your Life!

As we continue to delve into the practices that make a life deeply formed in Christ, CtK welcomes guest speaker Rhonda Muckerman on November 6th. Rhonda will give us a lesson on Jin Shin Jyutsu after worship (from about 10:45 – 11:45 am) in the Community Hall.

You don’t want to miss this amazing seminar!

See you on November 6th at 10:45am in the Community Hall and let’s get happy!

Rally Day 2022 Crib Notes

Rally Day is Sunday, September 11th. We are asking each and every person in our CtK Family to attach themselves to an M-Team this year! Commitments can be as infrequent as yearly or as often as daily – the choice is yours.

But we need everyone to help CtK to thrive.

When you’ve made your choice(s), you can email the Council Liaison to get in touch with your chosen committee’s leadership OR you can come to church on September 11th, stay after worship for Rally Day, and meet your teammates. WHY NOT DO BOTH? 

A message of service from our CtK Council President: Molly Bodewes 

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much” Helen Keller 

At the risk of scaring everyone off, I’d like each person here today to think about their gifts and how they can share them

with our church family. The past 6 weeks, you have learned about the 6 “teams” that divide up the needs of the church into

smaller pieces:

• Administration- (Caring for the church and its financials),
• Magnification (Strengthening Worship services)
• Maturity (Deepening Faith life of all ages)
• Membership (Building relationships)
• Ministry (Serving those in need)
• Commission (Proclaiming the Gospel)

Our church functions in similar ways to any household. Someone needs to clean the kitchen, mow the grass, paint the walls, take out the trash, bring cookies to a sad neighbor, make

snacks, pay the bills, go to the bank, plan a budget, etc. We have once a year jobs, once a month jobs, once a week jobs. We have behind the scenes jobs, out in front of everybody jobs.

We want your ideas, your energy, your fellowship. Please prayerfully consider how you can be involved. We need you all!
