News You Can Use 

CtK’s Post-pandemic Opening 

As CtK begins to open post-pandemic, we are calling on everyone to prayerfully consider how you might use your time and talents to help propel CtK forward in this new hybrid in-person/techno-based way of doing church. We have the technology. Now, we need YOU! Currently, we are seeking to fill ALL categories of worship volunteers:

• Altar Guild Assistants
• Worship Assistants
  • Ushers
  • Readers
  • Communion assistants
  • Soundboard/camera operators
  • Presentation computer operators
  • Online church host. This person would be basically acting as a “virtual greeter/online chat person” for worship services.

If you feel you might be interested in any of these volunteer positions and/or if you have any questions, please give Deacon Mandy a call (970-247-5310) or touch base with him between Sunday services. Training will be provided for all volunteers. Thanks for your consideration.

Opportunities to Volunteer in Your Community 

Alternative Horizons (Email: alternativehorizons.org) 

Alternative Horizons has a 24/7/365 hotline.  We staff the hotline with volunteers.  Right now our numbers are down and we are in need of volunteers.  It takes 15 or more volunteer to fully staff the hotline.  Was wondering if there might be a chance for AH to talk with church members about the volunteer position. A lot of time with direct contact people get what they need to know about the volunteering more so than on a flyer.  Or maybe you could get an announcement in the Newsletter.  Really anything would help.  If an individual would just like to come and do the training, that would be fine too.  They would just have to let me know that they want to come.  No commitment necessary. 

For all events and activities, please check the CtK website for the most current updates.

Blessed with rain, CtKers enjoyed food and fellowship under the shelter of Chris Park pavilion on Sunday, June 26th. Thanks everyone for a fun camp out!
