Lenten Study led by Rev. Sang Hun Han

Tuesdays, March 15 through April 19 at 7pm in the Library

Thursdays, March 17 through April 21 at 10am in room 115

 Sign up this Sunday. 

Walk with Jesus on his final day. Sit beside him at the Last Supper. Pray

with him in Gethsemane. Follow him to the cross. Desert him. Deny him.

Experience the Resurrection. This class is to help you better understand the

events that occurred during the last 24 hours of Jesus' life, see more

clearly the theological significance of Christ's suffering and death, and

reflect upon the meaning of these events for your life.

No single event in human history has received more attention than the

suffering and crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. The book we'll study, 24

Hours That Changed the World, by Adam Hamilton, is designed to help you experience and understand the significance of Jesus' suffering and death in a way you never have before.

Whether you are a longtime Christian or simply curious about the story of

Christ's crucifixion, you are invited to join us on this inspiring journey.

Sunday mornings, 3/27, 4/3,10,17 Beth Jayapalan will lead a study at 9am.

Women's Group Meeting

Glory Fingers Wins Gold

Approximately 500 people attended the 2011 Chicago Regional Christian Puppetry Festival in Tinley Park, IL last weekend including Kingswood's Glory Fingers Puppet team. Director Sheri Brubeck says the team was very involved in this year's festival.  

Krist Neumann had the honor of being one of the lead puppets in the One Way Street opening program. Krist also taught basic and advanced puppetry classes and Sheri taught Creative Song, Dowel Rods and Hand Mime.  

Glory Fingers presented our song "Read It" in the puppet song competition. Unfortunately, 2 of the 6 lead puppeteers in "Read It" could not attend, and one of the understudies got sick that morning. Krist saved the day filling in at the last minute with Brad Cadieux, Alex Dungan, Danny Harkess, Katie Horwitz, Lisa Marcson, Sarah McCune,  Megan O'Donovan, and Melanie Pawlik. The team earned a Gold Award and an award for Outstanding Choreography!

Save the Date: Glory Fingers new musical "The Narrow Brick Road" will be Saturday April 30, 2011 at 4pm and 7pm in the sanctuary.
