A Message From
Kyle Brown
Summer is drawing to a close and Fall is quickly approaching. Although our lawns and annuals are starting to fade, Fall is for most of us a time of starting anew. Vacations are over. School's back in session. Christ the King resumes Jesus & Friends, youth classes and our Adult Forum.
This Fall, we're also starting anew with our interim pastor, Paul Schwartzkopf. Let's make this an opportunity to bring in new people to see what we have going at Christ the King. I sometimes think our vital and active church community is one of the best kept secrets in the area. It shouldn't be!
Remember, our mission is "to bring healing and new life to hurting and hungering people through a growing relationship with Jesus Christ." Chances are, you know someone who is hurting and hungering. Maybe they've tried "organized religion" and become disenchanted. Take the initiative. Reach out to that person during this coming time of spiritual rebirth in our church. Bring them to worship one Sunday. We may be able to help them find healing and a new life in Christ.

GO GREEN ON RALLY DAY!
On Sunday, September 12 at 11 AM, the Education Wing will be filled with worms, garbage and . . . food (yuck!). Come launch our year-long theme of GO GREEN: Being Stewards of God's Creation.
The Discovery Center will host a hands-on Wiggly Worms demonstration. And start coloring! We'll collect "My Weather" art pictures eligible to appear on WETM/Channel 34. Play the "Recycling vs. Garbage" game, then we'll eat! Please remember: hand out the invitations you received in the mail. If you need more invites, they are available at the Welcome Station. So bring a friend and earn Bible Bucks!
Also, please remember to bring a recyclable item for our classroom sculpture. Questions? Ideas? Wanna play with worms? Contact Julie Sifert @ 785-3697 or jsifert@stny.rr.com. |

Our own Jim Ford will offer his keyboard skills, if needed for accompaniment.
