KOG's Week at a Glance

At The Refuge, this Monday's theme is “Giving Thanks” based on Psalm 100 and Luke 17:11-19. Skit about saying, “thank you.” Why is it so hard at times to say thanks to each other? To God?

This Sunday is the Last Sunday in the Church Year.
“Before the Foundation of the World” based on Matthew 25:31-46.
In these end times, we can be comforted knowing that Jesus, because of His death and resurrection, has already prepared a place for us--even before the foundation of the world.

The Refuge is here! It is held at KOG every Monday night at 7:00. Come Monday night and check it out! Come also and enjoy coffee, drinks, snacks and fellowship at 6:30 prior to worship. This is a brand new way of connecting with God and His Word, and replaces our Saturday evening service. So, if you have to be away for the weekend, or just want to return on Mondays to experience a completely different topic on God's direction for your life, please try The Refuge! And while you're at it, invite a friend or two to join you!

"Helping Hands Network" - What is it? How can I help? How can I use the network? Watch for this new project that will be a very personal way we can be servants to each other! More news coming soon!

Ministry Opportunity: Deaconess Jana Knight from Voice of Care ministries is conducting weekly devotions at the Little Angels home in Elgin for children with disabilities. The devotion time is from 4-4:45 p.m. each Wednesday. She is asking if anyone from our congregation might be interested in attending and being with the children during that time. If interested, see Pastor Perry.
