State of the Church
If you were unable to attend the State of the Church webinar on April 30th, we recorded it and have attached it below. During the State of the Church Webinar, Pastor Nate, Pastor Dara, and two council members gave updates on how things are going at Christ the King during our time apart. They offered some updates on our financial position, and what staff have been working on. They also gave some insight into our initial plans for re-entry and what it will look like in conjunction with the Badger Bounce Back plan, once it is activated.

Still Looking for Bloggers!
|
We'd like to invite YOU to be part of the CtK blog! We're curious to hear how you are seeing God's love coming to life from your homes. Are you seeing it through worship? Or maybe your kids did something that reminded you of God's love. Or maybe...your mail carrier or a grocery store worker or a nurse you know?
We like to have one blog post every week, that's usually 300-500 words in length. Pictures and videos are welcome too! If you'd be interested in submitting a blog post, please send an email to
Maureen
, who will get you on the schedule.
So CtK...how are YOU seeing God's love coming to life?

Immediate Need for Mowers!
|
We are still in need of people to help with the lawn mowing for the summer. There are two riding lawn mowers so we would like 6 teams of two. We would like to have 5 more people to volunteer. Mowers must be 18 years or older or must have a valid driver's license and an adult present to operate if the rider is under 18. Teams are scheduled on a rotating basis. So, if we have enough teams, you may only have to mow a few times during the summer. If you have questions or would like to sign up, contact
Shirley. Space is also available to sign up as a sub.

During these times of Covid-19 and physical distancing, the Christ the King “Knit-Wits” are still making and praying over prayer shawls and finding solace as they are knitting. The need for the shawls continues in our community at large. If you are a knitter and wish to share with others during this time, we have yarn and simple patterns available for you to participate. They can deliver the items to you. If you have any questions, please contact Julie Meitzen either by
email or by calling
920-450-9252.
