A New Ramp for Billie
March 11th. March 11th was the last time we were able to gather for worship. It's been 113 days. We miss you all, and we've heard from many of you that you are missing the CtK community as well. We hear you, and we want you to know that we (your pastors and council) are discussing ways for us to safely be together.

Despite the fact that we've been apart for so long, God's love has STILL been coming to life through all of you and through our beloved faith community!




Peace be the journey,

​Pastor Dara
New This Week at Christ the King
State of the Church Webinar on July 8th at 6:30pm

Join us July 8th at 6:30pm for the State of the Church Webinar. During the State of the Church Webinar, Pastor Nate, Pastor Dara, and two council members will give updates on how things are going at Christ the King during our time apart. We’ll also share some updates and changes to our plans for re-entry. There will also be some time for Q & A. We do hope you will be able to join us.

Since it is a webinar, the only people who will appear on screen are the presenters, then you will have the opportunity to type in your questions. To access the webinar at 6:30pm on Wednesday, July 8th, click the link below.

If you will be accessing the webinar from a mobile device (phone or tablet), you will want to download the Microsoft Teams app. If you are accessing from a computer, you will be able to access from a web browser.

In the event you are unable to make it, rest assured we will record the webinar and have it available for you to view at a later date.

This Sunday, July 5th will feature Virtual Coffee Hour with Pastor Dara, and next Saturday, July 11th will feature Virtual Coffeehouse with live music from Heather. We look forward to connecting with you!
Summer Youth Group
We are excited to announce a new Summer Youth Group for youth in 4th through 8th grades. We will be meeting every other Thursday at 4:30, throughout the summer. We will meet over Zoom until it is safe for us to all be together in person. Our time together will include time as a large group, with some time separated into 4th – 6th grades and 7th -8th grades. While we may physically have to be separated there is no need for us to be socially separated. Summer Youth Group is a time to play games, hear about Jesus, and talk about how God is working in our lives and the lives of those around us. If you are interested in getting the Zoom link, please contact Susie or Kayla.
