Parking Your Praises!
I want to give a shout out to our parking lot worship service! 
Our third one is coming up on Sunday 1.24 at 10:15am with 
holy communion (served on the 4th Sunday of the month).  
We all have been missing in person worship and this is a 
great addition. I appreciate the energetic waves of hello, 
honking of horns during the sharing of the peace and...
New This Week
Join us this Sunday for our parking lot service with drive-up communion.

We will be having a drive-in parking lot Worship Service the 2nd and 4th Sundays of every month at 10:15am. Communion distribution will be the 4th Sunday from 10:00-11:15am. This will give those who miss coming to church the opportunity to meet here.

In addition, we will be airing our online worship at 9:15am on Facebook every Sunday.
Will you give up your
evil ways?
Join us Sunday, Our reading will be from Jonah 3:1-5, 10 / God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways!

See you Sunday!
Virtual Annual Meeting Announcement
Christ the King’s Virtual Annual Meeting
Sunday, January 31, 2021
Following the 9:15am Livestream Service

Join us for CtK’s Virtual Annual Meeting. This year it will be held virtually using Zoom due to the pandemic. We will begin onboarding members and allowing them to enter the meeting soon after 10am and start the meeting by 10:30am. This process will take some time for everyone to enter, so please be patient while we established a quorum and can proceed with the agenda for the day. Just a reminder we do need 50 confirmed members of CtK to be present. So tell others.

The Annual Report will be emailed Friday, January 15 for you to review. This report includes ministry reports and blessings God has provided over the past year and what lies ahead for 2021.

Watch for more details forthcoming via email and Constant Contact in the weeks to come.
Stewardship
We did it! $55,000!
CtK has surpassing the goal of $50,000 for the 2021 Ministry Spending Plan! Since mid-October we have been tabulating intent cards and your gifts written in!
Thank you for meeting the challenge and for supporting the ministry that serves you and many throughout our community and world. That’s right our ministry is global and God’s love comes to life all over the world 😊
Faith in Our Homes Video Series
Faith In Our Homes video series: Kayla will show us how we can share our days highs and lows with our families in this week’s episode.
The Faith In Our Homes video series is aimed to help families connect to our faith. Each week a member of the CtK staff will present a video focusing on Gods promises made through our baptism.
Camp Announcement
Pack your bags, 'cause we're headed to camp! All students grades 3-12 are invited to join us this summer for a week of faith formation and fun!
Dates: June 27th-July 2nd, 2021

Camperships are available for all students who attend camp!
To register and put down a deposit, please visit www.crosswayscamps.org, then send an email to Pastor Dara to let us know your children will be attending. Camperships are available for all students who attend camp!

RUB-A-DUB-DUB THERE ARE PRAYERS IN THE TUB
Do you want another way to “have a conversation with God” (Eugene Peterson) along with the “wordless sighs and aching groans that God’s Spirit makes into prayers?”
(Romans 8:26 The Message). Martin Luther in Table Talk said, “no one can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, except those who have learned by experience.”
Several The Lutheran Prayerbooks have been acquired through a Thrivent Action Team grant and are available in the tote outside the entrance to CTK.
Be sure to pick up your copy today!
