Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

Weekend Events


It's a big weekend here at CtK...


The kids are gathering for their Christmas Program Rehearsal. And the program is tomorrow morning at 10am! It's going to be great, you don't want to miss it! (Plus, I remember how it was always neat when I was little to see lots of "church-people" at our Sunday School program, besides our parents. If you're in the show your parents pretty much have to show up, but the rest of the grown-ups? That's different. So please come and support our children and youth with your presence!)

One of the annual favorite fellowship events is tonight, the Candlelight Buffet, beginning at 6pm. Cost is $5, to cover the cost of the meant, and after that it's a potluck. Yours truly signed up to bring a dessert - there is baking in my very near future... Even if you didn't sign up, please come! Bring a favorite dish to pass: veggies, bread, dessert, potatoes, whatever. The white elephant gift exchange is always a riot, and the evening's entertainment is always fun, too.

Tomorrow is the Third Sunday of Advent - we'll be lighting three candles on the Advent wreath and hearing more about John the Baptist preparing the way for Jesus. See you in worship!
