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

The Baobab Blast is Underway!


It's Vacation Bible School time here at CtK- 40 kids and a whole bunch of teen and adult leaders are here for "God's Great Get Together: The Baobab Blast!"

The kids are learning about life with God and with each other, as well as life on the African Savannah: so many animals, so many plants, so many customs that are different from ours! The songs are fun and rhythmic - make sure to put the VBS sing-along and Ice Cream Social on your calendar for this Thursday at 6:30pm. Ice cream will be provided - bring your favorite topping to share for the "build your own sundae bar." Yum!

Today's theme was Trust. We really can trust God, just like Abraham and Sarah did back in Genesis 12:1-9. The Bible Memory Verse today is Psalm 37:5 - Let the LORD lead you and trust him to help. See if you can commit it to memory, too!

Please keep the kids and leaders in your prayers this week. We're hoping for a FUN and SAFE week here at Ctk!
