Volunteer Recognition Service - Sunday, September 7th with a Covered Dish Luncheon in the Family Life Center to follow. Bring your favorite dish or two to share. Operation Christmas Child - KBC is collecting items for the Samaritan’s Purse shoebox ministry every month. For the month of August we are collecting school supplies: Pens, pencils, sharpeners, crayons, markers, stamps and ink pad sets, writing pads or paper, solar calculators, coloring and picture books, and Bibles. The collection boxes are at the bottom of the stairs in the Education Building and in the hallway at the back of the Sanctuary. Thank you for your contributions! Backpack Buddies - Thank you ALL for the ongoing food donations you provide for Backpack Buddies. The weekend meals are going to children at Knightdale Elementary School who might otherwise have little or no food from Friday until they return to school Monday morning. We need lots of kid-friendly non-perishable food items to maintain this ministry (a grocery list can be found in the vestibule for you to take home). Currently we have an urgent need of all items on the grocery list. The food collection bins are located in the Education Building and the vestibule of the Sanctuary. Thank you again for supporting this ministry. Food Pantry Sunday - August 31st is Food Pantry Sunday, so don’t forget your food pantry donations! Supporting our local Food Pantry is an on-going mission project of the Angelic Ministers. This ministry works best when everyone donates to the food pantry and then the Angelic Ministers will make arrangements to have the food delivered to the local pantry. Food collection barrels are located in the education building for you to place your food donations. Our local food pantry is very specific in what they give out, so please make sure you purchase only what is on the list (a grocery list can be found in the vestibule for you to take home), and please be mindful of expiration dates. They will not accept expired foods. Prayer Vigil - We will be having a 16 hour prayer vigil on Saturday, September 13th beginning at 7:00 am and ending at 11:00 pm. You will never be alone in the Sanctuary. A deacon or pastor will be present at all times. There will be a poster available soon for you to sign up for a time slot for you and your family to come to the church and pray. There will be boxes throughout the church buildings where you can add your prayer requests to the list of general concerns we as a church have. There will be a church-wide covered dish breakfast Sunday, September 14th at 8:30 am. Bring your favorites to the fellowship hall and share in a good breakfast and a time of fellowship.

New Bible Study

“If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to

eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to

drink,” (Proverbs 25:21).

Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful

than the wound suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it.

And yet, there can be no peace without forgiveness. When

carried too long, residual anger becomes crippling, consuming

time, energy, and, ultimately, our relationships. Forgiveness is

letting go of the weight that holds us down, finding freedom

to truly live. It is a gift we give to ourselves, more than the

other person. This September, join us on Wednesday nights

as we discuss the challenges that come with learning to

forgive, asking forgiveness, and finding peace through letting

go.

Please note: If for some reason you are not available to help on the day that you volunteered to work, we ask that you please don’t forget to find a replacement for yourself so there is adequate coverage during the worship service. Also, if you have a change in the schedule for the children’s nursery or children’s church, please contact the monthly coordinator so that the change can be made prior to the printing of the worship bulletin. However, any permanent changes in the schedule should continue to be handled by the lead coordinator.

Thank you for all your help.

Attention KBC Parents: If you have a child participating in children’s worship, please make sure they are picked up at the end of the church service by a parent or adult. The children’s worship leaders will only allow children to be picked up by a parent or adult from the nursery, toddler, 2-3 year old, 4-5 year old, or 6-7 year old classrooms. We love our children at KBC and want to ensure their safety!
