PRIMETIMERS
The Senior Adult Ministry program at King Street Church, known as The PrimeTimers, is a vital part of our church with new and expanding opportunities for involvement. This growing ministry provides Christ-centered activities addressing the spiritual, social, physical and educational needs of men and women in the “second half of life.” However, anyone twenty one years of age is welcome to participate. This rapidly growing segment of our church family includes retirees, grandparents, people with adult children, couples, singles and widows/widowers, all of whom desire to be productive servants of Christ.
ACTIVITIES
Prime Timers was started as a Senior Citizen group by George and Peg Herbert, but all adults are welcome! This is an informal group with no membership required.

Drivers Needed
There is a need for a driver(s) with a CDL license and a passenger permit to occasionally drive the KSC Mini-bus. We also could use additional drivers for the regular church van (no CDL required). If you can help in either of these ways, email [email protected].
