New Sermon Series

Today, Pastor Jody begins a 12-week sermon series on Paul’s second missionary journey. This series, “The Irrepressible Gospel,” will focus on Acts 15–18. Pastor Jody says: “There are some moments in history that completely change the trajectory of the entire world. Paul’s second missionary journey, as recorded in Acts 15-18, is one of those moments. God used the Apostle Paul, supported by a small team of others, to expand the Kingdom of God in dramatic ways. The message of the Gospel went forth in great power. The word irrepressible is defined as: not able to be controlled or restrained. That is exactly what happened as the Gospel was shared in city after city. In the face of great opposition, the Good News of Jesus Christ couldn’t be contained. And it hasn’t stopped! The Gospel is STILL being preached and the work of God is STILL being accomplished in this world. Join us in this 12-week sermon series as we explore the trip that changed the world!”
 

Attend or Help with Night to Shine

  • Attend: Guests will attend a drive-through line (at Antrim Brethren in Christ) where “paparazzi” will cheer for their vehicle. Each guest will receive a fun bag of food, gifts and their tiara/crown. They will continue the program at home while watching a one-hour simulcast program from the Tim Tebow Foundation, which will include a crowning ceremony, music, special guests, and more! We have just a few more spaces available for guests; register to participate at: nighttoshine2021.com.
  • Volunteer: We are in need of more people to serve at the drive-through portion of the evening, especially to cheer as part of the paparazzi. If you already have your security clearances and are willing to take part in this amazing event, visit serve.kingstreetchurch.com and look for Night to Shine.

 

New Partner 

Brett Morley has joined our church family as a partner/member and will be introduced in the 9:30 am Baker Center service. Be sure to welcome Brett as you see him.
 

2021 Bible Plan

One of our core values at King Street Church is to be spiritually alive in Christ. It’s not too late to join us as we read through the Bible together this year; we are just starting Exodus today. The plan is offered several ways:

  • Receive daily EMAILS to your inbox that include that day’s Scripture passage and devotional:  Sign up at bible.kingstreetchurch.com.
  • Receive daily TEXTS to your device: Text keyword “DAILY” to (717) 401-7777.
  • Use a paper SCHEDULE, available in the lobbies (although this will not include the devotionals)

 

Cold Weather Drop-In Shelter 

The Chambersburg Cold Weather Drop-In Shelter provides a warm, safe and clean environment for those who are homeless, and have no options for shelter during the cold inclement months of the year. They are open from December to April and depend on volunteers to provide extra hands to assist the Shelter Manager. In the past, KSC Sunday School classes have assisted on Wednesday evenings. We are still looking for classes or individuals to assist on the 1st and 4th Wednesdays of the month. The 7 pm to 12 am period is usually divided into 2 segments: 7 pm to 9 pm and 9 pm to midnight. For more details, or to volunteer, see the information on Service Central.
 
 

Offering Envelopes 

If you receive personalized offering envelopes, you can pick those up at the Church Office. The office is open Monday – Thursday from 8 am to 4 pm, and on Friday from 8 am – noon. Questions, contact Debbie Watson.
 

Other Ways to Serve

We are looking forward to a full year of ministry at King Street Church! If you would like to get in on the action, visit Service Central. We offer a wide variety of opportunities, some of which you can complete from home. Maybe you would like to send cards to shut-ins, or serve as an online host during Sunday services. Perhaps you are ready to help on-site as part of Welcome Ministries or the Media Team. You are invited to partner with us in loving the people in our church family and community!
 

RESET on Monday Nights!

RESET is a safe place to receive help and healing for any barrier that keeps us from abundant life in Christ. We meet each Monday at 6:30 pm in the Baker Center. To learn more about participating in and helping at RESET, visit HERE for details.
