North Kent Presbyterian church: 5/27/18

 
ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
NEW PULPIT, FONT and Children's Supplies!  We give praise to God and heartily express our gratitude to John Knox Presbyterian Church for gifting to us their pulpit, baptismal font, a microphone and two shelves of teaching props for our Children in Worship program! John Knox is downsizing and was looking for a good home for their pulpit and font.  Since these items match our pews in style, session voted unanimously to try them in our sanctuary.  Watch for their installation and dedication coming soon! Praise be to God!
 
GOT QUESTIONS? Do you have a theological or spiritual question that you have always wanted to hear a sermon on? You are invited to ask Pastor Karen and she will research and preach on that question one of the weeks for our summer sermon series: Questions from the Congregation! 
 
OVER FLOWING BEDS? NKPC MAY BE ABLE TO HELP
We are opening a "Foster Garden" for thinned or leftover or donated flowers or plants.   Please place those plants you are willing to donate in a disposable container under the tree near our front door after Mother's Day. Volunteers interested in developing our "will become" garden, please call the church office at

12 North Kent kids are registered for camp! Let's send them!
Our Camp Greenwood tree is starting to leaf out !  Keep that green fertilizer coming! If you would like to help send our NKPC kids to camp, please mark your check for Greenwood scholarships.  Camp Greenwood Forever!
 
~BTW the youth are doing their part to earn their tickets to camp. They helped out with both the April and the May Camp Greenwood clean up days!  (Ask the youth about raking leaves and cleaning bathrooms and cabins at Camp Greenwood.)  They are also invited to sign up to sell parking to our LPGA friends, June 12 - 17th here at NKPC!~
 
A HUGE Thank you to Micki Kelly and Todd Mercer and to everyone who enjoyed the masterful dinner concert last Sunday afternoon!  Your creation of an unforgettable experience is helping to create unforgettable camp experiences for our kids! 
 
We have now raised approximately $1650 of our $3200 needed!  
We are half way there! Keep up the great work! 
 
Parking Cars for Greenwood!  The Presbyterian Women of NKPC are organizing us to park cars here at NKPC for the LPGA event going on at Blythefield Country Club.  Sign up in the Narthex to take a shift Tuesday - Sunday June 12 - 17th. 

NKPC 2018 FISHING CONTEST!  Our annual fishing contest back, and this year it will be even easier to score points.  We will be using Michigan's "Master Angler" records to score our fish and to compete against each other for a $50 prize and very important bragging rights!  Submit your photo of your catch next to a tape measure to enter the contest.  Multiple entries encouraged.  Everyone is invited to participate.
