North Kent Presbyterian Church: 7/08/18

​ 
WORSHIP AT BOSTWICK LAKE UCC THIS SUNDAY!
 
COMBINED WORSHIP THIS SUNDAY!   This Sunday, July 8th, four congregations will be gathering together at Bostwick Lake Congregational Church at 10:30 am for a combined worship service and a potluck lunch.  Bring a dish of food to share with Bostwick Lake UCC, Rockford UCC and Rockford United Methodist Church!  You may want to bring a lawn chair to watch some of the activities that rumor has it may be planned for the kids outside after the potluck in their fellowship hall.   The address of the church is 7979 Belding Rd NE, Rockford, MI 49341, and it is just 8 minutes away.  (So if you forget and come to North Kent for worship at 10 am you will still have plenty of time to drive over to Bostwick Lake UCC, and you will still be EARLY for worship.)
 
Pastor Karen is preaching, Neil Blakeslee is one of the readers, and we will be sharing communion together.  We also will be singing the first verse of our favorite   Glory to God whose goodness shines on me, right after the benediction.   Please hang onto your NKPC offering envelopes for this week and bring them next week. Bostwick Lake UCC also does provide nursery care for the under 2 crowd. 

*Note if this combined Sunday service works, the plan is for NKPC to host this service in 2019.*
