We're at that point when our entire membership will soon be encouraged to begin considering their financial commitments to our On Our Way Rejoicing: Blessed to Give, Renewed to Serve Campaign. The first step in that process is to invite Advance Commitments that will build momentum and set the pace for generous giving in our congregation.
On Sunday, December 7th, we will host an Advance Commitments
event for the purpose of receiving early financial commitments. Anyone in our congregation who would like to make an early, inspirational financial commitment to our campaign is welcome to participate. Please see me (Fergus Prestbye) if you would like to be included in the Advance Commitments process.

Enrichment Gatherings Continuing in November, you’ll have the opportunity to attend an Enrichment Gathering as part of our On Our Way Rejoicing…Blessed to Give, Renewed to Serve stewardship campaign. The gatherings will last no more than 2 hours and are offered at various times, days and locations so that you can choose one that is convenient.
These gatherings will be a chance to gather with KLC friends, learn about the On Our Way Rejoicing…Blessed to Give, Renewed to Serve campaign, be reminded of the many ministries of Kent Lutheran, and turn in a prayer request card for the Prayer Vigil Sunday, November 8th. These gatherings are not financial in nature; no financial commitments will be taken.
Kent Lutheran has a 125 year history and a mission that we want to continue into the future. It’s not often we get together in each other’s home and we’re excited for every adult at Kent Lutheran to attend one of these meetings. You’ll be hearing more about these gatherings.
Offerings given in the envelopes designated “Thanksgiving” will support the ministry of H.O.M.E.
THANKSGIVING PIES This year we are inviting anyone who would like, to make or bring a pie for KLC’s traditional Thanksgiving Day pie celebration after our Thanksgiving Service. We are also inviting you to set up, serve, make the coffee, or clean up after this fun event. Please check the signup sheet in the Narthex for these amazing opportunities. We promise a “gobbling” good time!
