Ice Cream Social – August 2

You are cordially invited to an Ice Cream Social on August 2 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Fellowship Center.  Sundaes and milkshakes will be provided.  Donations are not necessary, but will be accepted!  Please come and enjoy an evening of treats and fellowship with your friends!

There is now a staffed nursery, in the downstairs nursery, for the 8:15 Service.  However, more help is needed!  If you would be willing to serve, please sign the sheet in the vestibule.

Happy Campers spend your summer with God!  Summer mid-week kid’s program will go until August 12th.  It will be held at 7:00 p.m. at the Fellowship Center.  Please join us in a fun camping theme as we learn more about God!

This Fall we hope to begin a Toddler Open Gym, one day a week.  Similar to Toddler Time, the children will have a time of play in the gym, then a snack and story will follow.  However, we need some toddler riding toys for the kids to play with in the gym.  If you have any toys you would like to donate or find any in yard sales this summer, please let Hillary Whaley know (814-233-8861).  Thank You!

The choir will be singing today and August 30 during the 10:30 worship service.

The Helping Hands Service Team next meeting is on August 6th in the Church Library. We meet the 1st Thursday of each month!

A Note of Thanks…

Thank you to all who helped with and/or attended the Retiree Lunch.  We served about 186 meals with 168 people eating at the Fellowship Center and 21 meals delivered to shut-in’s.  A special Thank You to the 21+ volunteers that made the meal possible.



THE SUPER SENIORS ARE GOING ON SAFARI!!  The Super Seniors will be travelling to the International Conservation Center in Fairhope on Thursday, Aug.6! We will be taking a wagon tour of the grounds, during which we will see elephants, camels and bison. Following the tour, we will be travelling to the Horn O Plenty Restaurant in Bedford for lunch. After lunch we will be touring the National Coverlet Museum, where we will see about 85 unique coverlets, many of which were made in the Bedford County area. We will be leaving from the church at 9:00 a.m. and travelling by car and the church van. The total cost will be $25/person, plus the cost of your meal. There will be 4 menu choices. There is a sign-up sheet in the hallway, on which you can select your menu choice.  Also, please indicate if you will be attending all 3 activities. This event is open to everyone, but we are limited to a total of 50. Please sign up as soon as possible so that we have an accurate count for the facilities we will be visiting. Make your plans to join us on a Super Senior Summer Safari!!

Payment is due today for those who are going on the trip to the International Conservation Center and the National Coverlet Museum on Thursday, August 6.  The total cost is $25 ($15 for the ICC and $10 for the Coverlet Museum). Please pay by check, made out to the Kingwood Church of God Super Seniors, and put it in Georgiann’s mailbox. You will be responsible for the cost of your meal that day at the Horn O Plenty restaurant. We will be leaving from the church at 9:00 a.m. that morning. If you are meeting us there, our reservations at the ICC are for 10:00 a.m.

Helping Hands Service Team
The Kingwood Helping Hands Ministry has had a remodel! We are now called the Helping Hands Service Team. This Sunday School group does several things.

  1. We arrange rides for folks who need one.
  2. We arrange for the pick-up of groceries and/or medications for those who are unable to get them.
  3. We send cards monthly to our Prayer Need list.
  4. We work on small outreach projects for our Nursing Home brothers and sisters.

We do this primarily for our church family. We will take suggestions, on a case-by-case basis, names of folks in the community, if a need should arise there. We are always willing to add anyone, church or community, to our card list.

Contact Heather Houghton for more info or needs.



Walking in Humility
July 26, 2026

Phil. 2:1-8 Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; 7 rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross!

Other texts: James 4:6, Prov. 3:34, Micah 6: 6-8
