Door prize donations are needed for the Wild Game Dinner – if you would be willing to make a donation – please give it to Jeff Peck or Nick Faidley.

WILD GAME DINNER TICKETS are available today from Brad Pletcher, Jeff Peck or Nick Faidley.  Tickets are free but you need a ticket to attend.

There is a container for money gifts for Amber (Peck) Johnson during her cancer journey in the vestibule.  Please make checks payable to Kingwood Church of God.

This month the youth group will be collecting bottles of laundry detergent for the Rockwood Area School District Student Resource Room. For those who do not know, there is a washer and dryer on site at the school. This allows students to have access to clean clothing and for donated items to be washed before students receive them. Detergent can be any size or brand but would ask that it is fragrance free so any student can use it. There will be a marked box near the coat rack for detergent donations. Thank you for supporting the students in our local community!



Piano players are needed for Jr. Church.  If you would be willing to help, please contact Cheryl Pletcher.

Are you looking for a way to help out with our young ones in church? We are looking for 5 couples to be ministry partners for the Jr. Church opening. As a couple, you would lead them in songs, and give a short introductory lesson, for example an object lesson. This all should last between 20 and 30 minutes. Then you would be able to come up for the adult worship service. If we are able to get 5 more couples, you would only be responsible for 2 months out of the year. And the older children, starting in January, will only be in Jr. Church the 2nd, 3rd and 4th weeks. So, this will only be 3 weeks out of the month. Your months can be consecutive or spaced out. If this ministry speaks to you, there is a sign up sheet in the vestibule. If you have any questions, see Larry or Melissa Vough.

There is a sign-up sheet in the vestibule for anyone who is willing to assist in the Jr. Church PreK/Kindergarten class. The responsibilities would include crowd control, assisting children in the classroom, and taking children to the restroom.

It’s time again for Gifts of Love for our college students and military. Snack items, Valentine cards, etc. can be placed in the container in the vestibule. There is a sheet with names and addresses which needs to be updated. Please delete any who are no longer in school or the military and add other relatives, friends, or neighbors.

The Super Seniors breakfast will be held at Eat n Park on March 13th, 2025, at 9:30 a.m. This is our annual meeting to announce all the activities for the year. We also would like for you to come with some ideas that you would like to see the group do in the coming years. This is always a great time to get together for some fellowship and of course—Food!! There is a signup sheet on the table in the vestibule. Deadline to sign up is March 9th. Hope to see you there!

A committee is being formed to make a new church directory.  If you have an interest in helping this committee – please contact Renee Moore.

A new church directory is being planned for this spring. Please start looking for any pictures you may have of Sunday School or church activities. There will also be a paper in the vestibule for you to sign your name, address, any phone numbers and e mails you would like to have included in the directory. Thank you.



Final Navajo Mission Trip Fundraiser
There is a Christmas Tree in the vestibule with “Ornaments” on it. Each item is something we need for the Homeless Bags we are making and the 2 days of VBS at the Gamerco and Hooghan Church. Please take an ornament (or more!) and place it with the money into an envelope and give to Cheryl.

DO NOT PURCHASE THE ITEMS.
All checks should be made out to the Kingwood COG.
Thank you for your amazing support!

SERMON NOTES

Actions of a Healthy Disciple
February 9, 2025

2 Tim 2:14-17 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Other Scriptures: Ps. 119: 1,11, 33, 105, 1 Chron. 25:8, Is. 8:16, 50:4, 54:13, 1 Sam. 19:20-24, Ezra 6:6,11, 7:9-10



REFLECTION

Where are you on a sale of 1-10 for reading and studying your Bible daily? 1 being I don’t to 10 being I am there every day.

Where are you 1-10 in obeying what you hear God say in scripture?

What do you hear God saying about this?

Regardless of where you are now on tat 1-10 scale, how will you move the needle more toward 10?



Nurseries 

  • There is an unstaffed nursery for babies located on the same floor as the sanctuary that may be used at any time.
  • There is an unstaffed nursery for children up through the age of 3 located downstairs in room 1.
  • Both nurseries have a closed-circuit TV through which you can watch the worship service.

Jr. Church (10:30 Morning Worship Service) 

  • We offer a Jr. Church program during the entire 10:30 Morning Worship Service downstairs in the social room for children age 3 up to and including 6th grade.

Sunday School (9:30)

  •  We have classes for children (beginning when they are old enough to walk), youth, and adults. If your child is not old enough to walk, feel free to take him/her with you to your class. For more info, please see either the Sunday School brochure or the Welcome Packet. They are located in the pew rack and on a table in the hallway.

Want to know more about our church?

  •  There are folders with more info about our church in the racks of each pew and on a table in the hallway. Please take one home with you and check it out.
