• KBC ANGELS - Spiritual Dance Team Bonnie Swanson is the director of this team. Rehearsals are most Sundays after worship service.
  The KBC Angels bring a special dimension to our worship services when they dance. For eight years, these young ladies have been giving time and energy to enhance our times of worship. There is a lot that has to happen before we can see them in worship, and it needs many hands to help. If you appreciate this special ministry for and by these young ladies, we could use your help in continuing this wonderful opportunity. Director Bonnie Swanson would appreciate a few adults who could help with phone calls, costumes, and rehearsal assistance, among other items. If you're interested in helping the KBC Angels ministry in any of these ways, please contact Bonnie Swanson, Beverly Benzino or the church office for more information. Your continuing support of our KBC Angels is appreciated!
• Youth Recycling Projects - The youth have two bins to put your old ink cartridges in, one in the foyer upstairs and one by the water fountain in the lower level. Help them by bringing in your used cartridges.  We can accept all except Epson ink cartridges.  You can also recycle old cell phones to support the youth (phones only), and they can be deposited in one of the collection boxes located outside the office upstairs or in the hallway near the Fellowship Hall. Thank you for supporting the youth.
• BJs Wholesale Membership The church membership runs from February to February. If you who have the KBC membership currently, all you have to do is pay at the regular check out to renew your card.
