Father’s Day Transformation


Father’s Day Transformation
In light of our thinking, as a church, how to be FOR Kendallville we have decided to do Mother’s and Father’s Day differently. Through this effort on Mother’s Day we raised $1000 for Life and Family Services, We, as a church, also believe in supporting fathers of all kinds—biological fathers, foster and adoptive fathers, coaches, mentors, and spiritual fathers. So because of this we are going to make a gift in honor of fathers of all types to Life and Family Services to help fathers in our community. This is a great opportunity for us to show we are FOR Kendallville. We will have a representative on June 3rd from Life and Family Services join us to share about their marvelous father’s programs and how we can help them lift up fathers in our community. We will take up special offerings on June 3rd (with communion) and June 17th (Father’s Day) to do something special for our fathers in Kendallville.

The kids sing with such passion and meaning that their hope of overcoming tragedy and the life-changing effects of an education

Pastor Angie's In-Spire-ations April 2019

Last month, I asked you to reflect on three questions during Lent: What will you do…learn…or become in the liminal space between now and July?   What will you let go of so that your hands are free to embrace something new? What can we do together that will make us even stronger when our new pastor arrives? It has been a challenging month for many of us personally, professionally and as a church family coming to terms with Chris moving and a new pastor coming…and then NOT coming.   The word “mulligan” just might be our buzz word for a little while!   I’m not generally a Wikipedia fan, but I looked up the word mulligan and this is what it said, “A mulligan is a second chance to perform an action, usually after the first chance went wrong through bad luck or a blunder. Its best-known meaning is in golf, whereby a player is informally allowed to replay a stroke, even though this is against the formal rules of golf.” When I think of mulligan, I remember the story of mull
