Many Hands Make Light Work
“Many Hands Make Light Work” this old adage is certainly true when it comes to Christ the King’s membership pitching in to show “holy hospitality” at Room in the Inn each month.

Never Forget!
Never Forget! We cannot and will not forget to honor volunteers. I’m reminded of volunteers we can relate to in tangible ways.

In the Lord’s Army
At our church, Emmanuel Lutheran in Hermitage, it’s not uncommon to see some unusual items up near the altar when we arrive for worship. We know they are probably props for Pastor Enko’s Children’s Message. However, on a recent Sunday the spread was more lavish than usual. There was a six foot table covered with all […]
