Spaghetti Dinner, Student & Silent Auction- February 18
This Sunday, February 18 from 5-7PM is our first annual Spaghetti Dinner/Student Auction fundraiser.  All proceeds from this event will go toward a life-changing week of camp for our middle and high school students. At this event, you and your family and friends will experience exceptional service along with amazing food. In addition, you also get a chance to play a part in supporting our students. The student auction portion of this event has been created for our student to be auctioned off for a workday within a three-week window of the event. Our students are skilled in areas like cleaning, rearranging and moving things. They are also able to wash cars and do yard work. These workdays will be scheduled for a 4-hour shift on a Saturday morning. So, come ready to bid on your group and remember that these funds are going to a great cause!

El Boletín Informativo de la Iglesia


Celebrando la Recuperación
Te invitamos a venir y compartir del poder de sanidad de Dios todos los Viernes a las 6:30 pm.  Encontrarás que eres bienvenido(a) por otras personas que cada semana vienen a recuperarse de sus dolores, hábitos y complejos.

Estudios de Pasos a Seguir para Celebrar la Recuperacion
Celebrando la Recuperación es un ministerio donde aplicas los 8 principios bíblicos basados en las beatitudes, permitiendo que el Señor trabaje en nosotros proveyendo Su poder de sanidad. Este studio ayudará a las personas a cambiar espiritualmente trabajando con principios bíblicos. Si estás interesado en trabajar en tus heridas, hábitos y complejos, favor de firmar en la mesa de conección  para unirte a este nuevo grupo de studio. Las clases comenzarán el domingo 5 de Febrero.  Libros 1 al 4. Damas comienzan a las 9:30 en la oficina de Jim y los caballeros a las 11:00 am en el cuarto   205.

¿No Te Pierdas Las Bendiciones De Servir
A veces, en nuestro fervor bíblico para enfatizar que la salvación no es por obras, no somos capaces de apreciar plenamente que hemos sido salvados para hacer buenas obras (Efesios 2:10). De hecho, Dios te ha colocado en tu iglesia con el fin de que tú puedas ser edificado, de modo que puedas trabajar y servirle. Si nos permitimos seguir siendo sedentarios esto significa que estamos descuidando el mismo propósito de Dios para nuestra salvación y de otros. Al servir, sigues y te comportas como Jesús y con eso también lo glorificamos. Si usted está interesado en servir como líder de una célula, coordinador de voluntarios, equipo de bienvenido o en cualquier capacidad, por favor, marque el lado reverso de la tarjeta de asistencia y díganos en que área de servicio le gustaría participar o contáctese con Pastor Tom Martínez al 407.556.5016 o Tom.Martinez@kissimmeechristianchurch.org.

Mujeres en Quietud
Mujeres en Quietud invita a mujeres de todas las caminatas de vida a aprender a confiar en Dios en medio de sus circunstancias mientras nos ministramos las unas a las otras aprender quién es nuestro Padre y cuánto nos ama así podemos aprender a confiar en Él más profundamente, no importa lo que estemos enfrentando. Nuestras circunstancias cambian, pero el amor de Dios y su fidelidad son constantes. Durante nuestro tiempo juntas:
·       Oraremos las unas por las otras 
·       Aprenderemos a tener una relación más íntima con Dios
·       Ministraremos a mujeres que están sufriendo
·       Animaremos y apoyaremos nos las unas a las otras con la verdad de la Palabra de Dios
·       Aprenderemos a cultivar una relación más profundo con nuestro Señor
