BE THE CHURCH

June 1st is likely to pass as a very quiet anniversary in the life of our congregation,

but to me, to countless parents, and to hundreds of children, June 1st is a really

important day. June 1st will mark the 10th Anniversary of Miss. Kristen’s ministry

as our Nursery Director.

Please don’t let the significance of this special day escape you. Our church is

blessed beyond belief to have Kristen with us, especially for a whole decade now.

When our family first moved to Kirkwood, my son was 11-months old. Like all

parents, we were unsure and cautious about leaving such a little one in the nursery.

Miss. Kristen embraced him immediately, gently teaching him, loving him, and

helping him to grow in faith --- all before he even turned 1! To the Lees, Miss.

Kristen is family!

Miss. Kristen has done the same exact thing for almost every child in this

congregation for the last ten years. She marks all of their milestones --- first steps,

first smiles, first words, first days of school, and especially birthdays. At

Christmas, she helps these little ones make precious and priceless gifts for their

parents and even includes some photographs that she’s captured when we weren’t

looking. She has come out from the nursery to attend birthday parties and recitals

all over Bradenton and she is a fervent prayer warrior for our little ones. Being the

Nursery Director is not just a job to Miss. Kristen, it’s a ministry and it’s one of the

most important ministries that we will ever have as a church.

Think about what happens in the life of a child in 10 years. The infants that she

started with will begin middle school in the fall! Miss. Kristen’s ministry is one

that upholds part of the promise that we make to our children in baptism --- that

from the cradle, we will do everything we can to help them grow into the love of

Christ. She stands at the starting line of our little one’s faith journeys and is an

incredible teacher and cheerleader for them.

Despite the fact that Miss. Kristen has been here longer than any other current staff

member, she is so quiet and so humble that much of our congregation has never

had the chance to meet her. But, it is very important that we take this time to

recognize her and give her our thanks for starting our smallest disciples out on the

right foot of faith!

Continued from page 1

Whether or not you’ve had a child whose life has been touched by the ministry of Miss. Kristen, we want to

encourage the entire congregation to reach out and say “thank you!” Her ministry is not just a benefit to the

entire church, it is a gift to the Kingdom of God. Would you please take a few minutes this month and send

Miss. Kristen a card of thanksgiving and encouragement?

Miss. Kristen

Kirkwood Presbyterian Church

6101 Cortez Road West

Bradenton, FL 34210

We love you, Miss. Kristen! Thanks for making KPC such a wonderful place for the little children to come!

"Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to

such as these." Matthew 19:14

In the Grip of Grace,

P.S. BIG NEWS!! This winter, MISS. Kristen becomes MRS. Kristen! Congratulations!

P AGE 2 KIRKWOOD KRONICLE

LET THE CHILDREN COME

“The golden gift of childhood lasts a lifetime if you try

The simple trusting faith they hold keeps scholars mystified

And so the Lord adopts us as His daughters and His sons

The Kingdom is for Children

So please let the children come

Let the children come

Don't dare drive them away

And then the kingdom comes

Hear the holy, foolish things they say

The springtime of their life decides

the adults they'll become

So let the children come

Please let the children come.”

~ Michael Card

CONGRATULATIONS to KPC’s newest elders . . .

E. DENNIS OSTHOLTHOFF

I’m a native Cincinnatian where I belonged to Pilgrim United Church of

Christ all my life. I enjoyed my years in scouting where I rose to Eagle

Scout and received the Order of the Arrow award. I came to Florida as

a snowbird in 2006 and have been attending Kirkwood ever since. Now

that I am no longer a snowbird I decided several years ago to become a

member. I have a wonderful sister, Dana, her husband Richard and

their children, my nephew and niece. I am also uncle to my 6 year old

grandniece, Zoe.

I taught in a local school district for 35 years, and I coached girl’s bas-

ketball and softball for many years. I played many different sports,

some of my favorites were tennis, basketball, baseball and golf. How-

ever, golf is the only sport I currently participate in and might I add . . .

am not so good. I cheer for the Reds (they need a lot of help), the Ben-

gals and the University of Cincinnati Bearcats. I was on the board of Teacher’s Annuity & Aid Association for

14 years, an organization that helps retired teachers.

Having never married, I dote on my nephew and niece who are like my own children. I am looking forward to

serve as an Elder on Session.

Why it is important to me to be serving the Kirkwood Church in this way . . .

The Church … this Church … is important. Providing funds to keep doors open is important. That is why I

pledge. Having people to serve as Christ’s hands and feet to carry out the programs of the Church and to serve

this needy world is important that is why I became an Elder.

TAYLOR BERKEY

I am a 24 year old Certified Dental Assistant and worship team member at The Well. I was adopted from

Asuncion, Paraguay by a single mother and I have been attending Kirkwood for 22 years.

Why it is important to me to be serving the Kirkwood Church in this way . . .

Serving on session is important to me because I have seen Kirkwood through all its ups and downs over the

years and watching the church grow and evolve to what it is is one of the greatest things in the world, I only

want it to get better and be a part of the journey.

BOB FREDERICKS

I moved to Florida from Wayne, New Jersey in 1976 with my par-

ents and have been a member of Kirkwood for thirty five years.

Actually, I started in the Girls Club days! My daughter was the

first child born in the congregation.

Why it is important to me to be serving the Kirkwood Church in

this way . . .

Because I love being a member and I enjoy serving the Church.

CAROL SCHULZE

I am a retired Nursery School teacher and worker from the phone

company. Originally from New York, I worked for the phone

company there. After moving to Florida, I worked for the phone

company in Sarasota and at a church preschool for about ten

years.

Why it is important to me to be serving the Kirkwood Church in

this way . . .

With Joy in my heart I take this office. My anticipation of this

job is looking forward to things in the life of this Church.

DAN BROCKMAN

I was born a long time ago in Independence, Missouri. I grew up

with my Mother, Sister and Grandparents. At age 23 years I left

home to serve in the US Army Intelligence Corps. Serving in Augus-

ta, GA I met a very beautiful lady with whom I fell in love. This was

February 1966, five months before my discharge. The day after dis-

charge she and I were married. Together with her two children we

moved back to Independence where we lived until 1986 when we

moved to Florida. A few years back we discovered Kirkwood and

Pastor Hope and found our new Church home.

"Why is it important to me to be serving the Kirkwood Church in this

way . . .

As an Elder at Kirkwood I will be available to the Church and to the

members of the Church as needed, as well as representing the Church

at various functions. This will bring me closer not only to Kirkwood,

but to our Lord, making me a better Christian.

Finance Team Report

A few weeks ago, Pastor Hope stood before the elders of 3 different churches as they gathered in our fellowship hall for a meeting. She started to explain all that was happening in the life of our church and the vision that we have to continually be expanding our mission and outreach to our community. She talked about lives that are being transformed in our congregation through preaching, through prayer, through opportunities to serve and be in community. An elder from one of the other congregations asked about the size of our budget. When we told them (and it was less than 1/3 of the other churches) the elders were in complete awe of what God

has been able to do in this place in spite of our financial circumstances.

Last week the Finance Team was meeting when a whole group of middle school students walked by the office windows. That group met up with other kids inside and by the end of the evening almost 40 students had been fed and took the opportunity to learn about

God and His work in their lives. This place changes lives every single day!

We cannot do it at such a high level without the continued support of all participants in the life of the church. It takes $34,000 a month to meet our very basic budget. In the month of April, those contributions came to $28,783. Sacrifices were made on the parts

of our staff and the ministries they lead so that our insurance premium and our mission commitments could be honored.

As we plan for the future, including an expansion of staff that will benefit both children and adults, we need to know that congregation is with us and is just as excited about God’s vision for our church as we are. We believe that passion will reveal itself in our giving.

“Where your heart is, there your treasure shall be also.” Matthew 6:21.

Our prayer is that your heart will be with God’s heart as we work together to be a witness for Christ in this community!

Summer Kickoff BBQ at Palma Sola Botanical Park

Join us on Sunday, June 12, at 5 pm, for a barbeque to celebrate the be-ginning of summer! We will have the burgers, hot dogs, and drinks, and ask that you bring a side dish to share. There is a playground for the kids, and nice restrooms and cov-ered seating for all! Maps and di-rections are available in the office and narthex. Please sign up in the office or narthex so we know how many to plan for! If you would like to help with this event, please email [email protected].

Our Daily Bread

On April 24, twelve volunteers (including five Girl Scouts and their leader) served up love and 175 meals at Our Daily Bread (ODB). So far this year, our ODB teams have volunteered 75 hours while feeding 530 hungry people in our area. Thanks to April’s team for including our Girl Scouts and helping them understand this

ministry! Also, we appreciate Robbin West for her years of dedicated leadership for our ODB teams! This summer we are grateful for volunteers who will step up to keep the ODB teams organized. Our church sends a team to serve meals on the fourth Sunday of the month and anyone is welcome to participate. The only requirements are to go with a loving heart and to wear closed toe shoes. Volunteers serve at ODB from 9:30 until 11:30 a.m. Sign up today to join the team. Serve others and be blessed!

Monthly Mission Cart Collections

The April Mission Cart collection for Community Haven for Adults and Children with Disabilities was estimated to value $424.43. Thank you to each KPC missionary (you know who you are!) who contributed to the needs of this local nonprofit.

June’s collection will be dedicated to Turning Points. Turning Points provides a remarkable variety of services designed to assist families and individuals on their path to financial stability and independence. Turning Points is the one stop shop for preventing and ending homelessness in our community. We provide day resource services (such as hot showers, laundry services, clothing, and food), employment services, rental and utility assistance, veteran’s services (employment, housing and childcare), and free medical and dental care for the uninsured and underinsured. A total of 9,645 people received help last year with critical services targeted to the essential needs of people in crisis. Turning Points can only provide this high standard of service because of our caring, compassionate volunteers and strong community support. The donations that we receive from Kirkwood make a positive difference for the men, women and children who are struggling with issues of homelessness. Their clients need: gently used men, women and children’s jeans & children’s clothing & small blankets, NEW socks & underwear, insect repellent, trial size toiletries, toothpaste, toothbrushes, large shampoo, baby diapers sizes 3 - 6, books, & toys. At this time there is a desperate need for men’s NEW underwear (briefs and boxers) and men’s NEW socks. This is their biggest need at the current time.

We are especially grateful to all who cleaned out their cupboards and donated nonperishables to the Our Daily Bread’s Food Bank. Our special Spring Cleaning collection filled eight large boxes and was estimated in value at over $1,000, bringing our year to date Mission Cart Collections to $2,898.50. Each donation means that through God’s grace, one more person receives something they need. This special springtime in-house collection has ended.

Check the office bulletin board for other mission updates. The pace will slow down during the summer to allow time for planning for next Fall. Contact Carolyn to share your mission ideas.

Keeping you in prayer!

We need your help! As we transition to new leadership for our Our Daily

Bread (ODB) volunteers who serve meals on the fourth Sunday of every

month, we have become aware of a simple way those interested in this

mission opportunity can make the monthly preparations less stressful and

more time efficient. No matter if you have been going to Our Daily

Bread every month for years or are just exploring the experience for the

first time, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE sign up either at The Well, in

the Narthex, or the office! This gives us correct contact information read-

ily in our hands and eliminates last minute calls by our leaders to try to

recruit more necessary volunteers. Just sign up and be blessed and be a

blessing to work with!

Middle School Youth Group

Our middle school youth group will meet on Wednesday, June 1, 2016, from 6 to 7:15 pm, in

Pfrangle Hall. Ms. Debbie, Ms. Karen, Reid, Ron and Barbara Prete, and others will be there

to help the students learn about faith in Jesus and other great questions middle schoolers ask!

We will have dinner, games, and biblical teaching on life for middle schoolers! This will be

our last meeting of the school year, and then we transition to the summer schedule, with our

three trips.

High School Youth Group

Our high school youth group will meet on Wednesday, June 1, from 6:45 to 8 pm, in Pfrangle

Hall. The volunteer team and Reid will help make dinner, and lead the games and learning

about faith in Jesus! This will also be our last meeting of the school year, and then we transi-

tion to the summer schedule, with the high school mission trip as the first expedition, depart-

ing Kirkwood on June 17, and returning to the church late on June 24, 2016.

High School Mission Trip

This year, the church is sending nine high school students from Kirkwood to Taylorsville,

North Carolina, from June 17-24, 2016. The high school mission team will be serving in kids

clubs, doing construction and painting projects on local homes, helping with a nutrition pro-

gram, and partnering with local ministries. They are very grateful for your prayers, and for

your financial partnership to make this mission trip possible for them. Reid, plus Robert and

Debbie Zanders, will be the adult leaders on the trip, so please don’t forget to pray for them,

too. Please pray specifically for the safety and health of every single member of the mission

team. We can’t wait to report on what the Lord does in and through our lives when we get

back to Kirkwood!

Middle School Great Escape Camp

The church is sending some of our middle school students with Pastors Hope and Reid to

Great Escape, on the edge of Long Lake at the base of Florida’s beautiful Ocala National For-

est, July 28-August 2, 2016. There our students will meet up with hundreds of middle school

students from around the country for an awesome week of music, speakers, high energy

games and activities, and mealtimes with current and brand new friends they will meet there!

Please pray that each and every student has an awesome weeklong experience that will be in-

strumental in their young faith lives.

Surf and Serve 2016

We are so excited about our third year doing the Surf and Serve middle school outreach!

We are running this outreach experience from July 11 through July 15, 2016, from 9 am to

5 pm each day, departing from and returning to Kirkwood. We are excited to reach some

brand new Sugg Middle School students, as well as current Sugg students involved at

Kirkwood, and we need your prayers! Please pray that the teachers at Sugg would contin-

ue to encourage their students to join us, and that Nicholas Solario would be able to invite

lots of his classmates to take part in this wonderful experience of volunteering in our com-

munity in the morning, having lunch together each day, then going out to kayak with Surf-

erbus, visit MOTE Marine Laboratory for a special middle school tour, and be treated to a

special tour of the South Florida Museum by Ron and Barbara Prete and the staff there,

plus excursions to the Anna Maria Island beaches, and games and cool down activities

lunch on one of the Surf and Serve days, please let Reid know by calling 794-6229, or

emailing [email protected].

Youth Summer Trips Financial Update:

Hi Everyone,

Thank you for your generosity towards the middle and high school students connected to our

church. Without your support, we could not provide such meaningful summer camp and mis-

sion trip experiences for the students. Their families fund a significant portion of each stu-

dent’s trip, but in order to make it possible for our students to go, we as a church choose to

partner with the parents in sending the students out to serve the world, and grow in their faith

through these camp experiences. Here is an update as of 05/18/2016:

Total cost of the middle school Great Escape Camp and high school North Carolina mission

trip: $11,523 (estimate)

$1,000 budgeted

$4,005 non-fundraiser-related donations towards trips as of 05/18/2016

$5,125 payments from families of student participants

$436 sub sale fundraiser net gain

$1,112 lasagna dinner and trivia night net gain

Total income estimate as of 05/18/2016: $11,678.

Thank you for your continued generosity towards our students and investment in the next gen-

eration of students looking to follow Jesus and find their place in His kingdom.
