Weekly Announcements

BUILDING PLANS REVEALING: After months of hard work and careful planning, our Building Committee is ready to share two building plans that are within reach of our potential means. This sharing will be done in a town hall meeting on April 19th after the second service. This is your opportunity to compare the designs, ask questions, and see projected cost estimates. We will then spend two months in prayer and discussion before voting on which option to proceed with on June 14th at the Voter's Assembly Meeting. Once we have the plan selected, our Fundraising Committee will begin the strategic work of raising the necessary capital. We look forward to seeing you there as we steward the future of our church together. 

MORTAGE NEWS: Here is an interesting note! Since we took out the loan in December 2021, the members of CTK have paid an extra $252,034.99 in principal. This shortens our loan to be paid off in October 2034. 

SPRING FEST: The Board of Education is hosting Spring Fest for children on April 12th during the 10:45am service! We will have a special themed lesson for Children's church and have a Butterfly release following the service! Every child will also receive a goody bag to take home! Our MDO kiddos will also be participating by singing some songs at the beginning of the service. It's sure to be a joy-filled Sunday!  

LADIES BIBLE STUDY: Our Tuesday Morning Ladies Bible Study will be starting a NEW study title “Promised Hope: Funding Peace in God’s Faithfulness” on April 14th. The book is $10 and will be yours to keep. This is a great opportunity to jump in and join this group! They meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month from 10am – 11:30am. If you are interested in joining and need to purchase the book, please contact Allison Daniels.

CLUB FOR A CAUSE: Waxahachie is getting a BJ’s Wholesale Club Store and offering what they call Club for a Cause. Christ the King has received a special link and code, offering a discount on a membership card AND a portion will go back to CTK and support King’s Kids MDO!! Learn more about the membership levels and sign up here or use the QR Code below:

EVANGELIST TRAINING: We are hosting a nine-week evangelism training program every other Sunday in our fellowship hall from April 12th [PLEASE NOTE THE DATE CHANGE] through August 23rd at 12:15 p.m. It is led by Laura Sanders, who is a member of our church and the lead evangelist trainer for our area. The program is designed to help participants grow in their confidence to share the Gospel with others. There is no cost. The first meeting on April 19th is an informational meeting only. Come to hear more and get any of your questions answered.

CARD MINISTRY: We want to continue our birthday and anniversary card ministry, as it remains a meaningful way to connect and care for one another. However, due to the rising cost of postage, we will begin placing cards in congregation members’ personal mailboxes at church. Please remember to check your mailbox regularly so you don’t miss any messages of encouragement or care.

ATTENDANCE:  We are truly grateful for your presence for Maundy Thursday (77), Good Friday (73), Cantata (115) and the Easter Sunrise Service (60). 

EASTER LILIES: Those who purchased Easter Lilies please feel free to take them home.
