https://kccwired.churchcenter.com/people/forms/45172Sermon Series: Through New Eyes
Sermon Title: A Tree is Just a Tree Until it Isn't
Speaker: Andy Bratton
Big Idea: God’s message to Jonah was bigger than one city in sin and their need for repentance. God’s message to Jonah is about the broader story of Israel. In every circumstance we need to look through Biblical eyes and how God may be speaking to us.

Jonah 3:1-5

Kindergarten to 2nd Grade - Beginning September 25
W.A.S.P. Registration
The Wednesday After School Program (W.A.S.P.) at the Kalkaska Church of Christ is for children from Kindergarten to 2nd grade.
"I am so excited for another year of WASP at KCC! Every week your kids will have a snack, play games, and learn more about God. I have an amazing group of teachers this year and I can’t wait to start the year!
We have a Facebook group called KCC WASP Parents group that I ask all of you to join if you can. This is a great place for us to communicate. It is a private group with only the parents in it so I will occasionally share pictures of your kids in that group. If this is not ok with you, please let me know.
We follow the school calendar so if there is no school, there is no WASP."
-Sara Blasko, Children's Ministry Director
