Upcoming Events

Communicants

Communicants Parent Info Meeting: On Monday, March 4 from 7:30-8:30pm on Zoom, there will be a parent information meeting for those whose children may be ready to join the church as communing members. Travis and Dana will share some possible communicants options for this spring. We hope to offer a few “tracts” for children of various ages who may be ready to profess Jesus as their Lord and Savior and prepare to come to the Lord’s Supper. This will be a time to listen, ask questions and also to hear from you to help us gauge interest and shape the communicant offerings. Please email Dana Russell (dana@ctkcambridge.org) by 2/29 if you are interested in attending this information meeting and to receive the Zoom link.

Women's Brunch

Women of CTK! You’re invited to the CTK Women’s Christmas Brunch and White Elephant Gift swap! The party starts at 10a on Saturday, December 9th in the Fellowship Hall. Please bring a wrapped present, preferably something that you did not have to buy. It can be something silly or serious, something you want to re-home or handmade. The goal is to have fun together and be creative! Sign up for the potluck here. Questions? Email women@ctkcambridge.org.

CTK Work Day

It's time for some fall clean-up at the church! Join us from 12-2pm on Saturday Oct 28th (right before the Great Pumpkin Event) to help with lawn/garden care, painting, and other housekeeping. Please RSVP to deacons@ctkcambridge.org, and bring gardening/work gloves if you have them. If yard work isn't your thing, consider helping with set-up for the Great Pumpkin Event instead -- sign up for that here.

Book Club

Women’s Ministry Summer Book Club: A bestselling novel for nearly 10 years, Anthony Doerr's "All the Light We Cannot See" offers both historical and human insight woven into Pulitzer Prize-winning storytelling. It's a book that's hard to put down, which is why a Netflix series is currently in production. Join us this summer for a series of four informal book discussions, while getting to know some other CTK women. If you'd like to request a book and be included in the email list about dates and locations, please email Sarah Goodman. Our first meeting will be Thursday, June 15th at 7:30p.
