Sunday morning after the 9:00 a.m. service we had a Second Serving of good news and lots of delicious pancakes and sausage made by our own special Kirk team of ladies! Emma Tracey explained how a few young Pastors graduated from college and decided to move into Pontiac to minister to their community neighbors. They started community gardens, hold worship services in the backyard of the house they started in, tutor kids, offer summer programing and now own an elementary school across the street in which they are working to turn into a community center with local resources and adult & children's programming. After the presentation, 20+ Kirk kids worked together to make a meal for the Micah 6 staff and neighbors! We will be holding these outreach activities on the 3rd Sunday of every month for children and families! Please join us next month, November 21, after the 9 a.m. service to enjoy some special Scottish treats to celebrate our Kirk Anniversary and take part in a special outreach activity.
The Kirk took the pasta salads, jello salad and pudding made together by over 20 Kirk kids at our Second Serving activity Sunday and provided the food to 40 local Pontiac residents after a Micah 6 service held outdoors. We participate in this serving activity on the 3rd Sunday of every month at Micah 6. If interested in signing up for this please do so here.

This Sunday’s worship included members of The Junior Girls’ Choir, joined by new Kirk member and choir mom Carol Beth Litkouhi on the flute!
The Confirmation class spent the weekend at an @home retreat. We spent time bonding as a group, learning about church history, getting more familiar with the Kirk itself and the class got to meet and start bonding with their mentors. What a great start to their year together!
