THE MAKER'S SPACE

This season we will be once again using ancient spiritual discipline practices along with art to slow ourselves and allow space to speak with and hear from God.

Come and allow yourself to breathe and listen to what God has to say to you as we praise Him exploring word art as demonstrated in Heather Holdsworth's new book "Landscape of Hope: an Illustrated Journey Into the Psalms.' We will meet in Munson Hall on Sunday, Oct. 8, from 5-7pm

All are welcome and free to bring neighbors and friends. 

Please RSVP to 2013themakersspace@gmail.com so we have enough supplies.

MISSIONS FOCUS

Partner Highlight
One of the service agencies that we support—KICY—broadcasts two radio stations from its studios in Nome, Alaska. KICY AM-850, which began broadcasting to western Alaska on Easter Sunday in 1960, serves the entire region with news, weather, music, Native singing, and Bible teaching programs.

ICY 100.3 FM serves Nome and the surrounding community with 24-hr Christian music, and has a morning show with news, weather, and trivia contests. Overnight the FM radio station signal also broadcasts Christian music and teaching, in Russian, about 2,000 miles into mainland Russia.

Owned and operated by Arctic Broadcasting Association, Inc., a 501(c)3 non-profit affiliated corporation of the Evangelical Covenant Church, KICY is staffed entirely by volunteers. Learn more about this impressive ministry here.
