We welcome Jamie Clayton to the KOP Family

My name is Jamie Clayton, and I am a candidate in the Diaconate process.  Hymns ground me and serve as my footing. From childhood to present, my favorite is My Hope is Built on Nothing Less, but during this period of discernment, I have added another hymn, We’ve Come This Far by Faith. Hymns are the beginning, but when adding prayer and service I truly see and feel the solid foundation that is needed and developing in my spiritual life. I am a member of Holy Nativity Episcopal Church on Saint Simons Island and during the next couple of months I will be worshipping, serving and learning from you. Peace and Blessings.

THANK YOU to Sarah Manning, our speaker on 5/27.  She is an expert on birds and her presentation was informative, inspiring, and encouraging- us to be more sensitive to the needs of birds.  Also, thanks to Roberta Lindau for being our hostess.  Thanks to all in attendance (we had/were a good crowd)!! Our next gathering is on June 24 at noon at Wee Pub.  Our speaker, Carrie Paulk Gay, will address some of our concerns about residential and commercial development, housing shortages (?), population growth, transportation issues, and historic preservation, etc.  Carrie is a third generation realtor in Camden County.  She expressed a strong interest in being with us to share her knowledge and concerns about these areas. 

Please call Sue Kenyon at 912-552-2552 to let her know if you will be attending.

Children and Youth Information

King of Peace currently provides two educational opportunities for children and youth…

1. Children and Youth Church. This is for children from K – 12th grade. Children leave at the beginning of the sermon and return during the Passing of the Peace. Children go to the conference room and have a lesson based on the weekly bible reading. We are currently doing the one room schoolhouse model but will break into age appropriate groups as the need arises.
2. KOP – YC. This is a youth group for children from K – 12th. They meet the 2nd Sunday of each month from 4:00 – 6:00. This fall we will be using “ A Child’s Guide to the Holy Eucharist” as we explore the meaning of communion. We also have times of fellowship such as bonfire with s’mores, attending a Jacksonville Icemen hockey game and Christmas caroling.
