CHURCH IS HAPPENING! Sunday, June 21, 2026 at 10 AM, in person or online. ALL ARE WELCOME.

Anticipating Father's Day coming up on Sunday, I recently crowd-sourced the question: What's the best "Dad Advice" you've ever gotten (or given), and the many, many answers I got back were heart-warming, wise, unflinchingly practical, and funny. We'll hear some of them on Sunday threaded throughout my sermon entitled, “The Sparrow Principle: Abba’s Guide to True Worth." God, the fount of all wisdom, the one whom Jesus called Abba, knows your FULL worth -- just as you are -- and loves you beyond measure.

Leigh Huber, our Music Director, will lead us in song.
David Allmer will be our Liturgist.
Fellowship Coffee Hour: Special Father's Day goodies courtesy of the womenfolk.

On behalf of CCK, thank you to Keyport Mayor Rose Araneo, the Keyport Councilmembers, and the Keyport Juneteenth Committee for the invitation to be a part of this moving, beautiful, and well-attended Juneteenth Commemoration today at the waterfront. The weather was perfect, the wind off the waters was steady, and the speakers and performers all contributed to make the day profound and joyous. Thank you for inviting me to join in. —Pastor Grace

Dear Congregation & Friends,

You may have received a scam email posing as "Rev. Grace Modla" in the last few days asking for gift cards for "our diligent staff."

Please be advised that that email was NOT sent by Pastor Grace or CCK. It is part of a phishing scam.

If you received any such scam email, please delete it immediately and do not click on any links.

Hello Friends!
A REMINDER from the New Jersey Association of the UCC -- and it's FREE!
The Lay Worship Leaders Institute will start next month. The group is designed to increase the number of lay people who can help with pulpit supply coverage - either for their own church or with other UCC churches in need.

A total of 30 slots are available. Folks from around the country are expressing interest as well. There are 20 of the 30 slots for NJ/CAC lay people ON RESERVE.

This FREE offering will be led by a former worship and liturgy professor. Contact Rev. Craig Peterson or Pastor Grace Modla if you're interested.

“There isn’t anyone you couldn’t love once you’ve heard their story." ― Sister Mary Lou Kownacki (quoted by Fred Rogers)

Keep Jesus in sight. Stay close. Follow Him.

And if you're feeling a little light on peace within yourself, lean on the peace of Christ. He's keeping YOU in His sight.

(from Pastor Grace's sermon today).
