King City United Church is a vibrant, caring community, and warmly invites one and all each Sunday at 10 a.m. to our worship service led by Rev. Bob Biggar, and to our Sunday school, followed by fellowship and refreshments.

We are located one block south of King Road and one block east of Keele Street at 50 Elizabeth Grove.

Reverend Biggar's sermon reflection for Feb. 18 will be The Hearty Yet Humble Church, and is based on Luke 6:17-26. There will be an opportunity to gather in the parlour following the service to explore the morning's sermon in depth through dialogue with the minister and with each other. You are also invited to join us at this service for a sharing of Holy Communion.

This Saturday (Feb. 17) all are welcome to be part of a Family Fun Evening for all ages, starting at 6 p.m., which will include a pasta dinner and games. To assist in finalizing arrangements, please call Serena at (905) 855-2707 to confirm your attendance.

Our Youth Groups are open to all youth in Grades 4 to 9, and provide a safe environment for the enjoyment of activities. For information on upcoming activities, please call Serena or Kent at (905) 833-2707.

The King City United Church choir and our new Director of Music Rosemary Karunaratne would still very much like to welcome additional members. We know you would enjoy both the music and the fellowship. Rehearsals are Thursday evenings for about an hour from 8 p.m. Please come and join us.

The first Sunday in Lent is Feb. 25 and will feature the next in our series of Contemporary Services.

This year's Lenten study will examine the last week of Jesus' ministry according to the Gospel of John, and will be offered by the minister Tuesday afternoons from 1:30 to 3 beginning Feb. 27. All are most welcome.
