Welcome to October!
The Harvest Season is fully underway now! It's always a busy time for those who help take care of our country through farming! Thanks for all your hard work, folks!
Jesus also had something to say about farming and the Harvest. He stated, "The Harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the Harvest, to send forth laborers into His Harvest!" (Mt 9:37-38). What does God want to do in Beresford, South Dakota, Spiritually?
Discover some exciting ways God can use you during October! We'll be introducing the Greek Word: "Oikos".
"A group of 8 to 15 people with whom you share life most closely." They're your circle of greatest influence. How can you pray for them? Ask God to open doors to invite them to come to Church with you. Learn how to share your story about how God has changed your life! Discover how you can lead them to Christ!
Everything kicks off THIS SUNDAY October 18th @ 9:00 am!
Rev. Nathan Pruett, Outreach Pastor @ Central Church SF, will be sharing in Adult Sunday School (9 am) and in our Worship Service @ 10 am! Come and See What God is Doing here @ KCC!
Invite a Friend or Family Member to come with you! ​
I (Pastor Dan) am 3/4ths through my "Relational Wisdom" class!
This 8-week class is designed to launch us on a life-long journey to a God-centered, biblically-grounded way of treating others. I've learned so much already! Many Pastors and Church Members take this training to help
improve how we interact in all our relationships. I've been meeting on-line
with people from various parts of the United States! Very interesting!
My "Preaching Lab" class held their second monthly meeting Oct. 3rd.
We meet every month through June 2027. It's designed to help a small
group of pastors critique and encourage each other to become
more effective in our preaching. We take turns sharing our study outlines
(and critiquing 2 live sermons!) with the group at each gathering! It's an exciting way to learn together about how to share God's Word! I preach
next month (Nov. 7th)! Please keep praying for me as I prepare for these
classes and attend with small groups of "cohorts" (Fellow Students).
This is part of how I walk out what it means to "be a lifelong learner."
Let me finish with this question: What are you planning to do this
Autumn to become a stronger Follower of Christ? How will you become a
better version of you? Summer's over....what will Autumn bring for you?

"Connecting: Who's on Your Phone?"
Connecting is our word @ KCC for 2026! So who are you Connecting with right now? Whose numbers are on your phone? Did you ever stop to think: "Those may be the people God wants me to share with about Him?"
In these next 5 weeks, we're going to give you some tools to reach your "OIKOS" (8-15 people closest to you) . Every message will show you
Biblical examples of Connecting God's Way! Bring a Family Member/Friend!
