KAIROS OUTSIDE is a ministry for women whose lives have been impacted by having a relative or loved one in prison, either in the past or at the present time. These women are often forgotten or neglected by society, and are left behind to provide for themselves and their children, through no fault of their own. KO ministry provides a weekend of sharing Christ's love, forgiveness, and hope for these women. Many of the guests say that they felt like nobody loved them or cared about their families and these spiritual weekends make them feel loved and give them a new sense of worth. The next KAIROS OUTSIDE weekend will take place November 21-23, 2014, at a hotel on Palm Beach Lakes Blvd, WPB. There is no cost for the guests and we welcome any women 18 or older who would like to attend. Rhonda Danielson will be part of the team that is planning the weekend and she will be happy to provide applications. Just give her a call as soon as possible (561-575-2556 or 561-602-2709) for more information. Theme Bible verse for the KO weekend will be 1 Corinthians 13:7 - Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful and endures through every circumstance. 7 The Saints of the HSLC Congregation † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † † Sarah Applegate: Grandparents Earl & Pat Cook; Mentor Louise Severence Karla Dailing: Parents Elva & Courtney Berger Kirt Danielson: Roy & Helen Danielson, Pastor David Wolber, Carl Grabowski Jean Dempsey: Husband Russell Dempsey Carol Entrekin: Amos & Maren Entrekin Karen Hudson: Helen Storch Geri Jenkins: Parents John & Dorothy Luke Fred Kempel: Dorothy Kempel Mac: Pastor John Nelson, Grandpa Erica Mardis: Florence Carlig Mary Kay McNally: Mother Sara McNally David & Lorraine Murray: Pastor Earl Henley, Dave’s Parents Richard & Ella Murray, and Lorriane’s Parents Erich & Helen Berg Gayle Retkowski: Brother William McConighen Karen Reymann: Grandmother Amelia Dowgird Claire Roche: Husband John Roche and Sister Audrey Weiss Linda Schuckman: Ernest & Gloria Schuckman Cindy Shinn: Mother Elizabeth Christman Walt Shinn: Father Grover Shinn Dot Sisco: John Sisco & Roy Fenske Sandra Spain: Parents Lillian & Harry Spanin Hazel Tanenbaum: Michael Christopher Smith Susan Van Lindt: Grandmother Matilda Pully Susie Van Pelt: Sunday School teacher Louise Nemeth, Parents Helen & David Van Pelt Connie Ward: Mother Amelia Dowgird Margaret MacDonald, Allan MacDonald, Michaeline Caracciolo, Joseph Sellers, Alice Ann Downey, Joseph Herot If you have returned for the winter season, please fill out a yellow message card to let the church office know.
