Sunday, October 24, is KICY Radio 100% Sunday. What does 100% mean? KICY Radio in Nome, Alaska, is affiliated with the Covenant Church, and once a year they seek denomination-wide donations of $1.00 from 100% of those in a Covenant Church on Sunday morning.

This supports ¼ of their budget each year. The cost of living is expensive, and their electricity costs alone are $11,500/month. This radio station broadcasts the Good News to western Alaska and Russia Far East.

Lake Union Church will take up a special, free-will offering after the 9 am service on Sunday, October 24. We thank you, in advance, for supporting this important ministry!

Fall Bible Study: The Journey of Discipleship

Are we willing to take the journey to embrace discipleship? This is the question we will be looking at throughout our Fall Bible Study in the Gospel of Mark. Join us each week as we follow Jesus and his disciples from Galilee to Jerusalem and learn what it means to follow Christ in our lives. All are welcome to join us on Mondays at 7:00 pm starting September 13 in the church Fellowship Hall.

Lake Union Church has a long-time commitment to sending youth to Lake Beauty Bible Camp through fully-funded registration. Donations from the church, parents, and friends contribute to this ongoing ministry.  

Recently, the family and friends of Shelby Bainey established the "Shelby Bainey Camp Fund" in honor and memory of Shelby. As of September 26, donations to this fund are $6,447. These funds will support Lake Union Youth attending camp. 

We share her testimony below and give thanks to Brad and the family for this legacy fund.

Shelby Bainey Bible Camp Fund

"Summertime with our maternal grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins gave my siblings and I a precious infusion of love, laughter, personal and spiritual growth.

They gave us the gift of church camp at Lake Koronis in 1967 where I met the Lord Jesus Christ and embarked on a journey of faith that positively and forever changed my life and the lives of my siblings, on this side of Heaven and for eternity.

Church Camp was an opportunity for me to step out of the challenges and stress of daily life and escape to a retreat filled with the love, joy, and inspiration of God’s Word. There, I encountered and embraced Jesus Christ and the truth of the Gospel in a way that equipped and empowered my new life in Him. It’s been a fantastic journey!

A well-founded evangelical church camp can build and foster life-long relationships, deliver hope, and has the power to change your life forever through the grace and truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
