JOIN US FOR HOLY WEEK CELEBRATIONS
REFLECTING ON THE CROSS
On Friday, April 18th at 6:00 PM, join us for a time of deep reflection on Jesus’ sacrifice for us on the cross. We’ll gather in the Commons on campus for a meaningful worship service, partake in the Lord's Supper, and hear an inspiring message from Pastor Matt Akers.
EGG HUNT EXTRAVAGAZNZA
Bring the whole family for a day of fun at Sea Isle Park on Saturday, April 19th from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM! Our annual Easter Egg Hunt will feature egg hunting for all ages, exciting games, inflatable play zones, and tasty treats from local food trucks. It’s a great way to celebrate Easter with your little ones.
CELEBRATING THE RESURRECTION
On Sunday, April 21st at 10:30 AM, join us for a joyous celebration of Jesus’ resurrection at Kirby Woods. Enjoy powerful music led by our worship choir and hear a message of hope that the resurrection brings. Childcare will be available for younger children.
GET Involved
Most of our Bible Studies meet during the “Sunday School” hour each Sunday at 9:00am. Choose the class that best fits your age or stage of life, and plug into fellowship with other believers who want to study the Bible together. We have a nursery and children’s classes so bring the kids with you!
SUNDAY EVENING TABLE TALK
Table Talk takes place every Sunday Night at 5:00pm in the Commons. It’s an opportunity to combine both large and small group discussion, as well as discuss key takeaways from the morning message with the rest of church. Don’t miss this encouraging time to hear what God is teaching other members of KWBC, and to dive deeper than what can be relayed in a single sermon. Bring your Bible and your notes from the morning message!
Our Preschool and Kids Ministry exists to show children the love of Jesus and how they can live for him. While creating a secure and fun atmosphere, we teach your children principles found in the Bible by explaining those truths on a level they can understand and apply to their life. We provide nursery and kids programs during all of our weekly church gathering times.
Our Student Ministry meets every Wednesday at 6:15pm in the W311). During this time our students will study a book of the Bible together, worship, and have fun playing games. Our students also have many special events throughout the year where they’ll get to spend extra time getting to know each out and serving together.
WHAT’S HAPPENING AT KIRBY WOODS
One of the most underrated aspects of the Book of Acts is its conclusion, where Paul is taken captive, put on trial, and sent to Rome. Join us on Sunday, March 9th, at 10:30am as we begin the final segment of our multi-year series on Acts with a new series titled “Church on Trial.”
MEMORIZE THE VERSE OF THE MONTH
Each month, we try to memorize a new verse together! Our verse for March is Acts 21:13. Click here to download a picture of this verse that you can use as a background on your phone to help you memorize it!
WEDNESDAY NIGHTS
Every Wednesday, we have dinner in the Commons from 5 to 6:15pm. If you would like for us to order you dinner, please rsvp on the Church Center app. Afterwards, we will have an evangelism training class for adults, youth group, and kids ministry at 6:15pm.
Every week, our prayer team develops a guide to help you in your daily prayer life. You can find this guide over on our prayer page or sign up for our email blast to automatically receive it each week.
