NEXT STEPS
We believe one of the best next steps in getting involved is joining one of our 3 T’s! Teams, Tables, and Trainings are an excellent way to find community, grow spiritually, and deepen your relationship with Jesus.
Let’s find the right fit for you!
-
We believe the best way to have meaningful relationships and deep connections is through teams. As you work towards a common goal with others, you will develop rich friendships that go beyond ministry.
There are many different teams you can join. Click HERE to check them out!
-
At the center of the Christian faith is a shared table. Communion is more than when we remember the body and blood of Jesus with the bread and wine. Communion extends beyond that and includes our communion with the body of Christ around the shared table of community.
Check out our TABLES! -
At Kfirst we believe that learning happens best in circles rather than rows. In a circle, every member has something to contribute and every member has something to learn. Each Training focuses on a specific topic and takes a deep dive into it.
Check out our current TRAININGS!
New to Following Jesus?
Deciding to follow Jesus is a big step and one we believe is best celebrated in community. We would love to hear about your decision and celebrate with you by sending you a small gift!
CURRENT SERIES
UNFILTERED JESUS
unfiltered/ 1. not having been passed through a filter. 2. not having been toned down, censored, or edited. unfiltered news sources.
Oftentimes when we read the words of Jesus, we want to filter them through our culture or our experience and translate them to be what we want Him to say. What we need to get back to is listening and digesting what He actually said, pure and unfiltered. Join us for this series as we unpack and explain some of the sayings and stories of Jesus – the sometimes hard-to-understand and hard-to-apply-to-life teachings and stories of Jesus that often to raise more questions than they answer. We need to understand these truths so we can live full and free lives in Jesus Christ.

WHO IS JESUS?
We invite you to a special training called “Who is Jesus?” happening on Sunday, December 8, at 9am. This training builds off of our “Unfiltered Jesus” series. In the training, We’ll explore why Jesus matters and what it means to follow Him.
Whether you’re new to faith or just looking to understand Jesus more fully, this conversation is open to anyone curious or looking to grow. We’ll cover questions like: Who was Jesus? What did He teach? And why is He still so important today?
Sign up today, bring a friend, and join us as we explore “Who is Jesus?”
Wednesday prayer
We are calling our church to an evening of prayer on the first Wednesday of every month. Join Pastor Dave in the worship center from seven to 8 o’clock each Wednesday as we call out to the Lord together in prayer over our city and our country.
KFIRST FOOD PANTRY
The Kfirst Food Pantry Team organizes food distribution to those in need in our community. The food pantry happens on the third Thursday of the month.
Volunteers are needed for the following areas: food ordering, drivers, grocery uploading, phone volunteers, set up and clean up, greeters, registration, food runners and packers, and prayer partners.
MY STORY
Stories are important for two reasons. First, they put into word what we’ve experienced to form gratitude in our hearts. They help us both appreciate and articulate the goodness of God. Second, the become the vehicle to reveal to others God’s faithfulness in the past. Stories remind us that God has been working in the past and He continues to work today.
