OUR PASTOR
Pastor Dave joined Kfirst as Lead Pastor in April of 2009. Dave’s vision is to see Kfirst as a vibrant, life-giving community that makes it simple for people to find and follow Jesus. He loves teaching and preaching, and his passion for ministry is based on healthy relationships.
Pastor Dave and his wife, Anne, have been married for over 26 years and have three children: Camryn, Ethan, and Josh.
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
UNOFFENDABLE
In our world, being offended is something that seems to happen quite often. In this series, we will look at one of the most deceptive traps Satan uses to pull us away from God – offense. An offense can sever relationships, root bitterness into our hearts, and pull us away from God’s will for our lives. But what if, even when we are offended, we don’t take the bait offense gives us? What if there was a way to break free from an offense?

Renew
If you’re a foster or adoptive family, we’d love to invite you to join our Renew Table. It’s a place where families can share stories, pray together, and encourage one another. Renew meets on the second Thursday of every month in the evening.
We’re also looking for a few volunteers who can come alongside these families by helping with childcare during the gatherings.
If you’d like to be part of Renew, or if you’d like to volunteer, you can sign up on the Church Center app or at the link below.
tailgate
Hey Kfirst family! We’ve got something fun coming up that you won’t want to miss. On Sunday, October 12, right after service, we’re throwing a Tailgate Party! Here’s the game plan: bring your own food, and we’ll have grills fired up and ready for you to use. We’ll be set up in the back parking lot, so that’s where you’ll want to head after service. And of course, it wouldn’t be a tailgate without jerseys—so throw on your favorite team’s gear and come ready to hang out! It’s all about food, fun, and connecting with each other—so stick around after service and let’s make it a great Sunday together. We’ll see you at the tailgate!
NEXT
A new session of Next is happening on October 12 and 19 at 9am. Next is an opportunity to learn more about Kfirst, how you can find your fit in the community, and take your next steps towards getting involved. Next is also one of our steps toward Partnership. If you are interested in learning more about Kfirst or how you can get involved, or you’re ready to pursue partnership and haven’t already attended Next, we would encourage you to sign up today at the link below.
baptism
Water Baptism is a beautiful moment that outwardly demonstrates a person’s inward desire to follow after Jesus. And it is one of the best next steps for a believer who has never been baptized. Our next baptism is happening on October 26. You can sign on the churchcenter app or at the link below.
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.
