Dear PHILIDELPHIA,
Maddi Spacht, HS Youth Pastor
In a world that feels overwhelming and compromised, Jesus’ letter to the church in Philadelphia reminds us that faithfulness is possible—not because of our own strength, but because Jesus Himself opens doors that no one can shut. The faithful are called to hold on, walk through the doors He opens, and trust that He will make a way for His church to endure and shine. Even in a weary culture, there is real hope because King Jesus is still building His Church.

Step 2: FIND FREEDOM
ROOM 109 | LUNCH & CHILDCARE PROVIDED
No matter where you are at on your journey, Lifetrack is the FIRST step that we encourage you to participate in here at Kankakee First Church. This is where you will learn about WHO we are as a church, WHAT we believe, and HOW we are structured to help you along your spiritual journey. Lifetrack is a four-step process that helps you discover your redemptive purpose and live the life God created for you. You will learn more about who we are as a church and who God has created you to be.
Lifetrack is also our onboarding for our DreamTeam.

At K1, we are committed to sharing the good news of Jesus with a world who does yet know him. We believe that the most effective way to do that is through "relational evangelism" - building relationships with lost people in our lives by Beginning with Prayer (Praying for them), Listening (Really listening), Eating (Sharing meals with them), Serving (showing up in meaningful ways, without limits), and Sharing our Story (The ways that God has shown up in our lives).
As we live this out, we want to hear stories of how this B.L.E.S.S. way of living is happening in your life!
