For Women Only! Saturday, November 18th


Introducing..."Bellas, Books, & Brunch"

Our wonderful pastora, Merridth Cho, is hosting a new book club at her home in North Raleigh. It is a great way to get outside of your shell, discuss the issues, and meet new bellas (sorry fellas, this is a "bellas only" event).

This month's meeting will be Saturday, Nov 18th from 10:00am to Noon. Bring a dish to share and feel free to invite any other fabulous women to join us.


We will be discussing the book with all the buzz, Climbing the Ladder in Stilettos by Lynette Lewis. Lynette is a gifted speaker and an annointed woman in business and in ministry. If you haven't experienced her yet this would be a great time to start!www.lynettelewis.com

Email merr_cho@yahoo.com if you plan to attend and need directions!

See you there!

X-Service! Life Center Fundraiser Nov. 28-30th

Calling all Servants…

Many of you have been looking for a way to share your time, talents, and creativity to serve. Come out and join X-Service in our Family Photography Session. We will be taking pictures of families at KPIC in front of our beautiful Christmas tree to raise money for the Youth Life Center. We need people who have a knack for photography and access to a digital camera. We need all you tech-folks to help us out with transferring the digital images onto computers and saving them on cds for each family.

Do your talents lie in administration? We have a job for you too; we will need people to be available to direct families to their photographer, collect money, and give families information regarding their cd. Still want to serve but unsure of your abilities in these areas? That’s okay you can smile and smiles are contagious! Each photographer will need an assistant to help keep those smiles going especially with the younger children so they can concentrate on taking the pictures.

Email our service coordinator, Jaimie, with your time availability and area of interest. jnmewborn@yahoo.com

Family Dinner: Friday, November 24th 6:00pm


"I can't cook a Thanksgiving dinner. All I can make is cold cereal and maybe toast." Charlie Brown

If you can relate and cooking for yourself seems a little overwhelming, come and give thanks with your King's Park aXcess Family. We'll be gathering together in Morrisville at Indigo Clubhouse. We are doing this potluck style and feel free to invite your friends.


RSVP to Kim kimikai14@gmail.com how many people you invite and the food you plan to bring. We'd also be excited to hear about any special holiday traditions, favorite games, or holdiay movies (Indigo has a big screen TV) you'd like to share with the group.

Scott Cox will be unlocking the secrets to the four steps of money prioritization at the Ticon Clubhouse in Durham, NC.

A certified mortgage planner, Scott has a commitment to really understanding money, financial implications, taxes and all aspects of someone’s financial life. He will present strategies not commonly taught to help you reach your short and long-term financial goals.


We realize that more than a few of you may be re-evaluating your wallets if Scott does his job but we can't just let you go home at 8:30pm with visions of new budgets and ramen noodles dancing in your heads...

Rich & Merridith, our favorite young adults' pastors, are bringing their movie projector, big screen, and buttery popcorn so stick around and enjoy a free, fun-filled evening out.

In case you didn't already know, this is a GREAT opportunity to invite your friends and co-workers!

IF YOU LIVE IN DURHAM: Meet us at 8am to start your morning off right at Victoria's Sweets Bakery & Cafe in Durham. They are located in Sutton Station at 5826 Fayetteville Rd, Durham, NC, 27713. We decided to find somewhere more fun to wait for the inevitable late-comers than the church parking lot!

You'll have a panoramic view of the intercoastal waterway while meeting new friends and catching up with the old over lunch at at Bluewater Grill. Check out their menu.


Bring your beach chairs, towels, Frisbee, surfboard, magazines, and anything else you may need to enjoy a day by the sea. We'll provide the coolers and the ice, you bring the drinks!

Our graphic designers, Ben & Eddie, are heading up our giant sandcastle building competition so even your son's sand toys are welcome.

Needing a little more action than building sandcastles?

Nelvin, the British Virgin Islands native, competed at the collegiate level in beach volleyball but he is taking on all levels of playing experience to make up his teams. Send him an email if you are interested. tho_nel@hotmail.com

If you'd prefer spectator status, look for former NCCU cheerleader, Kim, on the sidelines to cheer your favorite players on to victory.





Jamie & Kristin are leading an hour long kayak tour of the marshes and Intercoastal Waterway in Wrightsville Beach.

$18 to rent a single kayak and $28 if you want to double with a friend. Contact Kristin: kristinmichelle2@gmail.com to get your boat.

The beach party shuts down by five o'clock & we'll return to Durham by 7:30pm.

However, always the adventurers, Jonathan and Lydia Ruth are campaigning to check out the nightlife. Jump in their cars if you are looking for a few more hours of fun.
