The Christ the King Foundation has been blessed with many monetary gifts over the 30+ years and as a result the trustees are able to fund grants two times a year with April 1 and October 1 application deadlines.  Grants are then awarded June 1 and December 1.  Typical grant awards are in the $5,000 range.  

There are three categories for consideration – Congregational Needs, Community Needs and Global Missions.  Some recent examples have been:  CtK Covid Relief Match, Community Support Center, Black Men Teach, CPY, Ralph Reeder Food Shelf, and Arusha, Tanzania Nursing School Program.

The Foundation’s Board of Trustees encourage you to be creative and think outside of the box while submitting your grant application by April 1!

Application can be found at https://www.lifeatctk.org/foundation.html

Community Partners with Youth (CPY) invites you to join us on April 6, 2021 for our Virtual Spring Event. Come and learn about how CPY has engaged youth through the pandemic and continues to help them succeed in school. We are thrilled to have Justice Alan Page as the featured speaker. 

Justice Alan Page has had an illustrious and varied career. He played football for the Minnesota Vikings and in the NFL, and he was inducted in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He earned a B.A from the University of Notre Dame and a J. D. from the U of M Law School. With his late wife, Diane, Justice Page founded the Page Education Foundation. In 1992, he became the first African American on the Minnesota Supreme Court.  

This is a free event; however this is a fundraising event and donations will be accepted. All proceeds will help CPY provide educational opportunities and build social and life skills for youth in our area. This event replaces our annual spring luncheon fundraising event.

Phone Devotions Suspended For Now

During much of the time of separation and confinement during the COVID-19 Pandemic, Christ the King has invited members to call in for a recorded devotional. With recent changes to our office staff configuration, we are suspending these phone devotions for the time being. However, We invite members of the CtK community to make use of the Lenten Devotional, which included daily Bible readings, reflections, and prayers, written by pastors, staff, and lay people at CtK. This resource is available online here, as well as in print version. If you have not yet received a print copy (or would like to have another copy) please call the church office (651-633-4674) to arrange pick-up or delivery.
