It’s the Family Vacation
of a Lifetime! Bring your entire family to Babylon, where Daniel had courage in captivity. You’ll travel back into Bible times—without setting foot outside our community. Each day, your family members can become part of history as they see, hear, touch, and even taste what it was like to live in Babylon! You’ll explore the Marketplace shops, visit Daniel, take part in games, dance to lively Bible songs, and sample tasty tidbits as you discover more about Daniel’s adventures in Babylon. These experiences make God’s Word come alive with new meaning for all who participate!

BLESSING
DINNER
To our beloved church family,
We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the outpouring of love, support, prayers – and food! – from all of
you during our time of intense grief over the passing of Greg’s mom Janet. Although our hearts are heavy
in spite of our assurance that she is at home with God, the comfort and friendship you’ve shown our family
has been profound in its impact on our healing process. Please know how much every card, text, email,
Facebook post, hug, and bite of food has meant to us throughout this time of sadness. As the JoYFul
Ensemble sang so beautifully yesterday, you’ve filled our cup until it overflowed!
With sincerest thanks and heartfelt wishes for blessings upon you,
Jerry, Greg, Bonnie, Cameron, Katie, and Scott Martin

Note from Outreach Committee

A “Note” from the KHCC Music Department
My Country, ‘Tis of Thee This patriotic hymn was written by Samuel Francis Smith, a native Bostonian, born on October 21, 1808.
After attending Boston Latin School, he enrolled in Harvard, then attended Andover Seminary. While
there, Samuel became fascinated by the work of Adoniram Judson, America’s first missionary, and he
developed a lifelong passion for world evangelism.
It was also during Samuel’s first year at Andover that hymn publisher Lowell Mason sought his help.
Mason had a stack of German songs and materials needing translation. Learning that Samuel was
proficient in German, he recruited the young student to translate them.
On a cold February afternoon, about a half hour before sunset, Samuel sat in his sparsely furnished room,
pouring over the materials. He was struck by the words of “Gott segne Sachsenland” (God Bless our Saxon
Land”) set to the tune we know as “America” (used in Great Britain for “God Save the Queen”).
“I instantly felt the impulse to write a patriotic hymn of my own adapted to this tune,” Samuel later said.
“Picking up a scrap of paper which lay near me, I wrote at once, probably within half an hour, the hymn,
‘America’ as it is now known.”
A friend, William Jenks, took a copy to the pastor of Boston’s Park Street Congregational Church. There
“America” was first sung by the Juvenile Choir at a Sunday School Rally, on July 4, 1831.
In the years that followed, Samuel Francis Smith grew into a powerful Baptist preacher, pastor, college
professor, hymnist, linguist, writer and missionary advocate. He traveled the world in support of evangel-
ism, and he rejoiced when his son became a missionary to Rangoon. Samuel lived to a ripe old age and
remained active till the end. He died suddenly in his late eighties at the Boston train station in route to a
preaching appointment.
But he has always been most revered for the patriotic hymn he wrote as a twenty three year old student.
Personal note from Louise Chamberlain:
The choir is going to sing this as the anthem on Memorial Day Sunday, May 29th. Our own Craig Pratt
arranged this version the choir is going to sing. ENJOY!!!
To our blood drive supporters:
Thank you for a great turnout on Mothers’ Day! Our church gave 19 units to add to the 4 units that were donated at the
blood center following our February 26th
drive. That’s a wonderful gift in honor of mothers everywhere!
Our next drive is on September 9th
, so please mark your cal-endars and help us meet our goal of 25.
Thanks and God bless! -- Bonnie
