KOWLOON
INTERNATIONAL
BAPTIST CHURCH
October 1, 2017
If this is your first time to attend worship at KIBC, we welcome you!
Please find a guest card (in the pew rack in front of you), fill it out
and place it in the offering bag during the service. We thank you for
joining us today!

International Day at KIBC—Sunday, October 8
We will celebrate our international congregation by
wearing our native dress and/or bringing a flag from
our home country; and in morning services, we will recognize the
countries in which we were born. (If you think your country might be
left off the list, please contact Angie: angie@hkkibc.org).
Also, if you’d like to read a scripture verse in your native language,
in one of the worship services, let Angie know!

Adult Christmas Choir
All adults (and youth 16+) are
invited to join the Adult
Christmas Choir beginning on
Sunday, October 8 from
2-4pm. (It doesn’t matter
which Sunday service you
normally attend, because this
choir will sing at our combined
service at A.C. Hall on
Sunday, Dec 17.)
