Little ones attending Vacation Bible School at St. Mark’s United Methodist Church took KCRM’s G2:10 Challenge in June!

Youth from Kingsland, Texas, serenaded KCRM while volunteering in our kitchen during lunch. Some of the group, a part of Adventures in Missions, helped prepare lunch while others braved intense heat and tall weeds to work on KCRM’s garden.  “They helped us find the cucumbers and watermelon!” Volunteer Coordinator Juliann Hansen enthused.

KCRM's First Friday Works in Progress for June a Great Night for All!

KCRM's first "Works in Progress" First Friday event of this summer was a great success! 238 attended, not counting around 50 volunteers, artists and staff combined. You helped us build TP Tower! 5500 rolls of toilet paper was collected -- more than half our goal! The tower reached almost 20 feet by the end of the evening. Thanks to ALL who pariticipated! Here are some photos of the event!
