God's Special Friends

Serving special needs residents in our community and beyond

God’s Special Friends is an outreach that has been part of Christ the King Vineyard Church for over 30 years.  It is a ministry to the special needs residents in our community and beyond.  Ages vary from teens to senior citizens, with a wide range in ability levels.  

Our purpose is to make Christ’s love and salvation real to each person- God’s Special Friends as well as the staff.  We want them to recognize and feel His presence in everyday life, to see the beauty of His creation all around them, and to show His love to others.

We do this through:

  • Providing Christian Fellowship. We come together to worship, talk, share in activities, crafts, a Pot Blessing dinner once a month and a snack and beverage each week.
  • Prayer. We begin and end each meeting with prayer.  All of our God’s Special Friends are so faithful in praying for each other. 
  • Bible Teaching and Crafts.  We illustrate God’s Word in many ways through stories, Christian movies, music, crafts, games and puppetry.  We invite special guests from different walks of life.

When and Where We Meet:

2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th Wednesdays of the Month

September – May in Luther Hall 

7:00 – 8:30 pm

Starting July 15, CTK Vineyard will receive 80 Senior Food Boxes each month for distribution on the third Wednesday of the month from 4:30–6:30 PM.

The Senior Food Box Program provides eligible seniors with a 35-pound box of nutritious food, including fresh produce and shelf-stable items such as milk, juice, canned meat, pasta, rice, peanut butter, canned vegetables, and a 2-pound block of cheese.

Eligibility Requirements:

  • Must be a Cuyahoga County resident
  • Must be age 60 or older
  • Must have a household income at or below 150% of the federal poverty level (adjusted for household size)

This ministry fills an important need in our community, as there is currently only one Senior Food Box distribution site between the Lorain County line and Old Brooklyn.

Volunteers are needed to set up, distribute and clean up on July 15. Two shifts are available: 3:30-5:30pm or 5:00-7:00pm. Can you help? Use the communication card or email Pastor Rebekah at rebekah@ctkchurch.org.
