Cedar Park church is connected to the Assemblies of God, and the Assemblies of God is the largest Protestant movement in Washington State. Collectively we have over 65,000 people in our churches on Sundays with adherents of over 250,000. There’s a great responsibility that comes with being given the widest Christian breadth of impact in a region.

How we become the people of God at Cedar Park will take place largely through how we grow spiritually and that is an outcome of engaging in worship and ministry in our faith community. That is why we have arranged ministry as we have and how we have presented it in this ministry catalog. There is ample opportunity to experience spiritual growth by attending worship services, finding a place in our classes and small groups, and by engaging in Christian service.

Communion is usually served at the altars. As you make your way to the front, use it as a time for examination and confession. It is not required that you be a member of Cedar Park to participate in communion; you need only to belong to the Lord. Parents should determine when their children are ready to participate in communion service. The second Sunday of the month, we hear reports from those in the field whom we currently support. Cedar Park Church contributes to the monthly support of full time, career missionaries. We ask that you prayerfully participate in world missions giving by making an offering above your regular tithe. The third Sunday of the month, we dedicate infants and children. We follow the practice of presenting our children to the Lord, just as Jesus was presented by Mary and Joseph. They are presented to the Lord by their parents in front of the congregation. We do not baptize infants or small children. Family members are welcome to stand with the parents as their children are dedicated. For registration please call the church offices at 425-488-3600. 4TH SUNDAY MEMBERSHIP The fourth Sunday of the month is dedicated to receiving new members into our fellowship. Membership is strongly encouraged but not required to attend Cedar Park. Membership classes are held throughout the year.

Everything about the Chapel is meant to inspire the living with the hope of the Resurrection and the glory of our Christ. The Chapel of the Resurrection reminds the living of our faith, the priorities of our living, and the eternal rewards beyond our death. It reclaims the hope that has motivated every generation of Christians since the beginning of the Church. The Chapel fills a need for Christians who want to express their faith in a distinctively Christian manner by caring for the remains of their loved ones and placing them where families will find comfort and assurance in our certainty of heaven. Sundays at 9am in the Chapel A mix of hymns and sacred choruses you’re sure to recognize and cherish. Sacred Space Enjoy the beauty and serenity of the lovely artwork depicting noted biblical events, inspiring you for a wonderful, spirit-filled touch from the Lord. We encourage you to come if you have any needs for healing prayer, along with any other prayer requests. We love to pray with you and for you. We look forward to seeing you in Softer Sunday. Real Community Funeral Home Mausoleum We provide many services from which you can choose. Our licensed funeral directors will walk you through the entire process and help you make the choices that are comfortable for you and your family. Lining the back exterior of the Chapel are hundreds of crypts for casket burial, niches for cremated remains and memorial cenotaphs. Those coming to remember loved ones are inspired by the beautiful surroundings. Our prices are typically 25%– 50% less expensive than comparable funeral homes. In every funeral arrangement, you need a funeral provider and place for burial. We can provide both for you, either together or independently. 16 Planning Ahead Guaranteed Often, because of grief, families Prices do not make the wisest financial decisions. Excessive spending is common when people wait until the time of need to make important decisions about funeral and burial arrangements. Making decisions now, in a more relaxed atmosphere, will greatly ease the burden later. Paying today means your loved ones will not have to pay any additional expenses when the time of need occurs. Once you have purchased a funeral plan at today’s prices, the major part of the expenses (including the services, casket or urn) are not only paid for, but guaranteed. We have coffee and pastries available before and after service while you fellowship with your friends and guests. Relationships and intimacy with the Lord are the keynote points of a service such as this. Deeper Relationships Experience everything you have been looking for in a softer, spiritually uplifting, and touching worship style. We offer a combination of favorite hymns and choruses, which you are sure to recognize and cherish. Pastor Sue Timpe leads the morning with worship, followed by Pastor Joe’s message. The service is then concluded with an opportunity for personal prayer with our Pastors. Our goal is to help you build a deeper relationship with the Lord and with fellow worshippers. Enjoy fellowship, worship, teaching, prayer, and refreshments.

BOYS / 9-12th grade GIRLS / 6-8th grade GIRLS / 9-12th grade Reaching Out Cedar Park Church reaches out to the community by providing a five-day overnight summer camp for children who have experienced abuse and neglect and are or were in the foster care system. Many of these children have severe emotional, social, and behavioral issues. The goal of this camp is to introduce these hurting children to God’s love and provide a week of positive memories in the midst of difficult lives. Many fun activities take place including a tea party for the girls and laser tag for the boys, a big birthday party, crafts, woodworking, a campfire, a talent show, a car and motorcycle show, inflatables, and daily chapels. Campers go home with many fun memories, a Bible, a music CD, and a photo album full of pictures to help them remember the week. VOLUNTEER NEEDS: There are many different roles to fill at camp including counselors (age 18 and older), photographers, nurses, behind the scenes help, tea party and birthday party volunteers, woodworking and craft-area vounteers, and technical support. We will be accepting applications for next year’s camp in February. Training is provided for all volunteers. Please consider joining us next July! You will never be the same! Fund Raising Foster families do not pay for camp so all funds come solely from donations. It costs over $700 per camper for a week of camp. We are a nonprofit organization and all donations go directly to the camp. Checks can be made out to Cedar Park Church or Royal Family Kids’ Camp (RFKC). We greatly appreciate all matching funds from corporations. We are looking for people interested in being on our fundraising committee. Donations Needed Please consider giving a financial gift to help send a foster child to camp and make a difference in a hurting child’s life. We also appreciate gift cards, such as, Target, Fred Meyer, Costco, Michaels, and Home Depot. THANK YOUS “Thank you for providing help to send K. to camp this year. RFKC is a magical place for her.

Thank you so much for everything you have done to create an atmosphere where kids can laugh, cry, and experience the special magic of camp. A special thanks to all who have contributed to RFKC.” “I wanted to write you and tell you and the staff at camp thank you very much. My son R. was the happiest I have seen him in a long time after camp. Please let everyone know that all the love and support given to these children shows and they will forever hold these memories close to their hearts.” “God bless you and your entire organization!

For more information and/or registration contact us via email. Based on the book, The Bait of Satan, this series exposes one of the most deceptive snares Satan uses to get believers out of the will of God. Offense! Most people who are ensnared by the bait of Satan don’t even realize it. Don’t be fooled! After an offense many of us become inward and guarded, unconditional love becomes impossible because we will not risk being hurt. Our love grows cold. The walls we erect for our protection from further hurt become our prison instead. Doubts about God’s goodness arise as we filter everything through hurts of the past and experiences of rejection. Believing God becomes harder and harder. We become unable to function in our calling, incapable of reaching our full potential because of wounds and offenses.
