Knit is happening again! We have had the chance to sit down with Jen Jarvis, the event organiser and chat about what Knit is and why she set this up:
What is Knit?
Knit is an event I set up late last year where keen and newby knitters get together and basically knit! Its a great evening where we all chill out and knit (or sew, crochet, whatever you want really!). Just a nice way of hanging out with women of different ages and walks of life.
How did the concept come about?

Around 350 women gathered at the Clarendon Centre a few weeks ago for the CCK Women’s day. It was fantastic morning which saw women of all ages coming together, expectant to meet with God and ready to learn from and encourage one another.
The lovely Katie Virgo was our host for the day and she gave a brief welcome before Jules Burt and the band kick-started the day with a time of worship. It was an amazing time spent in God’s presence, with several women coming to the front to share words of scripture.

During this academic year CCK will be holding four training evenings that are exclusive to members of the church. These evenings provide unique opportunities to explore theology, learn how to move in the Holy Spirit and gain pastoral skills. The evenings will be a mixture of teaching, practical work and group discussion.
Each evening will have three training strands. They will each run as a series over the four evenings. The choices are:
Lifestyle Theology
This looks at how God’s word instructs us in the practicalities of life. This strand covers areas such as debt, relationships and employment.
Pastoral Skills
In these sessions you will learn and discuss around such vital pastoral topics as Listening, Acceptance, Honesty and Boundaries.

Phatfish are appearing at their only Sussex gig on November 19th in Hastings as part of their 'Light Tour'. The tour, which is raising money for the charity 'HOPEHIV', has already enjoyed packed venues across the south of England as well as in Wrexham and Worcester. Nathan Fellingham says: "This has been one of the most successful tours we've ever put on in over 15 years of performing. Having the mix of songs from Lou's latest solo release 'Step Into The Light' and also Phatfish's latest and greatest, overarching 2 decades, has all sat together very well, with the broad audience enjoying it all. The added dimension of focussing on the charity is also a real privilege. We've seen around £3,000 raised so far and have written a song specifically to highlight the work that they do."

I'm sure you'll all aware we're motoring towards the Who is Jesus? series which starts this Sunday at CCK. In conjunction with the series we've launched a website to find out what people in our city think is the answer to that question: Who is Jesus?
We're keen to get as many people onto the website as we can and give them the opportunity to voice their opinion, but to make this happen we need you! So we’re asking you to help us out by donating your Facebook status and Twitter tweets to CCK for one day between now and Sunday. We want as many people as possible to post something to direct people to the website, a few suggestions are listed below:

Stephanie-Elise Melrose reviews the recently concluded Newday 2010 youth conference.
On 11th August, 73 CCK youth plus numerous leaders and servers, gathered at the Norfolk Showground for Newday 2010. Whilst not exactly the sunny spot we encountered last year, this year’s conference more than made up for the weather in terms of amazing encounters with God and the challenge of living out the love of Jesus.

At CCK we want to gather men to a sense of mission and purpose. We want to build a church where men have their identity truly rooted in Christ and their focus on something eternal.
What we need at CCK and what the church around the world needs is Godly men, not just for the sake of the men themselves but for all. For men to become who they are intended to be by God will have enormous ramifications for the church and for our city.

Lena Newman reviews The Women's Day event conducted on the 13th of Feb..
It was absolutely amazing and so encouraging to see so many women gathered in one place last Saturday, united despite clear differences in age, race, culture and background - but all desiring to meet with God, engage with the word and expectant to hear His voice.
The sense of momentum and genuine excitement built as four hundred women realised that being sold out for Jesus in this city could change it's face forever.
Admittedly I felt for the handful of males in the room, (who were outnumbered by a hundred to one!) and I was very grateful for their willingness to serve us.
After a brief intro by our lovely host Kate Virgo, we kick-started the day with amazing worship and met with the Spirit in a powerful way.
