Eric Rinkel and his dog Annie at the Rinkel Farm from a year ago

Good morning PCF family, I am looking forward to this Sunday. 

Worship at 10:30am, BBQ dinner at 5:00pm! We are collecting outdoor games for Beverly Farm for our mission at this dinner. You can bring them Sunday morning or bring them to the BBQ, thank you! These games and donations will be going to our very own Krista Kell’s department at Beverly Farm. Krista is the director of all the resident activities! Thank you Krista for you many years of dedication to that wonderful ministry.

We Need Rain!!!  Special Prayer Request. Ken and Diane Rinkel who operate the Rinkel Pumpkin Farm along with their son Eric, located at 2760 Old Troy Road, really really need rain! Like most farmers in the area! Diane told me last week that the lack of rain this spring has reached a very critical point where crops may not make it if rain doesn’t come very soon. This morning Diane was taking a “prayer walk” and she said the cracks in the dirt are getting very big from the drought. Let’s lift this request to the Lord who hears, Lord please bless our farmers with your life giving rain. Forgive us of our sins, hear our prayers and all the glory be yours! Amen.

Congratulations to Anna Schuetzenhofer and Carson Baugher who I will have the honor of performing their wedding ceremony this Saturday. The next time we see Anna at church she will be Mrs. Anna Baugher! Please lift this young couple to our Lord asking for a blessing of their lives together and that their future will be filled with the knowledge and wisdom of God all the days of their life and that they will live each day glorifying the Lord.

Where is God on your priority list today? At the top? In the middle? Or lower?  The higher you move Him up on your priority list the more peace, love and joy you are going to experience.

Proverbs 19:21 “You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail.”  AMEN That is why we should always seek the Lords guidance first in all decisions.
