Dear PCF family and friends, Bonni and I are back at it. I am sorry we had to call off worship this past Sunday but trust me there was no way either one of us could have answered the Bell Sunday morning but I am happy to say we are certainly looking forward to this coming Sunday! The choir will be rehearsing tonight at 6:30 and we are getting ready for another Sunday of Joy, Worship, and Learning with all of you.
Get Ready! Get you calendars out and mark the date. Our first family dinner of 2023 will be on February 19th at 5:00pm at the church. We are having a catered fried chicken dinner from DK’s and we want to see you and your family there! We will once again be taking reservations so we know how much food to order. Nelleke will be taking the reservations at the services and we will be accepting them up until February 12th! This is a great gathering to get to know your spiritual family better. Just good food and good fellowship.
Please sign up for the blog if you haven’t already done so. As you found out last Sunday, this is the way all changes and happenings at the church are announced to the congregation. Illness, prayers, weather issues for Sunday services, everything that you need to know will be sent out on the blog. It’s easy to get added, just send your request including your name and email address to brett@bammarketingagency.com and he will get you added.
I want to remind people that we have several new people showing up for our services so make sure you keep an eye out for them so you can give your PCF love and welcome to Gabe Szmarek, Connor Bradley and Alexa Stephenson, Kurt and Carolyn Kruckeberg. We are glad you are joining our Joyful, Loving family!
