Do you want to serve Communion by distributing the elements during regular Communion on the first Sunday of each month? By the session’s approval, you don’t have to be an ordained elder to serve Communion. November and December still need volunteers, please sign up on the bulletin board outside the church office or let Pastor Je know.

Amy Morrison, Don Sanders, Barbara Belt, Kendra Whipkey

We need two more servers.

Prayer Request?

Got News?

Do you have something you wish to share with the church family? Sharing good news will double it. Sharing sad news will halve it. Is your child or grandchild excellent? You can boast about them. Contact the church office if you want your story in the weekly Midweek or monthly Newsletter.

PPM Is Back on Session

PPM is back from fall break and busy with excitement for Halloween! This is such a fun time for the kids, and the teachers are just glad it falls on a Friday this year. I would like to thank our PPM board members. Their commitment to helping PPM staff, children and families is truly appreciated. They are always ready and willing to help however needed. Our 2025-26 board members are: Teresa Brannon, Leanne Piper, Michael Bihl, Matt Carroll, Sara George, Andrew Gunter, Caroline Clouser, Kristen Catron, Brittany Williams, Jason Smith and Erik Buland. What an incredible group of individuals. Thank you for everything you do.

    Christ Is Risen Indeed! On Easter Sunday, April 20 th , we joyfully concluded our long Lenten journey that began on Ash Wednesday. The final stretch of that journey was marked by Palm Sunday, April 13 th , ushering us into Holy Week—a week-long culmination of reflection, devotion, and remembrance of Christ’s Passion. Our Easter morning worship was filled with beauty and praise! The sanctuary resounded with lovely singing voices, a wonderful Bell Choir, and the inspiring sounds of Lisa ’s piano and Bud ’s organ. It was a glorious celebration of the Resurrection, reminding us once again that Christ is risen indeed! Audio Devotional During Lent, Pastor Je recorded daily devotionals from the PCUSA resource These Days.
