Answers to Questions Earlier this spring, the elders created an affiliation survey. Part of the survey included a place to ask questions about the Fellowship of Evangelical Churches (FEC) and LMC, a fellowship of Anabaptist Churches. Answers to the questions are available in the literature rack. Look for the yellow paper.
BOYS CLUB is back! The young men of PVMC deserve the best we can offer them for spiritual growth, mentorship and fellowship. So we are bringing back the Boys Club here at PVMC as a fun way to get the boys and men of the congregation together a few times a year to enjoy fellowship and activities, and to foster relationship building and mentorship for the young men here. Our first event will be a fishing trip/cookout on Friday, May 22nd from 5:30-9 PM. There is a sign-up sheet in the foyer. Boys 12 and older can be dropped off and picked up here at PVMC, boys under 12 can attend with their fathers or a guardian. All men are invited! So come join us, and let’s help each other build up our future leaders!
Wedding Shower Please join us in celebrating the upcoming marriage of Erika Stutzman and Ryan Minden as we shower them with gifts and love on Sunday, May 31st. If you would like to help host, please contact Jordan Nel. The couple are registered at Target and Amazon.
New Member Recommendations Larry White and Jacob & Kathryn Steigman have all completed new member classes as outlined in the PVMC constitution. The elders recommend all of them for membership and anticipate bringing Jacob & Kathryn Steigman into the membership on June 14th with Kathryn planning to be rebaptized at Church in the Canyon, June 21st. Larry White is currently in Louisiana with his mother who is battling cancer. Upon his return, we will schedule a date to bring him into the membership.
God’s Love is Extreme! Vacation Bible School is planned for July 13th – 16th. If you would like to volunteer, please contact a member of the VBS Committee: Ally Chupp, Angel Miller or Dana Selzer. We have opportunities for everyone!
Day in the Country In the past this has been a good community and fund raising event. We did not have Day in the Country last year and want to see if there is someone who would like to spearhead a Day in the Country this year. If this is something God is calling you to or if you would like more information about what is involved, please contact the church office.
