Tithes and Offerings can be placed in the offering plates at the back of the sanctuary before Sunday morning worship and anytime in the black box outside of the secretary’s office labeled “Tithes and Offerings and Prayer Cards.”

The September Daily Bible Reading guide & Prayer calendar is available in the literature rack. You may also access it @ pvmcok.org under the resources tab or within our app.

New Treasurer’s Mailbox We are pleased to announce the addition of a Treasurer’s Mailbox for our members’ convenience! Members may use the mailbox to submit: receipts, completed vouchers and other treasurer-related items. The Treasurer’s Mailbox is located at the bottom right of the existing  mailbox cabinet (under the Secretary and Pastor mailboxes). Blank vouchers and cash envelopes have been moved to the drawer directly below the new Treasurer’s Mailbox.

CEC Needs Your Help! As we begin a new term, we are in need of a Sunday School helper for grades 1-2. For Wednesday nights, we are looking for a teacher for the Pre K – Kindergarten class. If you are available, please contact a member of the Christian Education Committee: Cindy Hunt, Martha Miller, Echo Shantz,  Susan Shantz, or Karl Stutzman.

Parents – Mark Your Calendars!  IMPRINT: Parenting in Every Season featuring workshop speaker, Gay B. Brown, is an event for everyone in any season of parenting being hosted here @ PVMC. IMPRINT starts Friday at 6 PM with a meal and ends around 8:30 PM. We meet again Saturday morning starting at 9 AM and conclude with lunch around 12:45 PM. Childcare is available. Invite your friends. Sign up through the link located within our church app or on our church website. Registration closes Wednesday, September 9th at midnight!

Singing Evening is next Sunday, September 13th. Delvin & Anita Mast, Karl & Brenda Stutzman, Ben & Tasha Warner, Nelson & Glenda Miller are responsible for specials. If you prefer not to organize a special for the month, or have a conflict, please contact Freeman Schrock.

Members Meeting Next Sunday The agenda for our quarterly members meeting is: 1) Review and approve previous meeting minutes. 2) Letter from LMC. 3) Update on our 501c3 application. 4) Review the Elder Selection Process. 5) How do we decide when a particular ministry is over? 6) Any time-sensitive items not already on the agenda.  Non-members are welcome to attend.

Tea Time! Some of the ladies of our church would love to host a tea party for the girls of the church! Beth has graciously offered her barn and her tea party expertise, but we need volunteers to help host, provide refreshments, and make the event special. If you’d like to help, please contact Jessica Kimble for more information!

God is great and God is good! Thank you for your prayers and concerns on my recent heart procedure. The procedure went well and the doctors were pleased. The recovery should be minimal.
