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.”

Thank you to everyone who helped with the Tea Party! We are grateful for the venue, food, tea sets, tableware, decor, drinks, crafts, and all the help! Thank you for giving your time, talents, and resources to make this a memorable afternoon for the girls. We couldn’t have done it without you! 

The October Daily Bible Reading Guide & Prayer Calendar is now available in the literature rack. You may also access it @ pvmcok.org under the resources tab or within the app.

Communion All are invited to the Lord’s table who have been baptized into a community of faith, are living at peace with God and with their brothers and  sisters in the faith, and are willing to be accountable in their congregation. Celebrating the Lord’s Supper in this manner, the church looks forward in joy and hope to the feast of the redeemed with Christ in the age to come.

Elder Nominations Are Due Today The three-year elder terms for Stenson Miller and Kent Switzer are coming to an end. Stenson is not eligible to serve another term since he has already served two consecutive terms. Having only served one term, Kent is eligible to serve another term. Prayerfully review the qualifications of an elder or overseer as laid out by Paul in his letter to Titus (1:5-9) and Timothy (1 Tim. 3:1-13) before nominating a member of the congregation. The orange nomination ballots are due today and can be placed in the ballot box next to the credenza in the foyer. Pastor Jeff will contact individuals who receive two or more nominations. A brief meeting will be held on Wednesday night at 7:30 PM in the sanctuary for the elder nominees.

Potluck Next Sunday, October 11th, we will gather in the Fellowship Hall for a potluck lunch. Each household is asked to bring 2 dishes. The New Vision Sunday School class is in charge.

Prayer Opportunity Global Disciples is hosting a prayer meeting via zoom for ministries they are involved with that cannot be reported on publicly because of security reasons on the third Friday of each month from 8 to 9 AM through December. This is an opportunity to be involved in God’s work among the unreached without having to leave your home! The next meeting is planned for October 16th. Contact Daryl Mast for the link to that meeting.

Membership The elders want to inform the congregation Ryan Minden has  started the new member process. Please pray for him as he pursues membership at PVMC. If you have questions, please contact Pastor Jeff or one of the elders.

Save the Date Family Camp is coming November 14th & 15th.  Family Camp is a way to connect with and build relationships within our church family.  It is going to be held at Canyon Camp near Hinton starting Saturday noon through Sunday noon. Family camp will include intergenerational games, activities and worship. Overnight lodging will be available in the Canyon Camp lodge. Look for more details as the date approaches.
