Stewardship Commitment Sunday 

8:15 in the Chapel 
9:30 and 11 a.m. services in the Sanctuary 
 

     

Sermon: "Of Great Value"

Jesus' two little parables in Matthew 13 are deceptive. The Kingdom of God is likened to a valuable treasure and a pearl merchant in search of a pearl of great value. However, there is more here than meets the eye -- the secret of what is truly valuable in life.

 

Preaching: Dr. Blair Monie 

 

Music: At the 9:30 and 11 a.m. services, the Sanctuary Choir will sing "We Praise Thee, We Bless Thee" by James Mulholland.  

 

 Sunday's Bulletin l This Sunday's Christian Education 

This Sunday is Stewardship Commitment Sunday

 

This Sunday is Commitment Sunday, a day to celebrate God's faithfulness to each of us in this church as we have rededicated ourselves to being givers of our time, talent, and treasure. Over the past weeks of this Stewardship season, we have had the opportunity to think about the things "of great value" we enjoy and share at PHPC. Join us this Sunday as we celebrate Commitment Sunday! If you've already made your pledge for the coming year, thank you! If you have not, pledge cards will be available on Sunday. You can even pledge online at www.phpc.org/stewardship.  

 

Also This Sunday: 

 

Care for the Family Caregiver

This month's Coffee and Conversation class will meet this Sunday at 9:30 a.m. in the Parlor. This class, "Care for the Caregiver: Dealing with Stress and Demands" benefits those who provide care for others or self care for chronic conditions. Church Gerontologist, Dee Wadsworth, will lead this class. Invite a friend and join us!
