BUILDING PLEDGE UPDATE

Are you up-to-date in your building pledges? We began the Generations fundraising effort in February 2023, asking for three-year pledges due February 2026. We are at the point at which we need an influx of cash to build the new kitchen and new restrooms at Point Pleasant. Do your utmost to get your pledge up-to-date.

BIBLE READING PLAN FOR 2025

For 2025, we will offer the Navigator's Book-at-a-Time Bible reading plan. Hard copies will be available on Sundays and in the church office; you can use the provided pdf as well. In the year ahead, ask God each day to speak directly to you from the Scripture portions you read. Be expectant, and let your continual exposure to God’s Word reshape your attitudes and behavior as you gain a better understanding of every part of His written testimony to us.
