PRBC Summer Memories...

Backyard Meet and Greet - Join Us on August 24th

We have come to love our backyard as an oasis of sorts, and we love nothing more than sharing it with all of you. It’s always a different group of people. Long time members and new folks alike attend. Everyone who comes always gets to meet someone new while reconnecting with old friends. So be sure and mark your calendar and join us for our last summer backyard meet and greet on August 24.

No Newsletter Next Week

Next week, August 15, 2023 we have a little Newsletter Vacation. Be on the look for our next Newsletter on August 23, 2023 with important details about our upcoming Kick-Off Sunday on Sunday, August 27th!

Families and Children Lake Day

Thanks to Beth and Mark Mintich for the use of their house and pontoon. We had a nice, quick outing on Lake Wylie. Milli and Yeison Perez got to have their first inner tube ride - ever - and then a huge rainstorm ended our outing! But we got back to the house and had ice cream. What could be better!? - Russ

Fun Food Friday - August 24th

For our next Fun Food Friday outing we’re going to Papa Doc's Shore Club in Lake Wylie, SC on August 25. Papa Doc's is a self described Rustic American seafood restaurant.


Please signup in Helt Hall or by emailing [email protected]. For those who would like to carpool, we will meet in the church parking lot at 11a and ride the bus, or you can meet at us at the restaurant, 3990 Charlotte Hwy, Lake Wylie, SC 29710, at 11:30a.

"Men's Work" - Pickelball

We had a great time of Pickleball for Men's Work. Matt Kinney, our organizer, was quoted as saying things like, "That serve was a real dill-light!" and encouraging other players with "Pickleball can get ‘rally’ tedious sometimes." 

 

Check out our champions at pickleball and our champions at life who were not champions at pickleball.

August Mission Offering - East Lake Initiative

The August monthly mission offering will go to ELI (East Lake Initiative). Founded as a community development organization in 2010, ELI began as an outreach into the East Lake neighborhood in Birmingham, AL, to offer connection, safety, and resources. The members of the organization have since expanded their reach to the greater Birmingham community to offer wraparound services to families in the areas of housing, economic development, health and nutrition, and education.


The participants in the Youth Mission Trip 2023 spent one day working with ELI in their community garden and their food pantry.

Friends at Home

Please check in on each other via phone,

email, text, Zoom, or letters.

Thank you.

We list an individual each week that we call our “Friends at Home” with their contact information.


Drop a card or give a call to check-in. Even if you do not know someone personally, a contact from someone from their church is always an encouragement.
