      PCM Board of Directors meet in Brighton, MI

It’s always a special time when the PCM Board meets together. Seven of the nine directors traveled to Brighton, MI, this week for our spring meeting. Besides financial reviews, strategic planning, and personnel evaluations, it was also a time for prayer and the deepening of relationships. We thank God for the PCM directors and their faithful commitment to see God’s work go forward in Poland.
These eight team members from the Savannah, GA, area are bound for Poland. The Compassion Christian Church has commissioned them to serve Holocaust survivors from Israel in Ostroda, Poland, from May 28-June 9, 2016.
Kazik Barczuk, Send Me Ministry,
has organized and led this outreach
to Holocaust survivors since 2012.
 
Meet Tori Zilch — one of PCM’s summer interns. Tori grew up attending Brighton Christian Church (Brighton, MI) and currently serves in children’s ministry at the 2/42 Community Church. Her heart has always been for missions and she is eager to spend her summer serving the people of Poland (May 19 – Aug. 16). She will assist the staff at Ostróda Camp in hosting camps for children and adults; will participate in a new church outreach in Wilanów (Warsaw); and will help lead a VBS with the church in Bielsk Podlaski. We are excited to welcome Tori to Poland. Her passion for God and love for people will surely be a blessing to many.
