Let the peoples praise You, O God; Let all the peoples praise You.

Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy!

Psalm 67:3-4a

PCM Spring Board Meeting

It was an encouraging and productive time as the PCM Board of Directors met in Brighton, MI, for our annual spring meeting. We thank God for these servants who give of their time and efforts on behalf of the work in Poland.

Macclenny

The First Christian Church in Macclenny, Florida, is one of our newest supporting churches. Doug Allen and the Macclenny congregation have become a “Living Link” with the church in Wyszkow. We are thankful for this new partnership and look forward to serving together.

Ukrainian Children’s Camp

A big THANK YOU to all who have sent funds to sponsor a Ukrainian child. Our goal is to raise $14,000 to cover the cost of 80 campers and to pay for the 2 buses that will bring them from Ukraine. To date we’ve received $7,189.12 — over halfway there!

A donation of $125 will cover the camp costs for one child.

Your donation could make an eternal difference in the life of a child!

BUILDING PROJECTS FUND

We are excited to report that we are 1/3 of our way toward meeting our 2018 goal of $175,000!

Currently, there are 9 building/renovation projects underway.
