Youth group is packing boxes for Operation Christmas Child again this year. Last year our 30 boxes filled with the love and hope of Jesus united with children living in poverty in southeast Asia and Mexico. Will you help us collect hygiene items and gifts for our boxes? Join us here! All God's children say THANK YOU! 
P.S. Our PBC online shop is open. The shop is your source for PBC t-shirts, hoodies, and several pieces of new gear, including masks. Order here now. Shop closes 11/19.

• Our Nursery and Kids Life Group leaders are excited to share Jesus with all the children! 
• If you'd like to attend in person but remain in your car, we have a live broadcast of the service on 90.7 FM. Park on the south side the building for best reception.
