Church Picnic



Mark your calendars. June 5th both Praise Community Fellowship and Immanuel Methodist will meet at Glik Park for a 10:00am service with a picnic lunch following. Kent will be leading this service and plans on having a special program that day. It will be fun! We are planning on having the main dishes catered but will accept deserts. We will be meeting at the big pavilion in Glik Park located on East Lake Drive in Edwardsville. There are air-conditioned restrooms, playground for the kids, a sand volleyball court, basketball hoops, walking trails. Please mark this date and plan on joining us. This will be a good chance to meet and mingle.  There will be more info to come.

When New people show up at our service!  I believe that when a new person or family shows up at our service, God has brought them to us for a reason! It is up to all of us to make sure they feel welcome and comfortable. God has a plan with new people and we must not hinder that plan by ignoring this gift! And when someone new shows up at a church, it is a gift!
Pastor Jackie and I will be doing a special Greeters training on June 21st at 7:00pm at the church.
We believe that greeting is a ministry! We are looking for volunteers who would be interested in this ministry. This is a very important ministry because when God sends new people to us, it is critical that we connect with them in a very special way. That is what this training will be about. Pray about this and please join us on the 21st if you would be interested in this ministry.

Prayers requested.

Floyd Fisher, please pray for Floyd who will be having several tests this week for his heart and kidneys.

Colin Rives, grandson of Judy and Bill Daubensteck. Colin is 13 years old and has osteosarcoma and is in treatment.

Connor, Mary and Lee Knapp's grandson, healing for severe head trauma.

Pray for God to unveil an "Impossible" glorious plan for our two congregations.
