"Always, everywhere God is present, and always He seeks to discover Himself to each one." ~ A.W. Tozer

One Sunday down with 51 more to go. 

As PPC moves along with its building plans, our talks about that space combined with the New Year has me thinking about ‘space’ in a few different ways.

On the surface ‘building space’ may seem pretty mundane; a handful of spaces sectioned off by walls with lights above and carpeting below…

…yet…

…I get to hear stories about the way our ‘space’ puts goodness into the lives of many who might not otherwise be touched by that goodness – let alone be touched by a church as it carries God’s goodness to others.

A few recent examples come quickly to mind:

The recent Breakfast with Santa hosted by an outside agency here and the ‘laughter’ from children that filled this space – children whose lives can use an extra dose of laughter.

A substance abuse recovery group is now meeting here; young adults and their sponsors talk and listen as ‘trust and healing’ fills this space.

PEO meets here; their fellowship fills this space as they create ‘educational opportunities’ for women that arise from this space.

Our local homeless shelters has its board meetings here, and the space here helps make sure there is ‘warm and safe space’ for the most vulnerable among us.

The space of 2020 stretches out in front of us…

…may we generously fill all of our space with the fullness of God’s goodness for all.

And we’ve got space for you – we meet Sundays at 10AM.

Together We Serve,
Pastor Mike
