Children's Church


Effective immediately, we will be taking a break from our Children's Church program.  Thank you.

TONIGHT


Join us tonight at 6:30 pm for Potluck.  Come for the food, stay for the fellowship!

THANK YOU!!


Thank you to all who rose to the challenge and pledged funds to our Prepare campaign.  The wonderful news is we exceeded our goal of $200,000 with the Youth Ministry being fully funded!! 

If you weren't here on Sunday or have not been able to get your pledge in, don't worry!  We still have the opportunity and challenge to bring the Renovation and One Voice Choir funds to being fully funded.  You can bring your pledge to the office during the week or put in the offering with "Prepare" in the memo line.
 
THANK YOU!!

2019 Faith Build


In 2018, Prairie Hills contributed $500 toward the Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sioux Falls "Thrivent Faith Build" to help finance the construction of a home for a family in need.  If you would like to be involved in the 2019 Faith Build by either praying, volunteering or financially contributing, please sign the board in the picture.  This board will be made into a coat rack for the family that receives the home through this program.  The board will be on display for signing at the Welcome Table in the Gathering Space through Sunday, September 8th.

IMPORTANT NEWS!  One Voice rehearsals will need a number of volunteers to help facilitate an efficient and fun experience for all our guests. We have a wonderful opportunity to showcase our beautiful building and our incredible hospitality. To do that well, we have two teams leading the volunteers. Our Host Church Lead teams are:  1. John and Melissa Schutte and 2. Lisa Ross and Connie Hanson. 

For all of you who have volunteered, Thank you!  This gives our Host Church Leads a list they can work with to begin to fill the slots required to make everything run smoothly at rehearsals. If you haven’t signed up to help yet, you can do that on the website at http://www.onevoice.community.  If you have already signed up to volunteer, the Host Church Leads will be reaching out to you. And thank you again for volunteering!

Also, One Voice is very excited to be able to offer scholarships for those wanting to sing in the choir but have a financial hardship situation. Each contribution goes toward the $40 registration costs per singer.   The One Voice table in the Gathering Space is staffed each Sunday, before and after church. You’ll see our bulletin board loaded with tags for the Scholarship Fund. Grab one (or five) off the board and hand your donation to the person at the table or drop your donation in the weekly offering indicating that it is for One Voice Scholarship Fund. This is a wonderful way to support the choir as we get closer and closer to that first rehearsal. If you’d rather be more anonymous, use the DONATE tab on the website. Thank you in advance for your support. 

One Voice has a limited number of bracelets left. They sell for $12. Each purchase provides one week of clean water in the Central African Republic. So you are actually supporting missions locally and globally with the purchase of a bracelet. Stop by the table in the Gathering Space and get a few before they’re gone. 

We still have T-shirts available for purchase. Currently we have them in all Adult sizes but some sizes are nearly out. Stop by and get yours today. You don’t want to miss out on this chance to get a PREMIERE SEASON T-shirt.
