Thank you, PVBC Family!

Thank you so much to everyone who brought candy, decorated their trunks, volunteered, and prayed for our Trunk-or-Treat event last weekend!  It was a huge success and we could not have done it without each of you!  We had hundreds of children and families come through our campus and we were able to reach out to many who have never attended an event at our church before.  Thank you also to those of you who came out with your families, friends, or even just stopped by to say hi!  We hope that you will all plan to join us again next year, whether it's through serving or bringing your families and friends!  Below you can find a short recap video of the event with a brief note from our Children's Director, Anna, at the end!

Kids

MDWK (Midweek) is our school year program that runs September - May.  This ministry is designed with the entire family in mind.  Each week, our kids (3 years-5th grade) spend time hearing a Bible lesson, practicing Bible skills, learning about missions through activities, and interacting with friends during game time. 

The nursery is open to kids 2 and under during MDWK.  This is a place for our youngest attenders to have fun and begin to discover God's love for them as they are cared for by our volunteers.

Youth
Youth Illuminate (grades 6-12) meets each Wednesday night in the Youth House from 6:30-8:00pm!  Join us each week for a fun time of worship through music and a Bible lesson.

Adults of all ages are invited to our Adult Bible Study Prayer Meetings on Wednesday nights at 6:30 in the Fellowship Hall!  Join us right after Wednesday night suppers for our weekly Bible study with Pastor Bryan.
