Text Box: The PCBC Trumpet Text Box: Do you know what your spiritual gifts are? In addition to natural talents and abilities, the child of God possesses spiritual gifts, given at the moment of salvation. Sadly, most Christians do not know where their areas of giftedness lie.

Text Box: Discovering Your Areas of Giftedness! Text Box: Establishing a ministry with a global reach requires having first-class facilities and equipment. God has been steadily, graciously, and miraculously supplying these important resources. In June a proposal for a brand new addition to our structure was presented to the church, along with the funding, and construction began. This addition will house our kitchen, fellowship hall, male and female wheelchair-accessible restrooms, and a storage area. It is now nearing completion with a target date of Thanksgiving. When completed, this will free up our entire lower level for desperately needed classroom space as well as a proposed library. Additionally, a brand new Dell computer was purchased and donated to the church. This equipment will prove invaluable, allowing us to provide assessment testing, maintain financial records, maintain inventory control and tracking for Hand of Hope Ministries, print bulletins, label CDs, and much more. Thank God for His miraculous supply. Text Box: Our marquee event of the year was held on September 11th.
