Commitment Sunday: Praise God

Commitment Sunday - God's Blessing

PBC's members and congregation generously gave on Sunday at Commitment Sunday's Gift Day.  Here, Selina gives an account of how God prepared the way for her 'stretched' gift in obedience to the prompting of the Holy Spirit in her heart.

'Just thought I would write quickly and encourage you about an outcome of Commitment Sunday for me. I'd already had a figure in my head before I came to the church, but after you said to ‘stretch' it and challenge myself to trust God, I did just that and ended up giving more than double what I originally intended. Commitment Sunday was the day before payday for me, and being a ‘tight' month anyway I have to admit I was a bit uncomfortable... but when I received my payslip on Monday morning, I found that I had had an arrears adjustment for the same amount as I have donated to the church! So I thought I would write and tell you about it... God is so faithful!'

Praise God from whom all blessings flow.

Easter week at PBC has some thought provoking and interesting opportunities for worship and glorifying our living God. There's Good Friday service at 10am, followed by the Walk of Witness at 11am to the Village Green for the HOPE Pembury Churches Together annual service on the green. Hot cross buns and refreshments will be served at the Hanes' home after the service finishes. And on Easter Sunday, there's three baptisms taking place in the morning at 10am followed by a family opportunity at 5pm to enjoy a cinematic experience with popcorn, icecream and fizzy pop whilst watching The Miracle Maker.
