PRC VOLUNTEERS ARE THE GREATEST!

 

If you didn’t make it to our Volunteer Appreciation cookout last Saturday, you missed a blessing.  Sonja and   home.  About twenty volunteers were there.  The food was delicious, and after dinner we sat and introduced ourselves to one another and went over some memories of the past few years.  Then we played a game that brought lots of laughter.

Scott Seidler were so gracious to have us at their beautiful

Each volunteer is precious to this ministry and if you did or did not make it to the cookout we just want you to know you are loved and appreciated.  Please remember to pick up your appreciation gift the next time you come to serve.

Summer is starting and school is about to be out.  A lot of exciting things happen this time of year.  As many of our volunteers plan vacations we are reminded that there are many hours where we will be short handed.  If you would like to fill one of these slots, please call the office, we will let you know the times where your help is needed.

We are praising God for two who prayed to receive Jesus Christ as their savior just yesterday.  Each one was so special.  Connie said, “The hairs on my arm was standing on end, I felt God was using me to speak to this girl.”

She picked out a church on our church list and stated she would start attending.  Her name was written on our Wall of Life and Connie filled out a Church Referral form.  Her name and information was then sent to the church of her choice for contact.

Later in the afternoon, another name went up on the Wall of Life.   Kathy brought a beautiful woman to my door and asked her to tell me what had just happened to her.  With a big smile on her face she stated that she had prayed to receive Christ.  I asked her if that meant she had accepted Him into her life and that she would be following Him.  She assured me that was what it meant.  She also stated she would be attending a small group at church.

Does this not make you glad to be a part of a ministry where the Kingdom of God is growing?  It sure does me.  Sharing Jesus, stopping abortion, and helping pregnant women is our mission and we get to see that mission met often around here.

Wednesday evening was Mission Emphasis at Hiland Park Baptist Church.  Becky and Beverly set up a table and many stopped by and received information.  They also purchased the precious feet pens and Crossroads of the Heart video.  If you would like some of these to offer to your group, just stop by the Center.  Baby Bottles are also available.

Coming up:

Pregnancy Resource Center at the Beach will begin classes on June 6.  We have several signed up and teachers ready to go.  We will be meeting at the new center on Wednesday, June 1 to organize files, baby items, and get ready for the following Monday evening.  We have some book cases and a clothes rack that needs assembly, so if you can help, just call for directions and time.

Client Assistant training is set for Saturday, June 18.  Even some of our receptionists and teachers are planning to attend to learn more about counseling women in crisis.  A signup sheet is in the office.  Call if you want your name added to the list.  Breakfast will be at 8:30AM and we will be concluded by noon.  Hope to see many new faces.

The biggest thing this ministry needs, and it is always true, is prayer.  The areas we would ask you to pray 

about are:

For our staff and volunteers to be kept safe from the evil one

For abortion minded callers to be compelled to come to the Center

For abortion minded women to change their mind upon counseling or seeing the ultrasound or their baby

For a God to increase the size of our tent – reach more and more who need our help

The enemy does not want this ministry to flourish.  He is working all the time to hurt it, but guess what – greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world.

Pulling out the red white and blue for Memorial Day I am reminded from Memorial Day to Labor Day it seems to center around patriotism.   Truly no greater need for prayer is needed than for our country. 

“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.”  Proverbs 14:34

Memorial Day weekend is already behind us.  I hope each of you had a wonderful relaxing and worshipful long weekend.  

God is soooo good!
