When you were in school, didn't you love going on a field trip? You boarded a bus with your friends, saw something new and made some memories together. Well, the PCMK family went on a field trip Sunday. After a fabulous Sunday School Sunday we packed into cars and headed to the Fellowship Hall in Bedford Hills. The Hall is a senior housing community that was initially sponsored by PCMK and we continue to support the community in a variety of ways. Members of our church serve on the board and the social justice committee has provided financial support and work teams.
On Sunday we brought the Angelikids choir who put on a little program for the residents. It is easy to say that they enjoyed every moment and every note that was sung. Many of them were singing along or tapping their feet. I was so proud of our kids as it had been a very long morning for them. Elisabeth does a marvelous job organizing and motivating them and she has great help from her assistant, Lindsay Emery. Watching them let off steam and play after the program was a truly joy-filled moment.
Nancy Osborne and the adult education committee organized the field trip to inform the congregation of this tremendous community resource. Thanks to her and the committee for making this happen (and bringing along the cookies!). Thanks also go to Coz Procopis who gives such steady leadership to the Fellowship Hall year in and year out.
It is amazing all the ways our church connects with the larger community. We have a good reputation out there--let's keep it up.
See you in church,
Pastor Dale
