PLBC ANNOUNCEMENTS

This Sunday, we will have a photographer on-site capturing photos during the service and throughout the morning. These images will be used for church communications and future ministry materials. If you prefer not to be photographed, please let us know. Thank you!

Ladies and teen girls are invited to our annual Women's Christmas Fellowship on Sunday, December 7th from 2-4 pm. This year, Abby Rogers will be sharing her testimony and will be presenting the Gospel. We would love for you to invite others to join us for this time of fellowship.

Our Sunday morning service will begin at 9:30 AM as we continue The Healthy Church series. Our study will resume in Titus 3:1-11. 

Text: Titus 3:1-11

Big Idea: The gospel must move from “body life” within the church to life among a watching world that desperately needs redemption in Christ.

Outline:

1. Remember to live unto Christ before a watching world. (1-2)

2. Be motivated to live unto Christ for all He has done. (3-7)

3. Devote yourself to living unto the Lord. (8-11)

We are excited to witness the baptism of two individuals in our church this Sunday following the morning service! During this time, we will also partake in the Lord's Table together and would love for you to join us as we remember our salvation and our Savior. 

To help you learn and prepare for our service this Sunday, we've made playlists on Apple Music, YouTube, or Spotify

Parents! During our Christmas service one December 21st, our Children's Christmas Choir will be singing this song! They should already have the lyrics printed, but if they would like to listen or learn it at home, the video above should help them out. 

The Christmas season is just around the corner, and we are excited to celebrate together! Throughout December, we have several special gatherings planned for our church family—and they’re also wonderful opportunities to invite your friends, family, and neighbors to join us.

Service invitations are available on the counter in the church lobby. Please feel free to take those for your own families or to share with others you'd like to invite.
