What a great time of worship we had this week at

PRBC! It was a blessing to see so many children
serving in our church. We are blessed to have so
many dedicated childrens ministry staff, MDO
workers, preschool workers, and childrens ministry
volunteers. Thank you all for making our Childrens
Ministry Day so special.
For the past few months, PRBC has been involved in
an exciting endeavor that we have called Vision
Discovery. The staff, the lay leaders and the
members of our congregation have prayed and
worked together to identify the kind of church that
God is calling us to be. Our purpose was not to set
out a strategic plan for our future, but rather to
discover Gods plan for our future.
We have worked to simplify the activities of the
church by clarifying the purpose of the things that we
do. In the future, we will be able to clearly
communicate why we do the things that we do and
why we do not do some things. These are genuinely
exciting days for PRBC.
This Sunday, we will probably have our last vision
discovery meeting. At this meeting, we will tie up the
loose ends and complete the work that we started in
the summer. I am so thankful for the people who
have met, prayed, pondered, discussed, and
synergized through this process. I would like to
personally invite you to this final meeting Sunday at
4:30 in the Fellowship Hall because we need your
input and insight. The more people we have involved
in this process, the better the end result will be.
God is doing a great work at PRBC, and I am expecting
that He will continue to do even greater things. I look
forward to seeing you this Sunday at worship. Bring
someone with you.

Dr. Josh Cook
