With Deep Appreciation
we thank Mark & Brenda Smith for their years of service to our Juniors Sabbath School class. They have led that class with extraordinary faithfulness, mentoring our students in the way of Christ. Only Heaven can measure the depth and longevity of their impact on time and eternity. Thank you, Brenda & Mark, for your generous service! As you retire from Juniors SS leadership, we bless you and wish you many happy years with the adults :)

SNACK SHACK 2025 – HELPERS NEEDED!
Contact Aileen Stanley ASAP at 503/780-1470 (cell & WhatsApp) or by email at pvcpantherspathfinderclub@gmail.com.
Our PVC Panthers Pathfinder club needs your help! With the younger ages of our current club, we have a great need for people that can serve ice cream, drinks, and bento bowls. The youngest person that can help must be 14 years of age, but there is no upper age limit. In fact, only adults can serve the bento bowls.
Our Pathfinder club has been working at the Snack Shack since 2012 every camp-meeting to raise funds for our club to attend the International NAD Camporee. Some of the funds have been used for Bible Experience trips and for discounting the constantly increasing cost of the great events Pathfinders participate in. Please help if you are able. Thank you for supporting your Pathfinder club!

Sexual Integrity 101
PVC is hosting a series of mid-week conversations around God’s vision for sexuality called Sexual Integrity 101, and we look forward to having you in the room with us. We all desire sexual integrity for ourselves and for others, but often struggle to know where to start, and that’s what this is for. We are learning to live as people who are free — so join us Wednesday nights starting July 30 for Sexual Integrity 101.
This is a forum for learning and everyone is welcome. Parents, partners, singles, teachers, leaders, and Christians of all life stages will benefit, and even those who personally want freedom from the effects of unwanted sexual behavior and betrayal. More info and resgistration here.

SPIRITUAL COMPANIONSHIP
micro-groups
Faith was never meant to be a solo journey, and every single one of us needs an earthly friend as a companion in the light. Consider joining or starting a "micro-group": a group of 2-4 people living in the light together, practicing reading Scripture, prayer, and honesty, and meeting once a week.
You can choose your own group members. If you want to join a group and have no one to invite, we can try to link you up with an existing group or someone else looking for a partner. Visit pvclife.com/groups for more information.

THE JOURNEY TO WHOLENESS - Christ-centered Twelve Step Recovery
Thursdays at 7:00pm • Pleasant Valley Church Youth Room (Rm 5)
Are you looking for more support in your journey to living free? Maybe you're working through the process of reckoning and release that we've been talking about in our Unburdened series and the Releasing Bitterness seminar. Perhaps you've lost a loved one through death or divorce, and you'd like support in your journey. Or maybe you've been wrestling with an unhealthy dependency upon substances or other destructive behaviors. Did you know that PVC has a weekly 12-step recovery group meeting called Journey to Wholeness?
Journey to Wholeness is a support system for people of any faith (or lack thereof) who are struggling with things that are hurting them or the people they love. It presents a 12-step model for understanding God and ourselves as God’s creation.
Come on Thursday nights at 7:00 PM and you'll find a safe and anonymous group of individuals who are committed to health, healing, sanity, and serenity. We hope you'll join us on the Journey to Wholeness!

LIBRARY BOOK CART
"We've got a lot of new books that have just been donated," reports our Book Cart librarian, Rit Kunau. You're encouraged to find a book that might bless you and take it home with you. Bring it back when you're ready for the next person to read it. There are books for adults and for children.
PRAYER WARRIORS:
Join us Sabbath Mornings at 8:30 am in Room 7
Prayer Warriors support the church through prayer, interceding, or earnestly asking for God's will to be done, for others. If you are interested in being a part of the Prayer Warriors group, please contact the church office.
DWELL WITH PVC
Meditate on God's Word with PVC
We have a church subscription to Dwell Audio Bible, a mobile-based app for your phone or tablet that lets you listen to Scripture in a variety of translation with a rich list of features, like themed playlists, kids’ devotionals, reading plans, memorize mode, and reflection options. If you join our membership, you’ll have access to all of the subscription features for the next year, and we encourage all of our PVC Fam to take this opportunity to make Scripture a part of daily life.
