Dave turns 75 on November 27, and we want to celebrate this milestone with him! Dave has been a member at PVC for 22 years, and he loves his PVC fam! Everyone who knows Dave is invited to come to a birthday potluck after 2nd service on November 29. Bring your favorite dish to share, and come celebrate together! Sheets of paper are available in the church lobby that will be bound into a memory book for Dave to reminisce through. Please take one, write a favorite memory, and return it by the 29th. 

Get together with PVC seniors for a morning hangout in the church fellowship hall. We'll provide coffee, tea, and goodies. You provide a smile and a friendly spirit! You're welcome to just relax and visit with friends, or bring your favorite puzzle or game and invite others to join in. These monthly events are meant to be a regular time of connection with your spiritual community.

2026 DEVOTIONAL & SHARING BOOKS are available at a significant discount. Look for order forms on the table in the foyer. The deadline to order through PVC is December 13. (Prices thru 01/31/2026)

"Christmas Eve in the Valley"—our Candlelight Christmas Eve service—is back! It was such a wonderful experience last year that we're excited to do it again this year. Did you miss it? Well, imagine a worship service that includes: candles, hymns, scripture reading, and reflections, followed by Christmas trees, hot cocoa and cookies. We need scripture readers, cookie makers, + musicians to make this event happen. If you're willing to participate, please click the link below and indicate how you'd like to contribute. If you have any questions, reach out to Hannah Wachter at 971/270-7257 or heyhey@hannahwachter.com. We can't wait to reflect on the birth of our Savior with you!  

We would like to thank PVC members and friends who have generously donated 52 pairs of old glasses for our Global Eyeglasses Ministry Support (GEMS) project!  These glasses will be soon matched with those with those who desperately need them in Africa and Asia.

Our Project continues so “that those who do not see may see…” John‬ ‭9‬:‭39‬ ‭ESV‬‬.  A donation box is at the front reception table.
(If you would like to see where your glasses end up, please attach your name and email to the donated glasses). 

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.

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!

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.
