Jeff and Robin Gerke came up with a unique service project to bless kids in foster care and help the kids at our church learn about kindness: “The goal of It’s Going to Be Okay is to help foster kids know that they’re not forgotten and that comfort is available to them.”
Klista Bomberger has created a beautiful partnership to meet a big need for the students and families at her school and at the same time, model generosity and kindness for the youngest kids at Pulpit Rock Church.
Recently someone asked Thomas where Pulpit Rock Church stood on the Bible. He thought it was good conversation, worth sharing with you.
Cindy Limbrick is redefining our connection with our neighbors at the Springs Rescue Mission. She is holding space with the homeless and using art as a way to build an amazing relationship and community. And the results are simply stunning.
I believe one of the greatest mistakes Christians have made is that we communicate as if we have exclusive access to Jesus. I want to grow in being a person who invites others, regardless of their religious identities, to come alongside me to help me to better listen to Jesus.

Imagine an event where government, church, individuals, organizations, and local businesses all collaborated to love and spoil people needing some recognition. Seems a bit far-fetched, doesn’t it?

Last weekend was our middle school winter retreat, Snowbound. Our students dressed as hippies for the annual church-on-church Muck War, tested their courage on the high ropes swing (The Screamer), faced off with multiple inflatable games, consumed huge amounts of food and hot chocolate, learned about King David and worshiped Jesus together.
Several teams from Pulpit Rock serve meals at the Salvation Army shelter every month: “Our small group wanted to find a way to serve, and providing a meal for Salvation Army fit perfectly. We are able to bring our families to serve and grow together. We have enjoyed doing this for over ten years.”
Last year we set out on a daring and risky undertaking. The goal for our 2018 Christmas Offering, Venture, was our largest offering goal by a long shot. And true to form, you jumped in with both feet and blew us away with your generosity. Thank you for your hearts, your trust and your faithfulness.
Klista Bomberger heard of a need in her school and came up with an amazing and super inspiring way to meet it: “I was blown away by the number for families that stepped up and took children off the tree. It is so easy to get caught up in the negativity of the world and forget that God is good and he created goodness, love and kindness.”
