TODD'S TAKE

Good morning and welcome to our worship. It is good to have everyone with us in person today and we are glad to have those of you who are joining us online.  Thanks to Basil who will be bringing us the message this morning.

In light of world events and the needs of Ukrainians, the church will designate next Sunday as an opportunity for us to provide financial assistance to the many who are being affected.

Among the several agencies providing aid we have decided to partner with a ministry based in College Station, TX called Program for Humanitarian Aid (PHA). Long before the current crisis in Ukraine, PHA has been serving the needy there in the name of Christ. We have a special connection with PHA through one of our Elders, Kevin Dale, whose brother serves on their board.

If you wish to make a donation please use the provided envelopes that will be placed by the contribution boxes in the worship center and place that gift in the designated basket. Or you can mail your donation to the church or bring it by the church office. Please designate on your check or include a note with your cash that those funds are earmarked for Ukrainian relief. Make out all checks to the Park Avenue Church of Christ.

If contributing online, please choose Ukrainian Relief from the drop down menu on the online form.

Alternatively, we will set up a page on our website where you can make a direct contribution to PHA. In addition, we will have information on other Christian ministries that are offering aid as well if you would like to choose to donate to one of those reputable works.

Continue to pray for peace and for God’s presence to comfort the many who are suffering through this conflict.

Glad you are here to worship with us today!
