Thank you for your support of the Pavilion and Playground Project. 

The playground materials have been ordered and are expected to arrive in March.

We are well on our way to raising the projected funds needed for both the playground and the pavilion projects.

- Pledge Payments. Thanks to all of you who made pledges. We encourage payments by the end of this year, or the first week of January, unless you have opted to give monthly through the end of 2026.

- Youth Auction Fundraiser. Thanks to our youth and all who helped at our soup tasting competition and auction. Proceeds totaled $7,053. 

Donations from pledges or any contributions can be made out to Pigeon River Mennonite Church and put in the offerings or given to Emily. Be sure to designate it to the Pavilion and Playground projects. Thank you, generous church!

Next sunday the offering will be given to the annual Harvest Offering.

If you are a Chair of a Ministry group or committee please prepare your report and send to Emily for the annual Church Celebration report book.

As we move into 2026, consider joining the Faithfully Fit accountability group. You can set your own goals for movement, weight loss, spiritual growth, and emotional health over the next 3 months.Choose the categories that are right for you and then work as a team in a friendly competition. Sign up and pick up a flyer and a goal sheet at the welcome center. Contact Marie for more information.
