PCC All Stars


For the 10th straight year in a row the American League beat the National League in Major League Baseball's All-Star Game last night.

After prayer meeting (which was awesome), I caught the last 3 innings of the game. It looked like the NL was going to actually win when during the bottom of the 9th inning they had the bases loaded with only 2 outs and down one run.

Although they didn't pull out the victory, it was fun to see all the heroes of the game compete together on one field. Of course, as a Met fan, it was cool to see Reyes, Wright and Wagner (except the home run he gave up) out there with the NL and even AL All-Stars.

As I was reflecting on the game, I began to consider the All Stars that God has put on PCCs team. So, here's my line up of PCC All Stars.

1. Prayer Partners. Those of you that are faithful to prayer and especially the prayer meeting. These are the people who understand the value and significance of prayer. They understand that nothing happens in PCC without prayer. Thanks for committing your time and efforts to this ministry.

2. Community Group Leaders. These "Most Valuable Players" on the All Star team open their homes and hearts every week to PCC members and attenders. They share their life with others and provide an opportunity and environment to help people grow closer to God and to one another. This is the heart of PCC as we strive to "lead others into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ."

3. Ministry Team Leaders and Volunteers. These are the people who literally make PCC happen. Honestly, we would not have a church if it were not for those that faithfully serve every weekend. So, let me send out a big THANK YOU to those that serve: bulletin stuffers, setup/tear down/, musicians, singers, media team, ushers, greeters, parking lot attendants, hospitality, security, prayer team, nursery and preschool volunteers and kids ministry team and the many other ministry teams that make PCC such a fun place to be.


You are all ALL STARS in my book! Thanks for playing on PCC's team.
