TODD’S TAKE
Good morning and welcome to our worship services. If you are a guest with us today, our prayer is that you are blessed by our time of worship.
 
Summer is in full swing here at PACOC! Wednesday brought us the perfect combination of cool weather and warm fellowship at our Church at the Park. We've already had a group of kids serve at Boles Home, and this past week we hosted our annual Sewing Camp (see pictures to the right). Currently, a group of our young people are out at Camp Deer Run for a two-week session in the woods of east Texas, where they're enjoying God's creation and diving deep into His Word. In fact, that's where I am this morning, worshipping alongside them.
 
But there's more to come! Our summer lineup includes Chef's Kitchen, youth camps at Abilene Christian & Oklahoma Christian. Rounding out the summer is our mission trip to Casa de la Esperanza & Christian Theater Workshop.
 
We are truly blessed with all these opportunities to serve others, deepen our relationships with one another, and experience God's love more and more. Thank you all for being part of our PACOC family.
