Why We Give to support the ministry of Payson Park Church.
Our Congregation has SO MUCH to be THANKFUL for!
✚ In a Pandemic year,
our faithful team never stopped serving monthly home-cooked meals to
the hungry & homeless of Bristol Lodge.
We thank you leaders!
With our many faithful volunteer chefs and delivery drivers.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
We ADDED a new outreach ministry, to The Outdoor Church.
Thank you leaders for coordinating our efforts,
With our faithful sandwich makers, we assembled dozens of homemade sandwiches every
two weeks for the hungry and homeless in Cambridge.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
When it is so difficult to reach and share with others our caring church community, we added three new members!
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
While every church around us shut down their choirs, and gave up on singing together again
until the world is past the coronavirus, our choir kept singing weekly.
Online. Together. In full throated harmony.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
When school children are already overcome with too much screen time,
Our teens shared their faith in worship on Youth Sunday. Twice! Seven different teens.
Speaking about their lives, Covid and anti-racist protests, and God’s Word.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
When after the killing of George Floyd our society grappled with racism in a new way,
Our Table Talk discussion group encouraged Council to take visible action.
Council added a public statement “We are an anti-racist church” to our website,
And Table Talk continues to lead our congregation in education towards concrete actions.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
We once again held a Sunday worship of Appreciation for our First Responders.
We added in Social Workers, and frontline health care workers, to our previous mix of
Police, Fire, and EMTs. Police Chief MacIsaac and BC Social Work Prof. Ximena spoke in
worship, addressing systemic racism and praise for all First Responders, as our congregation
gave thanks to God for our Police, Fire, EMTs, Social Workers, Doctors, Nurses, and more.
No other area church held a Sunday Appreciation for our First Responders.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
In Christ’s name, we helped the hurting and the poor;
Not only through The Outdoor Church & Bristol Lodge, but also through -
Chelsea One,
common cathedral,
Cradles to Crayons,
local food pantries,
RIP Medical Debt,
. . . . and more.
Despite the Pandemic, we are holding STEADY and we are THRIVING.
✚ In a Pandemic year,
we continue to offer faithful and lively weekly Bible studies, TLC (Theology, Literature & Coffee) monthly, worship of God every Sunday, caring and outreach to our homebound and sick, regular contact with Sunday School children, creative new offerings such as Lawnchair Evening Prayer, and much more.
We are Growing with God, for the Good of the World!
