Come join the PCC Hiking group for our first outing of the year on Sunday June 29th, at 3PM at Lynn Canyon Park. We'll be crossing the suspension bridge and doing a relatively easy hike to get the legs back in shape! Please be prepared with weather-appropriate clothing - we'll go rain or shine! 

Maureen Nystrom, a beloved member of our church family, has been battling cancer for some time. Initially, she requested that her situation be kept private. As the complications from this terrible disease affected her body, she recently gave us permission to share her health challenges with our congregation.

Maureen was receiving care at Mission Hospice, and Pastor Prince, along with other church leaders, visited her during this time and she expressed her desire to be with Jesus soon. Maureen passed away peacefully on Friday, June 20, 2025, surrounded by her close loved ones. We thank you for covering Maureen in prayer and we ask you to continue to pray for her loved ones as we mourn Maureen's loss.

We will update you with information about the Celebration of Life as it comes available.

Hello Everyone! I hope your Summer has gotten off to a wonderful start. 

I want to share a positive staffing update with you. After prayerfully and intentionally discerning with our church's elders, including myself, I am thrilled to share that Pastor Diane, who has faithfully served as our Youth Pastor, will be stepping into a new role as Associate Pastor of Engagement and Outreach here at Pacific Community Church.

Over the last few years, Diane has poured energy, passion, and time into disciplining our youth and helping them grow in faith and community. Her leadership has shaped our young people and enriched our entire church family through her preaching.

In this new role, Diane will focus on helping us build deeper connections within our congregation and extend our reach into the community. She will give leadership to initiatives that:

• Strengthen hospitality and newcomer engagement.
• Cultivate small groups and spiritual formation opportunities.
• Coordinate outreach and local missions efforts.
• Equip our church to embody the Gospel in everyday life.
• Expand our reach on social media platforms.
• Amongst other tasks.

This transition reflects Pastor Diane’s growing gifts and our church's evolving needs. Please join us in praying for her as she begins this next chapter and in celebrating the good work God continues to do through her ministry.

We are grateful for Diane’s heart for God and passion for helping others find their place in God’s story. This is an exciting step for her and all of us at PCC. She will start serving in this role in July.

We will also begin an intentional process of identifying the next person God is calling to serve as our Youth Pastor immediately. Our plans for our youth during the summer months will continue as Diane will work closely with our interns.  Please keep our young people and the person God calls to pastor them in your prayers.

In Christ,
Pastor Prince

It's that wonderful time of year when we can enjoy the outdoors! We invite you to join us for a barbecue and an extended time of worship together as a church family on July 27th at 5pm!

Beginning June 29 and continuing through September 7, we will take a break from posting sermon questions for the summer. This pause allows our community to recharge as many groups also take time off during this season. 

We invite you to share your faith story, a powerful testament that has the ability to inspire and uplift others on their unique faith journeys. Your story not only has the potential to resonate deeply with others but can also encourage them to express and share their own faith!

Transformative justice is one of our values at Pacific, and the Mount Currie RSR missions trip to serve the local indigenous communities is a great way to live out this value. The Pacific team serving will be able to help prepare the grounds for people to come and hear the gospel at this years camp which takes place July 17-20!  If this is something you would like to get involved with, contact Sarah Mast

We invite you to keep our team and the camp in your prayers. . 

We're heading to Camp Kawkawa on the weekend of September 12-14 for students in Grades 6-12. Note that the price has gone up because their rate has increased. We have subsidized a portion of the registration. If finances are a barrier to a student attending, please contact Pastor Diane. This retreat is open to everyone, so please invite friends! We would love to see 30 students attend this year.

We have changed slightly how we receive the Lord’s Supper. Instead of coming forward to take the elements and returning to our seats to partake of the bread and drink from the cup after everyone has been served, we will pause to partake of the elements at the station where we receive them. There will be a basket on the aisle seat for your empty communion cup. If you prefer to continue taking it back to your seat feel free to do so. 

The primary reason for this is to create more intentional space within our worship experience for responsive prayer to what God may minister to us in our hearts as we listen to His preached word, worship Him through singing songs, listen to scriptures, and pray together, among other expressions.  Read more below for details!

Thank you for your gifts, we have raised $12,290 and hope to collect another $12,710. Click on the link below to give!

We are launching a PCC Care Team to carry out the scriptural mandate given by God for followers of Jesus to love each other well as He has loved us. The primary purpose/objective of the care team is to embody the love and compassion of the Triune God to His people who call PCC their church home.
