Tonight’s offering will be given to the PCA Ministerial Fund. This fund is used to provide assistance for disabled and needy retired pastors, missionaries, and church lay workers, their widows and dependent children. Very often a disabled or retired pastor or the widow of a pastor is faced with serious financial hardship. The PCA has established this fund to help meet this need. We here at Pioneer are pleased to take part in this denomination-wide offering. We encourage your participation.
