This Month in Chippewa

Welcome, Ross and Lisa!
Please join us in welcoming Ross Owens as our new Moon Campus/Small Groups Pastor! Ross and his wife Lisa are now serving on our two campuses, and their impact is already being felt. Ross comes to Pathway with vast experience in church ministry and in the corporate world, and he’s looking forward to using those leadership skills to help you get more connected and grow in your faith. Congratulations, Ross and Lisa!  We’re thrilled to have you in our Pathway family!

Men’s Ministry Cookout

Men of Pathway, we hope you can join us at 6pm on Friday, May 16, for an evening of delicious food, captivating conversation, and a powerful message from our very own Zane Phlegar. We’ll take care of grilling the hamburgers and hot dogs for this cookout near the fire pit, but we invite you to bring any picnic side dishes you desire. Please RSVP to Josh Nelson at jjnelson_74@icloud.com to let him know what you will bring.

Lost and Found 
Misplaced your Bible, sunglasses or coffee thermos? There’s a good chance they’re in the Lost and Found cupboard at our Information Center. Please stop by to see if we have your item.

The Chisel

If you are battling deep hurts or unwanted habits, this recovery ministry follows a process based on the beatitudes to help you find restoration through the power of Christ. We meet year-round from 7-9pm each Monday. To learn more, email Mark Stewart at stewart@stewarthomes1.com.

Time of Prayer

The Elders of Pathway will host their next prayer gathering at 6pm on Thursday, April 24. We’ll meet in the room off the main lobby across from the library. This month’s prayer focus will be on the finances of our church.

Newcomers Luncheon
Newer to Pathway? Our next lunch event will take place after the 10:45am service on Sunday, May 18. We’ll gather in the café where you can enjoy a free meal, meet our pastors and directors, connect with others in our church family, and share how you’d like to plug in to our ministries. Child care will be provided, although your kids are welcome to attend with you. Just write “Newcomers Luncheon” on your Connect Card to sign up. Questions? Call the church office at 724.843.6381.

Student Ministries Auction
What do 52 students, dozens of volunteers, 480 donated items, 153 registered bidders, and 112 winners add up to? Another successful year for our annual Student Ministries Auction! This year’s auction and soup luncheon raised more than $13,000! Thank you, Pathway! Because of your generosity, our youth will be able to attend mission trips in Panama and North Carolina this summer, as well as retreats and other ministry activities. We so appreciate you donating items and services, bidding on them, and joining us for some delicious soup after the auction. Your generosity will make a HUGE impact on the next generation! If you missed your chance to bid on items but still want to bless a student, email students@lifeatpathway.com and we’ll share all the ways you can help our youth.

SonZone Dates Set

It’s never too early to get ready for SonZone, the best week of summer for kids who have finished kindergarten through fifth grade! This year’s big event will take place the week of July 14-18. If you’re a parent of kids who enjoy fun in the sun, you won’t want to miss this incredible week! And if you’re an adult or teen with a heart for serving children, we’d love to have you help! Registration will open soon.

Premarital Counseling 
Did you know Pathway Church offers premarital counseling? If you are planning to get married in the fall or spring, we encourage you to sign up for a six-session counseling program with one of our pastors. It’s practical. It’s enlightening. And it’s a wonderful way to strengthen your relationship before walking down the aisle. To register or to learn more, email Mattie Livada at mlivada@lifeatpathway.com.

Just write your email address on your Connect Card along with the words “RightNow Media.” We’ll take it from there.

We believe worshiping, growing, and serving are vital to the life of our church, so our desire is for each of you to engage in all three areas. Here’s how:

Worship: Take part in one of our weekend services in Chippewa or in Moon.

Grow: If you desire spiritual growth, prayer and friendship, join one of our weekday small groups or a Sunday morning group.

Serve: We offer a variety of ministry opportunities where you can serve God and each other. Jump in and find your fit!
