The breakfast seemed more like a banquet…awesome! We thank Barbara Cooper and team for their typically excellent job with the meal! Thanks also to a dedicated and talented team that decorated for the event! Several of our singles shared about the work and service of our groups with approximately 35 different missions and partnering organizations! God is at work among our singles!

Javier and Carla Leon of the Rosemont Church of Christ in south Fort Worth were our special guests for the morning. It was such a treat to have them with us! The weather was gray and rainy but the food and fellowship at Prestoncrest was bright and shiny! Thanks to all who attended the breakfast and generously provided your financial and prayerful support! You really are “World Class”!

This “come and go” event is to share plans and pray for our Prestoncrest Singles 2009 service ministries! It’s an excellent way to hear about some mission trips already planned, some new opportunities developing, meet new people, hang out with good friends and encourage others. Donations will be accepted with proceeds helping to purchase supplies and funding for general mission needs along with outreach to the cities of Dallas and Ft. Worth ministries.

Last year, the Prestoncrest Singles’ World Class Breakfast with an outstanding attendance and generous contributors helped raise $4,897! Looking forward to seeing you there this year! RSVP today!

Prestoncrest Singles and Memorial Road Church of Christ Singles had an Excellent Area-Wide Retreat at QuartzMountain Christian Camp in Lone Wolf, OK, March 20-22!

Our Prestoncrest Singles enjoyed a great weekend of fellowship and spiritual challenge in western Oklahoma with other regional singles.  Prestoncrest and Memorial Road Singles ministries hosted this second annual regional event!

This is the second year for the retreat. A big thank you to Anastasia Svec and Nathan Pope for helping organize this time of relaxation and enrichment!

God calls us to spread his word and take care of those who need help. So often, we think of that as planning a weeks-long mission trip around the world and we overlook the people in our own communities that need help. In Dallas-Fort Worth, there are the forgotten people we overlook on the streets that don’t have a home or a warm place to call their own. There are people, our neighbors, we see every day that need our love and care as we share God’s word with them.

In November, we issued a call to our Prestoncrest Singles to donate gently used or new coats and blankets for “Covering Dallas with Love.” We planned to distribute the items donated to the homeless community and those who needed it. The response was OVERWHELMING. YOU nearly filled up half of our B1 Singles room at Preston Place with your kind donations.

This allowed us to make an impact in our community right here in North Texas. We distributed some of the coats and blankets via Richardson ISD and also via Rosemont Church of Christ in Fort Worth. We’ve be able to start relationships within our community and show people what a caring, god-centered people can do.

THANK YOU for your kindness and generosity.
