MISSIONS
Matthew 28:18-20 "Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in Heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.'"
PVCC financially supports the following domestic and international missions:
American Indian Christian Mission (AICM)

AICM is a boarding school for children mostly from the White Mountain Apache Tribe in Show Low, AZ. Children board from Sunday-Friday evening. During the week they attend classes at the mission (grades K-8th). Students for 9-12th grades stay and attend the local high school. In addition to the boarding and school, AICM is active on the White Mountain Apache Reservation with the Blue Bus Ministry. This bus brings games, toys and mission teams to share the love of Jesus with the children there. Our Teen LIFE group has made trips to AICM to participate with their Blue Bus ministry.

As part of our VBS mission, our youth and children ministries decided to take responsibility for a child’s sponsorship. Our goal is to continue sponsorship till this child reaches age 18 (and ages out of the program), to pray for her each week, and to encourage her with notes and cards. We have also sought out ways to help her and her family with supplies they need such as extra food, books or clothing.
