God destined us for adoption as his children through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace that he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. ~ Ephesians 1:5-6

My children led me to Pinnacle… Eighteen years ago I was looking for a preschool for my son, Christopher. I wanted a preschool that was rooted in play, and would be engaging and fun. (I kind of wanted a preschool that reminded me of my own nursery school days). Research brought me to Pinnacle Presbyterian Preschool, and we were lucky enough to secure a spot. Immediately, I felt the love and the warmth of the Pinnacle community. There was a sense of peace each time I entered the campus, and I felt that I was a part of the whole church community. My son Timothy attended PPP a few years later, and then my daughter Julia came through. When Julia was in the second half of her Jackrabbit (final) year, I felt so sad to be leaving my Pinnacle community. So, we decided to attend Pinnacle Presbyterian Church to keep the connection going. Pinnacle was a big change from our tiny previous church, but walking into the sanctuary felt like coming home - I knew that this was the place we were supposed to be. I feel so blessed to be a part of the Pinnacle Family.
Prayer: Thank you for the plans you have for me and for my family and our church. Thank you for seeing each of us as beloved. Amen.
