P-View Snapshot October 2025 Edition

OCTOBER 2025

Hello, Pickens View Church family and friends!  Here’s the P-View Snapshot for October 2025! Take a “quick look” and get updated on all that is happening at PVWC!
Our Fall Picnic is Sunday!  We will have a hay ride and the 9-square game available for the kids (and adults too!).  If you can’t remember what you signed up to bring, click here to see the sign-up sheet.  Don’t forget to bring your chairs!

The address to the Table Rock Wesleyan Camp is 125 Bethany Cove Drive, Pickens, SC 29671.  If you put Table Rock Wesleyan Camp and Retreat Center as the location in Google Maps, it will take you straight to it.  Once you turn off Hwy 11, the Tabor building, where we will be having our picnic, will be on your left.  There will be a parking lot in front of it, and you should see others gathering around on the backside of the Taber building.  
We are so thankful for the many people who serve in ministry week in and week out. Each one of us is impacted in some way by someone who is serving. 

As PVWC continues to experience growth, we need to grow our ministry teams so we can continue to adequately serve one another. To do that, we need you!  If you aren’t currently serving in an area of ministry, please prayerfully consider where you can serve within our church family.  If you are already serving, but want to consider a different area, or adding an area, we’d love to know that too!

To learn more about the different ministry serving opportunities and to sign up, please go to our website at: https://pickensviewchurch.com/serving-opportunities/.  If you would like to receive additional information before signing up, please contact Pastor Barry at vteam.barry@gmail.com.
Life After Loss Support Group meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month.  It is a 6-week course that continually cycles over and over, so you can join at any time. New folks have been joining us – how about you? Grief is a difficult journey. It is helpful to have the support of others and information to better understand what you are experiencing.
Prayer Gathering happens on the 2nd Saturday of every month at 9 AM in Room 201.  All are welcome!  Please enter through the glass door that is to the right of the church building, behind the carport.
BYF (Best Year’s Fellowship) is such a great way to fellowship with your fellow 55+ PVWC family members! For those beautiful people who are 55 years and up, plan to join us at Strawberry Hill USA Cafe in Chesnee, SC, on October 16th!  It’s about an hour from Pickens, so let us take you on our bus to help you save on gas!
Are you new to PVWC and would like to get to know us better? Pizza with the Pastors is a great way to discover more about who we are and what we are all about. In addition to sharing life together over a meal, you will have an opportunity to hear from our PVWC pastors and staff. If you would like to attend, or if you have any questions, please email Meredith at pickensviewwesleyan@gmail.com.
Live Nativity is 78 days away!  We appreciate all the heart that everyone puts into this event each year!  Please mark your calendars for December 19th – 21st and plan to be available to serve!  Michelle and Meredith will start the volunteer sign-up sheet later this month!  If you are new to PVWC and would like to know more about the Live Nativity outreach event or the areas in which to serve, please contact the church office at either 864-878-2324 or pickensviewwesleyan@gmail.com.
Did you know that SWU has a hidden gem within the Fine Arts Department!  The talent within the student body, alumni, and community seems to always amaze me!  You can never go wrong attending one of their many concerts and productions throughout the year! 

JUKEBOX JUNCTION is this weekend!
On October 3rd and 4th, @ 7 PM is Showstopper Spectacular.  This year’s theme, Jukebox Junction, will feature singing and dancing numbers from the 1950s and 1960s.  Plan to come and bring a friend! It is going to be a fun night with the best of the oldies and goodies music! You won’t be disappointed!  Tickets are still on sale for $12 and can be purchased at: www.swu.edu/showstopperjj.
Every Sunday morning from 9:30 AM to 10:15 AM, we offer a handful of wonderful Bible studies for you to get plugged into.  If you haven’t been joining us during our Discipleship Hour or you are looking for a Bible Study on Sunday mornings, we have something for everyone!  Nursery and classes for ages 2 and up are always available.  To learn more, please go to our website at https://pickensviewchurch.com/discipleship/.
                       BAPTISM SUNDAY                       
One of my favorite services is Baptism Sunday, which was on September 14th.  We celebrated with the six who came forward to show their profession of faith in Jesus Christ through the act of Baptism!  To see the recorded service, click here.
        MEMBERSHIP RECEPTION SUNDAY        
September 21st was our Membership Reception Service.  We are excited to share that we had 7 new members join our PVWC family!
Sweet Jimmie went home to be with the Lord on September 12th.  We will miss him, but celebrate that he is now made whole in the presence of Jesus!  If you would like to see his funeral service, click here.

Barbara asked us to pass on the following message to the PVWC Family:


Sept 2025
“To our wonderful PVWC Family,
Thank you so much for all the support you have shown all of us during Jimmie’s declining health and death.  The flowers were beautiful and the meal was delicious.  We are blessed to have such a wonderful Pastoral Staff and Church family!”


The Jimmie Andrew’s Family

Praise the Lord! Thank you to those who have answered the call to go to the ends of the earth and spread the gospel of Jesus!
