Engaged... In Our Community

This is foundational to the very core DNA of PBF. In all spheres of like we want to live like Jesus on God’s Mission to see people served and saved in the name of King Jesus. So like Jesus we want to serve the hurt, the poor, the needy, and the broken and see all people come to the knowledge of the truth of the grace of God. This is summed up well in Jesus answer to the Pharisees in Mark 12:30,31 “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength… and you shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

	NOLENSVILLE We are consistently trying to incarnate the love of Jesus into our community. So instead of trying to put on events that “compete” with local community events, we simply want to be a part of what is already going on. So we lend a hand in wide variety of ways. These are largely driven by community groups and Sunday Morning Bible Study Classes.
	iSERVE Three times a year (Spring, Summer, Fall) we as a church get out into the community to serve in a wide variety of ways. This year the plans look like this: Spring – 3 service projects in Nolensville (construction and repair of a home destroyed by fire, installation of a grill at Nolensville Park, and the third one is yet to be determined. Summer – We will be assisting the Town of Nolensville with putting on its annual Fourth of July Celebration. Children’s Pastor John Whitenack is serving on the town planning committee for this event. Fall – October 31st, Reverse Trick-or-Treat.
