CPC’s Youth is participating again in the Souper Bowl of Caring! CPC’s Youth has raised over $650 for Neighbor to Neighbor of Pine Bluff over the last three years of the Souper Bowl of Caring! Neighbor to Neighbor will again be our charity recipient this year. We’ll be collecting can food items and monetary donations on Super Bowl Sunday, February 2nd after our worship service.
More than 20 years ago, the Souper Bowl of Caring began with a simple prayer from a single youth group: “Lord, even as we enjoy the Super Bowl football game, help us be mindful of those without a bowl of soup to eat.” Since that day, more than $90 million has been raised for local charities across the country through Souper Bowl of Caring. It has become a powerful movement that is transforming the time around Super Bowl weekend into the nation’s largest celebration of giving and serving.

We’re taking another field trip to Murry’s Dinner Playhouse on July 13th! We’ll be seeing Southern Crossroads. A joyous, funny and frequently touching show set in the midst of the Great Depression, Southern Crossroads follows a traveling family of singers and musicians who arrive at their new gig finding the doors locked and the theatre out-of-business. Knowing that “the show must go on,” this gifted family of musicians decide to bring entertainment to the locals regardless, treating them to an old-fashioned, high-spirited Southern jamboree with songs like “Mountain Dew,” “I’ll Fly Away,” “Midnight Special,” and “House of the Rising Sun.” Deadline for reservations is June 30th. The cost is $35 per person. We’ll be leaving the church at 5pm and will be returning around 10:30pm.
