Legoh Family Fire

On Sunday, February 25, the Legoh family tragically lost their home to a devastating fire. Thankfully, there were no injuries for which we praise the Lord. Lailane has been an Administrative Assistant here at Pioneer for many years, and her husband, Darell, works in the School of Business at Andrews University. Their two sons, Hanan and Eli, are both students at Ruth Murdoch Elementary School. Many have expressed their desire to assist the family in some way. The link below has items that the family currently needs. 

Update #11 Renovate 2.0

The fundraising is almost completed! The Pioneer Memorial Church members and community have demonstrated their commitment to “Love On The Move”. The sacrificial giving for this improvement is inspiring to those who are using the elevator (and the other improvements) and to the Pastoral staff and Stewardship Committee. There is only $66,984 to raise! Thank you so much! Let us press forward to complete Renovate 2.0!

Pioneer’s fellowship dinner ministry is alive and well. There are currently 11 teams sharing the responsibility of hosting the dinners throughout the year. However, the ministry needs more teams as well as individuals who are willing to join the current teams. If you are a part of a small group or Sabbath School class that is not currently active in this important ministry, please consider becoming involved. Current teams serve from two to four times a year. If you would like to join a currently active team, let us know. For more information, or to volunteer, text 269-281-2345, and send the word "FELLOWSHIP". You will be able to enter your contact information there, and we will be in contact with you.

Offering for March 2, 2024

Pioneer Operating Budget

When Joshua began leading the Israelites, there was likely a lot of uncertainty around how things would go. Moses had spent years leading the children of God through the wilderness and through many miraculous events! In Joshua 1, we can see that God calls Joshua to be both “strong and courageous” (Joshua 1:6, NIV) in a transition of leadership that surely may have felt overwhelming to Joshua at times.
