We will welcome the Rev. Lisa Nelson as our guest speaker on Homecoming.  There will be one worship service only, at 10:50 a.m., and the service will be followed by a Philafeast (covered dish).  Bring your favorite dishes and enjoy a special time of fellowship with your church family. 

HOMECOMING 2011: We will celebrate our Scottish heritage on Homecoming, September 18. A colorful, festive occasion is planned for this worship service, asking God’s blessing and protection in a blend of music, hymns and prayers from the Scottish faith tradition. As a part of this traditional celebration we are planning a Kirkin’ O’ The Tartan, which is a procession of family tartans (Banners) led by a bagpiper and a Beadle (carries the Bible). If you would like to participate in the processional, you will need to purchase your clan tartan. Each clan has a distinctive plaid design, and the fabric is called Tartan. (We may be able to borrow some tartans from other churches.) We hope that one person from each family will participate in the procession by proudly carrying your family tartan. If you would like to participate contact Judy Jones cell (704-582-9953) judyjones523@earthlink.net or Becky Griffin (704-545-5766) beckygriffin@bellsouth.net who will help you research your family Tartan. The tartans must be ordered soon in order for them to arrive by September. Tartans will be stored for use from year to year with the hopes of a permanent display in the future. Your family does not need to be an actual founding member of PPC. We want all members to celebrate, and we will help you find your Scottish connection.
