Singles 1 Life Group at PCBC!Our Singles Life Group is a community of singles in their 30's and 40's committed to "Doing Life Together" through loving each other, learning God's Word, and making Christ known through serving. Singles 1 Life Group meets each Sunday from 9:15 to 10:30 a.m. in Room C-128. (Stop by any of the welcome desks near the front entrances and they'll be happy to show you the way.) This time is spent learning God's word, praying for each other, and encouraging each other in our daily lives. We all come from different backgrounds with a wide variety of knowledge of God's word from those who have been Christians for many years to those seeking to learn more about God and His word. "Doing Life Together" means no one is meant to live solely on their own without help, love or encouragement from other believers. We serve each other in many ways from praying for each other, helping each other financially, raking someone's leaves or bringing them meals when sick or incapacitated. We also get together for fun and fellowship through lunch after church each Sunday, playing Trivia at a local restaurant, game and movie nights just to name a few. Singles 1 is also a serving class involved in many ministries in the church as well as outside the church. Our members put their faith into serving in the church choir, orchestra, mission trips/conferences, church committees, Happy Hearts respite care program, children's ministry, greeters, and Operation Christmas child just to name a few. Outside of PCBC we serve by volunteering at Norcross Cooperative Ministry, reaching out to the homeless in Atlanta, health fairs, apartment ministry, as well as participating in other Single Outreach programs in the area. If you are looking for a group of Singles who love to learn and put into practice God's word, encourage each other and serve others all while having fun and "Doing Life Together", then please join us. For more information on Singles 1, please contact one of the following: Looking for more information, contact:Singles 1 Life Group leader, Cheryl McNair at 770.729.1454, or Shay Tanner on the church staff at 770-582-2479Click Here to contact us We look forward to meeting you! Young Singles at PCBC!Our Young Singles Life Group is a community of singles in their 20s and early 30s committed to loving each other, learning God’s Word, and making Christ known. The Young Singles group meets each Sunday from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. in Room C-110 . (Stop by any of the welcome desks near the front entrances and they’ll be happy to show you the way.) These gatherings are generally devoted to talking about the rest of the week’s activities, and to Bible study.Through the week, we get together regularly for fun, prayer and ministry – everything from Snow Mountain, lunch after church on Sundays or wings on a Thursday night, to helping feed the homeless and sharing our faith, to weekly gatherings for prayer. We’re intentional about seeking serious answers to life’s hardest questions and problems from the Bible, and then helping each other live out those answers every day. If you’re a long-time Christian looking for a church home to plug into, a new Christian looking to learn more about the Bible, or just hungry to find answers to your spiritual questions, give us a try. Visitors are welcome anytime. No judgments, no expectations, just Jesus. What’s the best way to find out more about the Young Singles at PCBC?You can call the Young Singles Life Group leaders, Eric and Karen Allen, at 770-449-1622, or call Shay Tanner on the church staff, 770-582-2479, or just show up on Sunday morning. Do I have to dress up?You can dress however you like. Our young singles wear anything from jeans and t-shirts to dresses. I don’t know much about the Bible. Will that be awkward?Actually, that’s a major reason for our Sunday morning gatherings – to learn. So if you don’t know anything, you’ll fit right in. What if I don’t know anybody?With this group, that figures to be a problem for about 20 seconds. How can I find out what upcoming activities the Young Singles have planned?In the future, we plan to have a Young Singles activities calendar on this website. For now, the best way would be to call the phone numbers above, or . . . just show up. I’d really like to get to know some young singles who are committed to knowing God and spiritual matters, but I’m not comfortable going to church. Is there another way?Call the numbers above and we’ll hook you up with our next out-of-church activity. That way you can meet us, see what we’re about, and then decide whether you’d like to attend on a Sunday morning. end faq

Everywhere you look there is something worthy of recording; nature, people, places and things. Let’s get together this summer and find those things and learn more about each other and photography. I have a passion to see things the way that God sees them and I am learning daily about Him, the world, and how to use my camera to glorify him. We can find locations nearby and venture further afield to explore the beauty just waiting for us. We can learn from each other, practice different aspects of photography and grow twice a month or more often if the passion is there. I am available Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, so let’s put our heads together and come up with a calendar and locations that works for all of us. Feel free to bring friends to join us. Possible locations: Norcross City Parks, Goat Farm, Yellow River Game, Local River Parks, Capital Area, Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Grant Park, Zoo Atlanta, Gibbs Garden, Little 5 Points, Pine Mtn Safari, Sunflower Farm and/or Norcross Houses/Bldgs. Please note that you do not have to have a fancy camera to have fun and learn. What we will be learning applies to all cameras, it is about how we see (light & shadows) and telling a story/message (composition) with our photos…and Most importantly: Having Fun together!
