“We want people to know that Ponca City Church and First Lutheran Church and the majority of Ponca City churches are a community group, made up of your friends and neighbors who love food and love this city. We at PCC don’t say this simply as a slogan, it is a heart position that we’ve been given by the Lord!” said Pastor Michael Cramer of Ponca City Church.

“We see that our community has great needs, spiritually, yes of course, but undeniable physical needs as well,” added Pastor Cramer.

In the great words of Rev. Edward Everett Hale, “I am only one, but I am one. I can’t do everything, but I can do something. The something I ought to do, I can do. And by the Grace of God, I will.”

“This Thanksgiving we can help to feed and give cheer to those in need, and so we will. We know that the hope of Christ is best revealed by the testimony, the lives and actions of His children. So we strive to that end, that we may shed that light to others by being the hands and feet of Christ to our city,” added Pastor Cramer of PCC.
