Pennfield Presbyterian Church

The power of solitude

Carving out some quiet time each day is a time-honored spiritual practice to be fully present to God and calm the spirit.

Landscaping fundraiser success

When Pennfield Presbyterian Church in Battle Creek, Michigan, wanted to re-landscape its flowerbeds and memorial garden in 2019, the Rev. Annemarie S. Kidder knew it would “take money.” The church sits on 5 acres of hillside and has expansive 20-foot-wide flowerbeds. A garden show was created as a fundraiser, and with several garden lovers in the congregation, the show expanded to include walks through those members’ beautiful gardens, Kidder said.
