  2. History • 2 brothers-in-law got together and wanted to start a non-denominational Church • After 3 years of prayer, PC3 was launched on October 24, 1999 • With no advertising, 85 people showed up for the first service • Since then, PC3 has grown to be one of the largest Churches in Wilmington • MISSION: “To reach people and help them walk with God”

  3. Counseling Ministry • Purpose: “To help others meet the challenges of life in a way that will please and honor the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe that God, through revelation in the Bible, has provided His people with thorough guidance and instruction for faith and life.” • For this reason, all who seek help at PC3 do so free of charge

  4. Population Served • Men, women, couples, children, and families all enter into counseling • Women outnumber men in counseling • Premarital counseling is a huge part of their ministry • People suffering from addictions, eating disorders, abuse, or any life-hindering problem • In 2006, 226 people were served by 15 counselors (only 3 “on-staff”, the others are trained volunteers)

  5. What did I do? • Treasure Island • Small Groups • Biblical training • Once a month • Individual homework then group discussion of a Theology topic and 2 counseling topics • Observation of individual sessions • Premarital Counseling • My fiancée and I are learning our Biblical roles as husband and wife, communication skills, and discuss topics that will come up in our marriage • Education of biblical vs. secular views of eating disorders • Referrals for women with eating disorders • Consent forms • Square One • Marriage seminar

  6. Treasure Island • I am a Small Group Leader for 1st grade girls • Every Sunday I teach them about a virtue (ex: Honesty) and how it is demonstrated in the Bible • Fun, age-appropriate activities • Worship!

  7. Small Groups • I am involved in a Thursday night Small Group • I also lead a Monday night Small Group • All are college-age women • Reading different books and discussing them as a group • Prayer • Accountability • My Small Group girls have become my best friends because we “walk through life together” • Small Groups are the “heart” of the Church

  8. Applicability • This practicum has taught me many things, especially about myself and what I want to do with my life • I love everything about my practicum, especially that they invest in the person, not just the hour session • Domestic violence example • Because of this experience, my career goal is to open a Christian Retreat for young women suffering from eating disorders, unplanned pregnancy, or abuse victims where they can come and learn about Christ and their identity in Him

  9. Recommendation • ABSOLUTELY! • This would be a great place for someone who wants to pursue God and do His work by investing in and helping people walk through life
