A struggling mother in her rental cottage finds herself charged with the task of cleaning out the rambling Victorian house. She discovers eighty-one carefully decorated boxes. Hidden in the boxes is a story of a lifetime.
"Reading this book gave me hope and has changed me. I have started my own prayer box."

Can You Help?
As you pray about various needs inside the church please consider giving to the Deacon's Fund. This is the outlet in which we help families in times of needs. Our funding is running very low at this time and we ask that you prayerfully consider giving to this fund.
Online Giving
In today’s society many people do not carry cash or use checks to pay their bills, we are in the technological age with many people paying bills, buying items and transacting daily business online. We also have the capability for you to pay your tithes and offerings online as well! All you need to do is visit our website at www.placidlakesbc.com and click on the giving hand in the top right hand corner of the screen. It will then prompt you to enter the amount you’d like to give and the frequency of that giving, you will then proceed to paypal to make the payment. If you have any questions or need any help please contact the office during business hours and we will assist you. Thank you for your giving and support of our church! We love you all!
Wednesday Night Dinner
Come join us on Wednesday evenings at 5:15 p.m. for a good meal of food and fellowship!
Doors will be opened at 5:00 p.m. Please do not arrive before 5:00 p.m., this allows for kitchen staff to prepare. Dinner will be served at 5:15 p.m. Please allow for all to get a plate of food before making any to-go plates. Kitchen staff will announce when it is ok for to-go and left-over plates to be made.
Adults and youth are served in the New Fellowship Hall. Children/TeamKIDs are served in the Old Fellowship Hall.
Thank you for your understanding!
Food Pantry
We have a food pantry located here at PLBC, we are partnered with Feeding Tampa Bay and Heartland Food Bank to provide for the needs of the hungry here in our community. The food pantry is open Tuesday from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m.; anyone that is experiencing a need or unexpected emergency may come to the food pantry during these hours. We are blessed to be able to help people in need and our goal is to assist them during their time of need and see them progress in the future without our assistance. If you or anyone you know is need of assistance please send them to the food pantry or contact the church office at 863-465-5126 for more information.
