feeding 10-5-14
We just got home from feeding tonight and would like to let you all know we are now feeding 50 people.
Tonight was so good. One of the guys in the park was telling us about how the family's in the park don't only eat 3 meals a week, and he is so thankful for what we are doing.
Judy the lady that run's the park said to me, that the kids call us the caterers, and ask if we are coming all the time. She tells them not today but Sunday. This makes my day.
Our need is getting bigger than we first thought. God is showing us his heart for his kids.
If you would like to help in any way please let us know.

Turning 24 into 33
Tonight went well for us, we went with 24 plates and it turned into
feeding 33. We had to come home and make 9 more plates and go back.
Next week we will be starting with 34 plates. Please be praying for us and
what God would be having us do there.
At the home of one of the family's, the kids came running out to us so
excited for dinner. (Made my day.)

We need your help. We are starting a feeding ministry in Carolina Beach. Today Ron and I want by the office of a camp ground and talked to the lady on duty. We found out that there is a need of school supplies for some of the children for tomorrow, with previous donations PFH has received, we will be able to supply part of that need immediately. We would like to do more, would anyone like to help them with some other things for school? We are planing on starting the feeding ministry on September 7, 2014 at 7:00 pm. If you would like to be apart of this or help in any way please let me know. We are pursuing that which we are passionate about and finding our purpose in doing so. Living the life we love, Loving the life we live. Pastors Ron and Karen

Opportunity God has giving us .
Greetings,
Karen, Travis and I would like to start by saying how thankful we are for the opportunity God has giving us and for the people that he has brought into our lives. We absolutely LOVE doing what we are doing here in Wilmimgton. We continue to pray for God's guidance for our lives for 2013.
2012 has been an amazing year of growth for us. The most amazing growth came when we were ordained on July 17th. In August our housing was increased from an interior unit to an end unit with more square footage and better views along with a peace that this home will be our home for many years.
On December 20th we met with a lawyer and started the filing procedures for our own 501c:3 non profit status. The filing of this paperwork will birth the ministry of "Pinney's From Heaven".
Pinney's From Heaven vision and goals will remain the same. That vision is to be missionary's to Wilmington and serving the needy there. We continue to serve with First Fruit Ministries.
We need to raise the process and filing fees which total $1300.00.
If you would like to sow into the birthing of Pinney's From Heaven, please make checks out to Pinney's From Heaven and send to 1200 Saint Joseph Street Unit 54, Carolina Beach NC 28428

The year 2010 in Review
Pinney 2011 Update - The year 2010 in Review
Hello friends and family,
2010 started with more hope and encouragement than any other year I can remember. It started with much excitement and promises for us to have a banner year. By early March Pinney Construction had enough signed contracts to carry us busily through July. We took the opportunities before us in the busyness of the business and withdrew from most of the involvement we had with our home church of Morningstar. It appeared we were in a new season after having been involved with Morningstar for just under 10 years. By the end of May, as 3 of our large projects came to a close, we found ourselves in need of rest. The timing was perfect, because we had previously scheduled 8 days in Hilton Head Island for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. It took the first 3 days to find the peace that was missing in our lives from being so busy. The remainder of the time in Hilton Head was very rewarding and very enjoyable. We took what we had learned about being to busy, and spent most of the remaining weekends during the summer months traveling and making ourselves have fun. In September as many of you know we made a decision to give up our construction business and get involved with a Ministry in Wilmington NC feeding the homeless and widows there. During the first few months here, we were guests in other's homes. Once Travis and the 2 dogs moved at the end of November, we began looking for a home to rent. We were able to find a fully furnished vacation home in Carolina Beach and moved in 2 days before Christmas. We are so grateful to have our own home again. We were able to rent this home until the end of April, when the vacation season starts.
Karen, Travis, and I would like to share a little about the time we have spent here so far.
Karen: I’m loving my time here at First Fruit Ministry, getting to know all the people that are coming through the pantry line each week. I like to see what God is doing on a weekly basis.
I enjoy seeing God showing up when we need something. We ask for something and the next day the things that we asked for show up. One of the guys asked for Rice-Krispies treats, we had everything to make them accept for marshmallows, so we asked for the marshmallows and they showed up. This just shows how much the Lord likes to give things to us. The relationships that we are building with everyone here, makes it feel like we have been here all our lives.
Travis: As October ended, many things in my own life did not feel like they had months prior. It was time for me to leave Charlotte NC. I had no idea at what I needed to do or even what I wanted to do. For Thanksgiving I went to Wilmington NC to see my parents. While I was there, I knew that this is where I need to move to. The Sunday after Thanksgiving, I went to Sunday night church in Charlotte and on the way there I felt thankful for my new direction in life, even though it was not what I had wanted to do.
The following Monday I moved to Wilmington. I started out helping at First Fruit's food pantry and selling Christmas trees at there tree lot. For the month of December, that's what I have been doing. One weekend during the month, I went back to Charlotte. On the way into town something didn't feel the same to me. I could tell it was not where I needed to be anymore. I still don't know why I felt that way.
I don’t have a clue at what is going to happen next month or even this month. What I do know is God is opening doors up for me to do what ever He wants me to do.
For now I'll be at First Fruit helping out, feeding the poor and helping those in need.
Ron: Since October I have spent time at the ministries pumpkin and Christmas tree lots volunteering for there annual fund raiser's. I have enjoyed many hours getting to know the founder of First Fruit Ministries, Rick Stoker and learning about the vision they are fulfilling here in Wilmington. I really enjoy the time I get to spend in the food pantry area prepping for and passing out food three times a week. I love the time I get to spend with the fellow volunteers and those we are serving. I have the opportunity of a lifetime with each person I come in contact with. I continue to seek God as to all he has planned for us here and that we would fulfill all he has called us to do. I have encountered many opportunities to see how God really loves us helping to take care of the poor and hurting.
