Today at Pender UMC ~ August 23, 2015
Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, August 23rd, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services.
Pastor Dan will be preaching at all 3 services for the next 2 weeks on the Sermon Series: In His House.
This Sunday’s sermon is entitled “Embrace Your Place” (1 Corinthians 12:12-27)
When we find the place we’re meant to be, we can discover more about ourselves than we thought possible. In this two-part series, we’ll learn that the search for purpose can lead you to some unexpected places. In week one, learn to embrace the moment in time God has placed you in: you’re there for a reason. And in week two, we’ll explore how God uses highly unlikely people in highly unlikely ways to bring about highly unlikely results, when we’re just obedient.
