News from the Church Office
The Church Office will be closed from December. 25th through January 1st so that our Pastors and the Staff can enjoy time with their families and can get some much needed rest after the hectic season.
Please note: There will be no weekly email (“This Week at Pender”) sent out the week after Christmas and the week after New Years. The next Weekly Email will be sent out on January 7th.
If you have receipts that you need reimbursed by the Church, please send in your reimbursement request by year end.
Our Christmas Offering
Our Christmas offering this year will go to support 2 important ministries:
(1) Up to $4,000 will go to cover expenses of the Hypothermia Center in January.
(2) The remainder will go to Holyland 4 Jesus – An outreach in Israel among Muslim people that establishes churches of new disciples of Christ. Outreach is done through music and the gifts of milk and rice to individual families. The gospel is shared with each gift.
