Building Pender UMC for the Future (BFF)

All funds raised will be paid directly to Pender United Methodist Church for Funds will be used for our Building in Faith Capital Campaign.

Order your shirt in grey or mint green here: https://www.booster.com/pender-umc-building-in-faith-shirts

The deadline to place orders is March 14th. We won’t have the shirts in hand until the 30th though, so will miss having them for our Jason’s deli fundraiser.

We need a minimum of 17 shirts for the order to happen.

We offered two colors and two styles (a unisex that goes from youth through adult and a ladies cut). We chose these colors based on recommended colors from the t-shirt designer, since colors we had originally selected would not have highlighted our logo as well once they were printed. And limiting it to two will allow us to better stand out as a group at these events.

Come join us for dinner and fellowship, while at the same time raising funds for the Building in Faith for the Future Capital Campaign!

All you need to do is show up for dinner on this night, let them know you are with Pender UMC and drop your receipt in the Group Raise box! 15% of all such purchases will go directly to the Capital Campaign.

We are not allowed to ask other diners that are not part of our group to participate, so the key to making this is a success it to have lots of our Pender Family in attendance! Plus that always makes it more fun!!!!

Jason’s Deli – 12955 Fair Lakes Shopping Center – Wednesday, March 2nd from 5pm-9pm.

We will get 15% off all the orders for people who say they are with our group and put their receipts in the marked bin.

The only catch is that we need 20 people to RSVP by February 28th or they will cancel our event.

Here is the link to RSVP: http://www.groupraise.com/events/10311

Don’t feel like cooking? Let’s eat out together and show others what a GREAT church family we have here at Pender!

April 5th & May 3rd & July 12th: Baja Fresh (Fairfax Towne Center) – Join us for dinner 4pm-10pm and 15% of all the orders placed during that time frame will be donated to the building campaign

Stay tuned for even more exciting opportunities with other restaurants and events.
