2 Corinthians 5:17 ~ Today’s Bible Verse

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

~ 2 Corinthians 5:17, NIV

Today at Pender UMC ~ January 1, 2017

Please join us this Sunday, January 1, 2017, at our 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 am Worship Services
Title: Starting Off Right
Scripture: 1 Peter 1:13-2:3
We’ll be using Wesley’s Covenant Prayer.

I am no longer my own, but yours.
Put me to what you will, rank me with whom you will;
put me to doing, put me to suffering;
let me be employed for you, or laid aside for you,
exalted for you, or brought low for you;
let me be full,
let me be empty,
let me have all things,
let me have nothing:
I freely and wholeheartedly yield all things
to your pleasure and disposal.
And now, glorious and blessed God,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
you are mine and I am yours. So be it.
And the covenant now made on earth, let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.

Pender’s Vision Statement:

By following Jesus and reaching out to others, we seek God’s transformation of ourselves and our world.

Listen to past sermons by Pastors Kenny Newsome, Dan Elmore and others in the Pender Podcast.
