Time to Update the Church Calendar

calendar

 

It’s time to update the church calendar with all activities for the 2016 – 2017 school year!

Our calendar shows up in many places – our website, the Church Life app, screens in the church lobbies & Sunday bulletins.

Many people rely on it; therefore it’s important that it be comprehensive, up to date and correct.

Activities include all church functions – whether they occur at the church or offsite.

Meetings, Bible studies, small groups, rehearsals, etc.

Calendar activities are for one year only & have to be re-submitted annually.

By getting your activity on the calendar, you are assured that – if it occurs at Pender- it will get a room assignment!

Click on this link for the RESOURCE REQUEST FORM. Fill it out and drop it off in the church office or scan it and send it by email to church.calendar@penderumc.org.

If you have any questions, call the church office at (703) 278-8023.

(If you submitted your activity in January for the 2016 calendar year, this does not apply to you. You will need to re-submit in January 2017)

Disciple Fast Track

disciple-fast-track

 

For nearly thirty years, the original Disciple Bible Study has helped millions of people read through the Bible and grow their faith through a 34-week class. 

The new Disciple Fast Track study leads groups through the Bible in 24 weeks-12 on the Old Testament and 12 on the New Testament. Study manuals and videos give participants tools to absorb and retain what they learn about the Bible. 

Our church is now forming a Disciple Fast Track group to go through the study together. Pastor Dan will be leading. We will meet Wednesday evenings, 7:00pm.

 

Main Features of Disciple Fast Track:

· Classes meet for a total of 24 weeks

– 12 Weeks Old Testament (August 31 – November 16)

– 12 Weeks New Testament (January 4 – March 22 +/- for inclement weather)

· Each group session lasts 75 minutes

·Daily scripture & workbook readings.

· 24 weekly illustrated whiteboard review videos
