Tomorrow at Pender

https://i0.wp.com/www.penderumc.org/uploads/back-to-church.jpeg

We will have breakfast snacks provided during the 8:15 and 9:30 worship services, with a full blown, “old fashioned” Methodist pot luck after the 11:00 service.

Our ministry areas and cluster leads will be on hand to answer questions and greet our guests. It is our hope you will join us, with a friend, to make a difference on Back To Church Sunday on September 8th!

Come and invite a friend for a spectacular day of food, fellowship, new faces and ministry opportunities!

September 8, 2013 Sermon: What’s Missing in CH__CH?

The scripture will be Mark 1:29-31. “As soon as they left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew. Simon’s mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they immediately told Jesus about her. So he went to her, took her hand and helped her up. The fever left her and she began to wait on them.”

Sing ‘n Celebrate ~ Sept. 8th at 7:00 pm

06 Sep

We know that salvation is a process that is done, that’s secure, that no one can take away from us. The psalmist David tells us that those who have been redeemed will say so! If we’re not saying so, perhaps we’ve forgotten what it is like to be redeemed.

Hopefully, you have made plans to join us to hear Kay Creel and Mike Williams share how they have viewed being redeemed.
