This year the Pender Men are teaming with our sponsored Boy Scout troop #1530 and combining our mulch sales so that we can help each other’s programs and deliver your mulch to your driveway on Saturday March 5th.
Pender Men sponsors short term mission trips for our parishioners to places like Peru, Thailand, Poland, Paraguay, and Philippi, WV, as well as supporting local missions and vital Pender activities like the recent Men’s Retreat held this past November.
Please visit http://goo.gl/PJWfMN to securely order your mulch, or contact Dave Cacner at dcacner@verizon.net.
Please also consider volunteering to assist in delivering mulch with us on the 5th.
Thanks so much!
