In John 12:26, Jesus says that “the Father will honor anyone who serves me.”
Jesus’ message is for everyone – no matter what their social, cultural or racial differences.
Jenny Reyes will be our guest speaker. She and her husband, Ben, have been faithfully serving their Lord since 1989 in Brazil and Paraguay. Besides working with Ben in developing training that will equip Latin Americans for cross-cultural ministry, Jenny also works in her homeland, Brazil, in discipleship — leading Bible study seminars and teaching about church planting.
Please plan to join us, so that we can show our appreciation for her service.

Wednesday April 23rd:
- Of note, guest speaker will be Mr. Hameed Afzali who spent 7 years as a top level interpreter for the US and coalition forces in Afghanistan. His experiences will provide a very different perspective regarding the war in Afghanistan vs. what we see on the news. Recently, Hameed and his family were identified as supporters of the coalition by the Taliban who threatened to kill all of them. Due to this high risk situation, he and his family were rapidly extricated by the State Department to the US under a special visa program. Currently, he is living in Silver Spring, MD with his wife and two children. Having arrived in the US with very little support, the NVMMO church coalition, of which Pender is a member, has been supporting Hameed and his family start their new life in America. We think you will find his story highly interesting.
