Music Transportation Ministry?
Pender’s Music Ministry is considering starting a transportation ministry to help those families who are unable to get their children to the church on Thursday afternoons for choir and bell rehearsals. Before we can do that, however, we need to know how much interest there would be in starting this ministry.
If this Music Transportation Ministry would help your family, please contact Theresa Carpenter here.
To avoid meeting during Labor Day Weekend, we will celebrate the testimonies of two members of the laity the evening of Sept. 8th at our Sing ‘n Celebrate Worship Service.
There is no better time than now to reserve this date for hearing their personal stories related to the only decisions that really matter – where they will spend eternity.
Fun With Music, Playing, and Fellowship is a new program beginning September 6th in the Cornerstone Room, 215 & 217.
This program is for children ages 0 to 5 and their parent from l0 to 11:30am, Fridays. The cost is $40.00 for 12 weeks to cover the food and supplies.
There will be singing, playing and fellowship. Snacks will be served to the children. The parent will join in the music and fellowship with the other parents. Refreshments will be served to the parents.

New Sermon Series ~ Campmeeting – LOST
We will return to a part of our heritage as Methodists, the Campmeeting. It will be a time to sing the old hymns, enjoy the upbeat worship and hear the Gospel preached that will help those who are lost and wandering in our community.
Sermon on Sunday, August 4th: LOST Sheep – Luke 15:1-7
The Lord is my Good Shepherd (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
The parable of the Lost Sheep is one of the most famous in stained glass. But the story is about real issues and real difficulties in life. All of us feel LOST at some point. When we simply wander off and get lost it is all the worse.
Let’s see if the lost can be found this Sunday.
“I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. (Luke 15:7)
