Friday, July 10 ~ See What Our Children have Done!

09 Jul

At this year’s VBS, kids embarked on an icy expedition where they overcame obstacles with God’s awesome power. Kids were anchored in rock-solid Bible truths that will guide them through life’s challenges.

In addition, each day kids rotated through music, recreation, snack, craft, storytelling and even some “laboratory” time!

The VBS Final Program will be Friday, June 10 at 11 am.

At Pender’s Music Camp, rising second through sixth graders sing in choir, play Orff instruments, ring handbells, experiment with rhythm in a percussion class, learn to read music, and make crafts.

Friday afternoon traditionally concludes with musical performances which our campers perform for friends and family!

The Music Camp Final Program will be Friday, July 10 at 3:00 pm.

Curious about the Virginia Conference last month?

06 Jul

Watch this video to experience the 233rd Virginia Annual Conference held June 19-21 in the Berglund Center in Roanoke. Attendees elected 2016 General and Jurisdictional Conference delegates and voted to petition General Conference to remove the “incompatibility” statement from the Book of Discipline. You can also view highlights of the memorial service, ordination, mission worship service, Imagine No Malaria report, “fixing” of clergy appointments and more.

Pastor Dan was definitely there!

From Chuck Knows Church: An Annual Conference is a regional body that governs much of the life of the “Connectional Church.” Sound confusing? We agree. Chuck will try to make sense of “Annual Conferences” when he makes a conference call.
