SING ‘N CELEBRATE ~ JANUARY 12 AT 7:30 PM: A one-time change of date and time due to a need to coordinate with FACETS and our guests’ preparation for the evening. Please plan to attend and welcome our guests to our church.
Also, we need to extend a big Pender Welcome to our SNC’s new Worship Leader, Diane Wilhite, and our new praise band, JC Reigns!
The theme for this evening of worship will be forgiveness with some reminders of how we can forgive the way our Father forgives us.

Upcoming January Sermon Series
Please join us in worship for our upcoming sermon series beginning in January 2014:
WHO AM I? – The question that all of us struggle with. Are we defined by what we do? The roles we play? The people we associate with? Who am I?
January 5 – Why We’re Here (John 1:1-18)
Why are we here? What is our purpose? Jesus said, “We are light.” In the midst of the darkness we are light for the world. Look around you. It is easy to see the darkness. How can we make a difference?
January 12 – Who We Are (Mark 1:9-13)
We are God’s children in whom He is well pleased. That affirmation should fill and guide our lives throughout the year. Spoken at Jesus’ baptism they are God’s affirmation for us.
January 19 – What We Do (I Corinthians 12:12-27)
We are the body of Christ! Christ’s hands and feet in the world is our work. Let’s see how we do that as we Know God, Love God and Others, Grow in God, Share God and Serve God.
January 26 – What We Say (John 1:35-51)
We are the body of Christ! Christ’s hands and feet in the world is our work. Let’s see how we do that as we Know God, Love God and Others, Grow in God, Share God and Serve God.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
