The Sailor’s Bible ~ Sunday at Pender UMC!
June 7 – The Children’s Musical, The Sailor’s Bible, will be presented by the Asbury and Wesley Choirs of Pender UMC.
This new children’s musical includes three Bible stories: Noah and the Great Flood, Jonah and the Great Fish, and Paul’s Shipwreck. Each story features the ocean as a symbol for the chaos of life and shows how only the power of God is greater than the natural forces of wind and wave.
It’s all done with a childlike playfulness full of humor and songs rich with catchy melodies.
Sunday, May 31 at Pender UMC
Please join us this Sunday, May 31, in worship at the 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 Services.
Sermon Series: STORIES
May 31 – Confirmation – Our Story To Tell – John 9:13-38
The Blind man couldn’t explain all the details of what Jesus had done or how he had done it. But he did know this, “I once was blind but now I can see.” The stories we have to tell do not have to be elaborate or involved but simple tell what I know to be true because this is my experience with Jesus. What is story you have to tell?
