Today at Pender UMC ~ October 11, 2015

Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, October 11th, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services.

Pastor Kenny & Pastor Dan will continue our sermon series based on our church-wide study, “A Disciple’s Path” and will be preaching on “The Way of Service” (Ephesians 4:1-16).

Servanthood — the practice by which the love of God becomes a tangible reality in our lives and through which we become active participants in God’s transformation of the world. Each of us has a role in the body of Christ, the church. Each of us has been called and gifted. We’ll explore how God has gifted you, where your heart has been broken, and where you are called to serve.

Today at Pender UMC ~ October 4, 2015

04 Oct

Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, October 4th, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services.

Pastor Kenny will be preaching at all three services this Sunday and will continue our sermon series based on our church-wide study, “A Disciple’s Path” and will be preaching on Money Matters (1 Timothy 6:17-19)

How do you feel about money? John Wesley was convinced that there is a direct connection between our discipleship and the use of our financial resources. He called money “an excellent gift of God” and was clear that the “love of money,” not money itself, is the “root of all evil.” Whether we have much or very little of it, how do we use this gift of God as followers of Jesus? That’s what we’ll be talking about this week.

PLEASE NOTE: Our 9:30 Common Ground Service will be held in the Sanctuary this Sunday, October 4th.

Register now for The Art of Marriage

16 Sep

Friday Evening October 10 from 7-9 and Oct 11 from 9-4:30 – The Art of Marriage

Pender United Methodist Church

When you were standing at the altar reciting your marriage vows, did you have any idea that marriage would be so complex? It probably didn’t take you long to understand that your spouse is not as much like you as you thought. But figuring them out is more than just an equation. Marriage is more than a science; it’s an art. And like any art form, requires an investment of time, focused study and the right tools. If you need to soften some of the edges in your relationship, or want to brighten the landscape of your marriage, The Art of Marriage is for you. This 6-session marriage event allows you to experience God’s design for marriage from expert teachers and humorous vignettes. You’ll graduate in a few hours better educated about your marriage, your spouse and yourself. Block out time in your schedule to attend The Art of Marriage.

Whether planning to get married, newlywed, or just need a tune up, take the Art of Marriage challenge at Pender Church on October 10 and 11 and take a bold step in preserving your legacy to your children and grandchildren. Your marriage is your most important legacy; isn’t it worth $45 and 10 hours of your time to see how you can make it last for generations to come? We will even cover lunch and child care if you need it!

Registration: Please register only once per couple. To avoid being charged twice, choose only one name as the “Attendee”. There will be an opportunity later to add your spouse’s name.

Register online (one registration per couple) through My Pender Page > My Overview > Available Registrations or here.

If you have children you would like to sign up for free child care during the event, please indicate their names and ages on the registration form. Parents must pack and bring snacks and lunch for kids; drinks will be provided for kids.
