Short-Term Mission Trip to Thailand ~ Is God Calling You?

We are planning a Short-Term Mission trip to Northwestern Thailand in support of Austin and Sinte House (missionaries supported by Pender’s Faith Promise giving) from October 16-31.

During the trip, we’ll have the opportunity to provide evangelism, outreach, adult and children’s programs to those living in the Thai-Burma border region, as well as refugees in the Noh Poh Refugee Camp.

For more information, please contact Mark Reese by clicking on this link or attend an information session this Sunday, July 7th after the 11 am service.

From the Pender ReGift Thrift Store: More Gifts, WCFM

25 Jun

Our current special of giving six free children’s books to kids between 3 and 16 has been a wonderful promotion, making kids and their parents very happy, and encouraging collateral purchasing.

This special, and our other current specials ($5 of off $25, BOGO Shorts) will all run out this Saturday, on June 29, 2013. Act by Saturday to get your child his or her deserving fair share of our free books.

Starting in July, and continuing throughout the month, we will be having a huge clothing sale. Any clothing tag marked prior to April, 2013, will only be one dollar!

It’s Not Too Late!

We have such dedicated and talented Sunday School Teachers here at Pender and we would love to give them a break this Summer!

If you can volunteer for at least one Sunday this Summer, please stop by the Sign Up Center in the Narthex on Sunday and pick a date on the sign up sheet.

Teaching our children is a true blessing to all who serve the Lord in this wonderful way!

There are only 10 weeks of Summer Sunday School
3 classes each week
2 adults in each class

This means we have 60 positions to fill for the Summer. After Council meeting Wednesday night, we have 43 openings still available.

Thanks for helping us fill these positions!
