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 email Carolyn Fink or 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!
Today’s Bible Verse
“If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”” –Luke 11:13

Sunday, June 2, our children will present their latest musical, The Bible Tells Me So Show. This lively show finds teams competing in a game show format to test their knowledge of the promises in God’s Word.
Come and experience a musical game show that explores the many promises that God has given to us and how faithful he is to all those promises.
The musical will be performed at the 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 am services.
Mother’s Day is today, and we hope you’ll take some time this weekend to pay respects to your mother–or if that isn’t possible, to somebody in your life with who embodies the grace and wisdom we associate with godly mothers.
With the holiday in mind, we present several resources from Bible Gateway for mothers:
What’s a mom’s greatest responsibility?
A reflection from the Mom’s Devotional Bible challenges mothers to pass on to your children your faith in Jesus.
Additional Scripture Readings: Deuteronomy 6:4–9; 1 Peter 3:15
Who introduced you to Jesus?
Perhaps it was a college roommate. Or your husband. Or a friend from a local women’s group. Maybe it was a minister or a youth group leader. And maybe, just maybe, it was your grandmother or even your mom.
What another did for you, God is asking you to do for your children: Pass along your faith in Jesus. How?
Someone introduced you to Jesus. It’s now time for you, Mom, to pass it on to your children.
