Pender has a very acute shortage of ushers, especially for the 8:15 service. (This will become all the more apparent around Christmas time.)
Please consider committing to offer your help as an usher once a month in November and December for either the 8:15 or 11:00 service.
To volunteer to be an usher please click on this link or make an indication of interest on the Connection Card on Sunday.
