Sermon on Sunday, July 21: God’s Hope for the World
Philippians 2:13
We welcome Rev. Peter Ignatius from India to our pulpit this Sunday, July 21st. He is the Godson of our own Beryl Marin.
Come and hear this international perspective on hope.
“For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.” (Phil. 2:13)

What does it mean to judge someone? Is it necessary? Is it loving?
Do we take stock in our own lives before we look at others or is it vice versa?
Let’s explore if the word judging should be in our vocabulary and if so, how do we live it?
At Pender UMC, Sunday July 7: 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 am. The sermon archives will be available early next week.
“Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.” (Romans 14:19)
