Focus your telescopes! Galactic Starveyors reignites children’s sense of discovery and exploration as they marvel at the wonders of the starry sky. Most of all, they gaze toward the God who created the universe and everything in it learning that He wants to have a personal relationship with them! Come on into the clubhouse and show kids that God is over the moon in love with them! Kids will rotate through music, recreation, snack, crafts and storytelling!
For ages 3 years (potty trained) through 6th grade.
Adults and 7th through 12th graders are welcome to volunteer.
The theme for this summer’s Pender UMC music camp will be “Star Quest.” We will be exploring music that expresses the goodness of God’s creation, and tells of the truth of His word in the Bible. Children will be rotating through handbell, Orff, drumming and craft classes. In addition to these “out-of-this-world” classes, we will be preparing and presenting excerpts from the musical “Star Quest – The Search for the Stolen Scriptures.” Join us this year as we blast off to fun and song!
For ages rising 2nd grade – rising 6th grade. Registration is open now.
We are also seeking teens and adults who would like to be a part of our staff.

Our Pastors continue the sermon series: “We Believe.”
Pastor Dan will be preaching at all 3 Worship Services on “Forgiveness of Sin.” (Luke 7:36-50)
“Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven-for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.”And he said to her,”Your sins are forgiven.”Then those who were at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?”And he said to the woman,”Your faith has saved you; go in peace.” (Luke 7:47-50)
