Today at Pender UMC ~ October 18, 2015

disciples-path

 

Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, October 18th, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services.

Pastor Dan will continue our sermon series based on our church-wide study, “A Disciple’s Path,” and will be preaching at all 3 services on “The Story in Your Own Words” (John 1:35-49)

For many people, the term evangelism has a bad reputation because of the way it has been abused by mean-spirited preachers and manipulative politicians. Others are intimidated by the idea of sharing their faith. Some suggest that faith in Christ is a private affair, not to be shared with others. In spite of our hesitations, the New Testament is clear that we are called to share with others the good news of what God has done in Christ. How do we do that? Join us and find out.

disciples-path

 

Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, October 11th, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services.

Pastor Kenny & Pastor Dan will continue our sermon series based on our church-wide study, “A Disciple’s Path” and will be preaching on “The Way of Service” (Ephesians 4:1-16).

Servanthood — the practice by which the love of God becomes a tangible reality in our lives and through which we become active participants in God’s transformation of the world. Each of us has a role in the body of Christ, the church. Each of us has been called and gifted. We’ll explore how God has gifted you, where your heart has been broken, and where you are called to serve.

Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, September 13th, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services, as we kick-off our church-wide study, “A Disciple’s Path.”

    Youth in Mission

    You won’t want to miss hearing from two of our Pender youth who have already discovered the joy of serving — Kayla Moxley in Philippi and Katelyn Barone in Peru for the first time. When God sends us to serve, God also sends us blessings. Since we are in the hiring process for our new band, they won’t be with us for this SNC. However, Peter and Rachel Kotiah have graciously agreed to provide our praise music for this time of worship.

Today at Pender UMC

confession-feature

 

Please join us for a wonderful time of worship this Sunday, September 6th, at our 8:15, 9:30 & 11:00 worship services.

This Sunday, Bishop Cho has asked us to join with all of the United Methodist Churches and the African Methodist Episcopal Church denomination in observing a“Day of Confession, Repentance, Prayer & Commitment to End Racism.”

Pastor Kenny will be preaching at our 8:15 and 11:00 services and his sermon title for Sunday is “A Reminder from Ferguson.”

Pastor Dan will be preaching at our 9:30 Contemporary service and his sermon title for Sunday is “Jesus the Racist?” (Mark 7:24-30)

Events around our country in recent months and years prove that racism is still alive and well in America. “Yeah, but, I’m not racist,” we might say. And we would surely never call Jesus a racist, would we? What happens when Jesus is confronted by a person of a different race? What happens when the same might occur for us? Exploring these questions is a great first step. Join us on the journey.
