More from the Pender ReGift Thrift Store…
Uh, if you don’t know, Terry Havens is our associate pastor’s wife, so when we’re talking about going wild, it ain’t That Wild. On the other hand, if you saw the earring and necklace boards that she has created and filled with her handiwork, you would understand that she has certainly outdone herself this time!
Like Saundra Sandrock, Terry has volunteered her time, talent, and materials to us for free, to benefit our mission and the thrift store. She has suggested more-than-reasonable prices, with necklaces for $5 and $6 and earrings going for $2 and $3 a pair.
You better come quick! Terry’s ideas on display and marketing have already been effective. I wasn’t even able to take pictures before holes developed in the board by pieces being sold.
Thank you, Terry!

From the Sermon Series: Genuine Love:
Pastor Kenny’s sermon from the Traditional Service
Rev. Kevin Haven’s sermon from the Common Ground Service.
Living and Sacrifice don’t go together. However, that is exactly what it takes to live the Good News of Jesus in our lives. Let’s learn how we can die to live and what we can do when we are yielded to Christ.
The Scripture was Romans 12:1-2

- A HUGE thank you to everyone who made the boutique and flea market a huge success!Whether you did it by volunteering as a cashier, helping with set up, donating items, inviting others to shop or did some shopping yourself, because of your efforts, the boutique alone brought in over $8,000 that will go toward the UMW budget to support missions, both inside and outside the church as well as other Pender activities! In addition, the flea market brought in over $5,000 for the UMM budget and also as an outreach opportunity as we financially supported several men from West Virginia with jobs for the week. God is Great!
- Rev Kev and JC Reigns would like to thank ALL of the children and adults who volunteered to help make An Evening to Remember such an enjoyable and memorable event. 5 bus loads of residents from 5 different nursing homes in the area attended and they all had an amazing time singing, clapping, laughing and dancing.
- BIG THANK YOU from Carol Wilson to all who contributed their time and efforts to help make the Mother-Daughter Tea a success!! The UMW also wants to express our appreciation for the music by JC Reigns which added so much!
