Music Transportation Ministry?
Pender’s Music Ministry is considering starting a transportation ministry to help those families who are unable to get their children to the church on Thursday afternoons for choir and bell rehearsals. Before we can do that, however, we need to know how much interest there would be in starting this ministry.
If this Music Transportation Ministry would help your family, please contact Theresa Carpenter here.
Here are some of our upcoming events at Pender UMC.
Our address is 12401 Alder Woods Drive, Fairfax, VA 22033• 703.278.8023
