Pender’s Annual Mission Conference ~ April 12-14th

The 26th annual Missions Conference weekend is Friday, April 12th to Sunday, April 14th. We will have activities for the whole family to enjoy. Including two themed pot luck suppers of South American and Asian/Indian Food, South American Dance Demonstrations, as well as, missionary speakers and wonderful music. A full agenda is available by clicking on this LINK.

Thank you for your support of the Faith Promise Missions Budget each year. The Faith Promise Mission’s Budget is separate from the general budget of the church and is funded by faith promises. A faith promise is when you make a promise to provide financial support to missions, you may not know where the resources will come from, and you trust God to provide the resources to meet your promise.  This year’s Faith Promise Missions Budget goal is $310,000 and supports global and local missionaries, missionary organizations, short-term mission trips and projects.

Can you help with meal set up and clean up during the conference?  To volunteer, sign up at the Sign Up Center in the Narthex, or contact Beryl Marin.
