mulch-test-feature

This year the Pender Men are teaming with our sponsored Boy Scout troop #1530 and combining our mulch sales so that we can help each other’s programs and deliver your mulch to your driveway on Saturday March 5th.

Pender Men sponsors short term mission trips for our parishioners to places like Peru, Thailand, Poland, Paraguay, and Philippi, WV, as well as supporting local missions and vital Pender activities like the recent Men’s Retreat held this past November.

Please visit http://goo.gl/PJWfMN to securely order your mulch, or contact Dave Cacner at dcacner@verizon.net.

Please also consider volunteering to assist in delivering mulch with us on the 5th.

Thanks so much!

Party in the Dark ~ Sept. 14th at 6:00 pm

party-dark

 

 

When you spend one hour in the dark, you will bring light to families who live in complete darkness every night.  On September 14th at 6:00 pm, Pender will be making solar powered lights to take to the border villages that have no electricity in Thailand as part of the Thailand Short-Term Mission Team.

Please bring your family and come out to help assemble the lights.  We will start the evening with an Asian-themed pot luck dinner.  Every family should bring food to share and then we will assemble the light kits.

Donations to defray the costs of the light kits can be placed in the jar in the Narthex or placed in the offering with a note for “Party in the Dark”.

Questions contact:  Laura and David Shuping by clicking here.
