We gathered at Pender UMC for a heartwarming and joyful service as we drew near to Christmas.

Jane McKee shared a special reflection titled “The Ultimate Gift.”

Our children, youth, and adults presented the delightful skit “No Room, No Wi-Fi, No Problem!”—a fun and meaningful reminder of the true spirit of Christmas in today’s world.

Scriptures for the day included Isaiah 9:6–7, Isaiah 7:10–14, Micah 5:2, and Matthew 1:18–25.

Friends and families came together for this festive Sunday of story, song, and anticipation as we prepared our hearts to welcome Christ, our greatest gift.

Whether in person or online, those who joined were renewed by God’s Word, music, and the warmth of Christian community.

The livestream and replay are available on our YouTube channel, and the service has been added to our sermon archive.
