A Church With a Huge Heart

Pender is more than a place to worship. We are a community of people learning to follow Jesus, care for one another, and reach out with God's love.

We believe every person is a beloved child of God. That's why we strive to create a church where people of different ages, backgrounds, abilities, and life experiences can feel welcomed, known, and valued.

Come as you are. Find your place. Grow with us.

OUR VISION

Following Jesus. Reaching Others. Seeking Transformation.

We believe following Jesus changes the way we live, love, and serve. Together, we seek God's transformation in our own lives and in the world around us.

We do that by growing in faith, building authentic community, caring for our neighbors, and putting God's love into action.

Faith That Grows With Every Generation

Faith That Grows With Every Generation

Children and families are an important part of life at Pender. We want kids to know they are loved, welcomed, and part of our church family.

From Sunday worship and Sunday School to children's activities and Pender Hill School, we create opportunities for children to learn, grow, have fun, and discover what it means to follow Jesus.

We Are a Praying Church

We Are a Praying Church

Prayer is at the heart of who we are. We believe God hears us, meets us in every circumstance, and invites us to bring our joys, questions, struggles, and hopes before Him.

Whether you need prayer today or want to join others in praying for our church and community, you are welcome here.

There’s a Place for You to Serve

There’s a Place for You to Serve

God has given each of us gifts to share. At Pender, serving can look like welcoming someone at the door, teaching children, leading worship, caring for others, helping with Sunday School, or supporting ministries throughout our church and community.

Find a place to use your gifts and make a difference.

Our mission is to practice and embrace, providing unconditional love and acceptance of all of God's children as He loves and accepts all of us. We do not discriminate based on age, mental, physical, or intellectual ability, culture, gender, race, religious belief or unbelief, or sexual orientation.
