bring a towel

Kids and adults get a special treat on the first Sunday of their birthday month. Pick up a "It's my birthday month" badge and get a birthday cake flavored Hershey's Kiss.

We're asking folks to wear the badges out to restaurants, when shopping and as you go around town. It's an easy way to let people know about San Pedro, and a fun reminder to celebrate God's blessing through your life. You deserve a special treat, come worship and enjoy the San Pedro way to recognize your birthday.

P.s. Keep the badge and wear it for the month of your birthday, then bring it back to the name tag center so other folks can share it, too.

We're growing! With more children attending Sunday morning worship with their families, we're expanding our program into multiple classrooms. We've got a team of teachers but we need more children's ministry helpers.

The Sunday morning program we host is a special time for children (aka Kid's Church ). Sign-up for specific Sundays through our Sign Up Genius link: HERE. Make a difference.

For more information, please contact our Children's Ministry Directors, Lisa Hunt and Alicia Jeffrey at kids@sanpedropc.org.

Children will be singing for our Palm Sunday music celebration. Pastor Paul put together a teaching video for them to practice the words at home.

On March 4^th a group of about 30 gathered to work on our lower lot property. My goal for the workday was to cut down much of the brush that had grown up so one could see down to the street from our parking lot. In addition, we needed to pick up the massive amount of garbage that people have left on the property over the years. As people arrived I told them that it was a big job and we probably wouldn't be able to get it all done in a day. Wow, was I wrong!

I had a conversation with a friend a couple of weeks ago who had been given a very difficult set of things to deal with for a loved one. He was concerned he would never be able to get it all done. He said, “Paul, I thought the good Lord never gave us more than we can handle.” 

God often gives us more than we can handle on our own, but never gives us more than we can handle in community. The job of dealing with the lower lot was more than I thought possible. But when my faith family of San Pedro showed up, the job was easy. The job was even fun.

As for my friend, neighbors, friends, and family have been there for him. Folks have reached out, helping him with all he needs to get done. 

As I've pondered both of these things in the past days, I am reminded that God comes to us in the form of community, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. It is in community one with another, that we can better see and understand God in our lives.

Pastor Paul put together another great song for the kids to learn a Bible passage - Deuteronomy 6:4-5. The children will sing this song in worship in March.
