Habana Art Activity for October

Join us for a fun activity at Habana Health Care Center! For October, we will be decorating masks that were recycled from Pastor Ernie’s Sermon series on Corinthians!

Wesley does a monthly art activity at Habana on the last Saturday of each month. If you would like to join the Habana Team, please email Terri.wesleycommunications@gmail.com

THANKSGIVING COMMUNITY MEAL

Wesley will continue the tradition of blessing famiies with a complimentary meal on Thanksgiving Day. Last year, due to covid, we had a drive thru and delivery service. In the past we had a sit down dinner as well, and hopefully if covid is at bay, we will again this year.

This is a great way to spend Thanksgiving Day fellowshiping with other members while serving the community. It has been a welcomed blessing to struggling families and individuals who find themselves alone for the holiday, as well as the people who serve.

If you would like to volunteer to help serve this year in the Community Thanksgiving Meal, please contact the church office at admindesk@wesleymemorial.net

Below are pictures from last year!

Go Day

Go Days will be scheduled for the month of November. We are needing people to volunteer to be a team leader. Various teams will be set up and paired with the best suited task. Please contact the church office if you are willing to be a leader. This year George and Terry Mummert have agreed to help coordinate activities.

If you know of someone who needs a little extra help, please submit info to church office. Please include address, contact number and a description of the need. We will start a listing now and then turn over to George and Terry to coordinate as we approach closer to November.

Other People are Important!

“And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.”
