Pastor's Notes to Wesley
|
|
I wanted to give everyone a word of encouragement and share a challenge. I have had a great many friends pass away the last few months and learned a lot from being with the families through the process. I want to encourage everyone, all ages, to put plans in writing. Get as much done as you possibly can. Death of a loved one is an incredibly stressful time and people often do not respond to the stress in healthy ways. I have watched siblings part ways over the simplest of things.
|
|
Write it down. Write down all of the legal contacts they will need and critical account numbers. Have a legal document that states power of attorney. Your word is not sufficient, it has to be written. If you want to be buried at a particular place, write it down. Better yet, pay for it in advance and put a copy in your box you prepare for your loved ones. If you want to be cremated, write it down. Pay for it. Get it over with so your family does not have to do this.
|
|
If there are particular things you want in your church service, write them down. I know none of us want to think about these things and our children are more reluctant to discuss this than we are, so bring it up.
|
|
I am putting together a document as a checklist for everyone to follow based on what I have learned over the years. If you want help, I will help you. The last thing any of us want is our children arguing over something simple.

|
I do love being your pastor,

until 1968 the Methodist churches in Cuba were part of the Florida Annual Conference? In 1997 a covenant document was signed by Cuban and Florida Bishops, renewing the relationship, and a new ministry was born: The Cuba/Florida Covenant, now known as the Methodist United in Prayer....

If your small group or ministry has praise stories &/or news to share, let the rest of the church know! This is how we all stay connected!
|
We have TV monitors located in the church for everyone to use to get the good news out about what we are doing in our church as well as in our community.
