Pastor's Notes to Wesley
|
|
|
|
|
Once again I am amazed at how timely my personal devotions and professional work all funnel to a single idea that so interrupts my thoughts as to actually make me stop, stand still, and listen. I have been studying Romans 15 for the message this week, Hebrews 4 for my Tuesday morning devotions and Philippians for a future message series. At the same time, my son has been fighting for his life with COVID pneumonia.
|
|
So I did the only thing I know to do. I stopped. I stopped everything, and I started praying, and I have been praying every minute since Sunday, even when I am asleep. I know that seems impossible but it is not. So I pray my prayer unto you and ask you to pray this prayer to me and to my family, and especially my son Matthew.

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Romans 15:13

I love being your pastor,

With the generous donation collected last Sunday for Cuba, we’ve been able to send Pastora Misleydis and our Media Luna brothers and sisters some funds through the Florida Methodist Conference and also I am ordering some food to be delivered to the church (please pray these arrive safely). The rest of the funds were placed in a prescription medication order that is being placed for the district (see below) where Media Luna is located for a Medical Commission to allocate (& keep track of distribution) to the different churches.
|
|
My Cuban heart appreciates so much your love and concern in prayer and action toward my countrymen who are trapped in such a ruthless tyranny.
|
|
For any of you who didn’t get the opportunity to donate yet and still want to do so, please read the message below.

URGENT HELP FOR CUBA IN CRISIS- August 2021
|
|
Food shortages are now at acute levels, but the shortages in medications is even worse. The situation is truly bad there, in an unprecedentedly bad way.
|
|
After the Cuban demonstrations, the Cuban government has now relaxed their restrictions of allowing medications to come into the island. The Cuban government is only NOW allowing medications to come through without assessing additional tariffs or confiscating them...
