Pastor's Notes to Wesley
|
|
|
Each morning, one of the first things I read is a devotion from Herman Small. Today he referred to a verse pertinent to our effort to connect with everyone through 12/3/1.
|
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God."
|
This past Sunday we sat at tables and shared a little with one another about our faith journeys. At each table someone received the gift of being the initiator of the group. As part of that gift, we were to contact our table guests just to see how they are doing. I want to encourage you to do that. Many may be just fine right now and that is great. Consider what we are doing as a discipline, spiritually filling the lives of others with care.
|
"Cast all of your cares upon Him (Jesus), because He cares for you." Many times we can do that simply by talking with someone about our souls, our joys and our sorrows. Let us learn how important it is to be available to one another.

I love being your pastor,

We will no longer be having the Salvation Army Donation Drop Box here at Wesley. Unfortunately, there have been items that are too large being left outside of the Drop Box that couldn't be collected and it has become an eye sore & a difficult job for the Salvation Army workers. Below is a link for anyone that would like to schedule a pick up for donations through the Salvation Army.
