Pastor's Notes to Wesley

Hello Wesley,

For the last two days I helped my son prep his house to sell. Somehow a bunch of his stuff made it into my garage. Curious how all of that works. I am the least likely person to hold onto things and things end up in my garage as storage until they return to their owner.

Meanwhile, the dog, Coda, has her head in the trash can and Ezekiel is playing nerf in the room with his dad while Brenda eats a salad and I write the church an encouraging word. And I would guess my life is similar to many who have a houseful. Honestly, I would not have it any other way.

Family is just the best. Crazy, impulsive, loud, obnoxious, helpful, caring, thoughtful, loyal. I love my family. I pray you have a family to love. It pushes us to the edge and that is just awesome. Brenda just had a nerf dart whiz by her head and never looked up from her salad. Ha.


Take a minute today to appreciate your family.

I love being your pastor.

Ernie

UKRAINE CARE UPDATE

Wesley,

I am grateful to have seen the vast amount of medicines you helped fund, Wesley. These medicines were specifically requested from over eight different locations in Poland and Ukraine by physicians treating children and adults including the elderly. We spent three days separating items into different rooms representing the different locations where items would be used. I thought I packed heavy but NOTHING compared to the 14 suitcases we packaged and prayed over.

While the US-Ukraine missions team had a very specific itinerary, violence in the western Ukraine town of Lviv, the team's first planned stop, changed plans. All centers will receive the needed medicines, including three suitcases coming to Kharkiv.

If you are reading this article on Thursday, please pray for the missions team as they make their way over the border into Ukraine and return around 3:30 pm EST.

Dear prayer warriors:

God has allowed me the privilege of sending out requests, since the day we did it by phone. However, now to bring the system up to giving new people the opportunity to serve in this manner, we're trying to change the way we do things. We are asking that instead of emailing me a prayer request, you can email the Church office ([email protected]) or use the link below (in blue) to enter your prayer requests on the Wesley Prayer Wall that is connected to the website.

If you could please help me in spreading the word on this change,
I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for your prayers and the privilege to serve.
In His service,
Fran

Please visit prayer wall for recent prayer requests!

Watch Recent Sermon Here
Let us pray for you: When viewing the Worship Service, share/type in your prayer requests in the Comment Field. Your prayer requests will be recorded and added to the Prayer Wall in the church's website so that prayer warriors who visit the Prayer Wall can include your requests in their prayer lists.
Please Note: Prayer requests from the previous services have been posted to the Prayer Wall. Please take time to visit it and pray for these requests. Many Thanks!
