Quote of the Week

“Outside of Christ, I am only a sinner, but in Christ, I am saved. Outside of Christ, I am empty; in Christ, I am full. Outside of Christ, I am weak; in Christ, I am strong. Outside of Christ, I cannot; in Christ, I am more than able. Outside of Christ, I have been defeated; in Christ, I am already victorious. How meaningful are the words, “In Christ." - Watchman Nee

Be Where Your Feet Are
|
|
Be where your feet are. It sounds like something you’d read in the Bible. Have you ever noticed how much the Bible connects faith to your feet? Explicit or implied, woven throughout the narrative are references to feet which stand, walk, step, stumble, slip, and follow. To Read More, click here.

Cold Night Shelter
|
|
|
Needed! - Wesley Volunteers to staff the cold weather shelter at Jackson Springs Park. The shelter opens when the weather forecast predicts the temperature to go below 40 degrees. We are looking for volunteers that can do a 3 to 4 hour shift when the shelter is open. We want to have many volunteers so no one has to do a shift more than one night in a row. Please be a part of this important ministry to serve the homeless in our neighborhood.
|
Also, we need to start gathering supplies. We always need gloves, socks, and scarves.
For more information or to volunteer, please contact Nancy Blunk at 813 -966 -1496

Last year, the Pinellas County Property Appraiser office collected needed items and it was an overwhelming success. Ascensus continues to collect items for Pack a Sack year-round and we are so grateful. Community Montessori also collects throughout their school year.
