When we rolled out our new coffee mugs earlier this year, many asked if we were planning to offer travel versions of the mugs for purchase. We’re happy to share that travel mugs are now here! Each 12-ounce insulated stainless steel mug costs $20. Mugs may be purchased from Susan at the welcome desk on Sunday mornings after worship, or from the church office throughout the week. Please make checks payable to “Wesley United Methodist Church.”

A Prayer for Pentecost
Whirlwind Spirit of God,
roar through our timidities and fears,
shake the foundations of our ill-placed securities,
sweep away the cobwebs of our apathy,
blow down the walls that separate us, one from another.
Then into all our empty space, breathe
re-strengthened courage to challenge injustice,
renewed belief in the urgency of our vocation,
revitalized passion to change our lifestyles,
re-dedication to speak only words that build and unite.
Let gentle breeze and still small voice
become in us today
mighty wind and loud proclamation.
Make of us a Pentecost people!
Amen.
Help Us Rescue Winston!
Winston the Greyhound (Wesley’s unofficial and accidental church mascot) has been kidnapped, and we need your help to get him back! He’s in no danger, of course… but we still want to rescue him soon. We received a note with the following ransom demands:
- Provide new packages of socks & underwear for the backpack program. (Winston is passionate about the backpack ministry!)
- Provide donations of pet food for the Animal Food Bank of the Lehigh Valley. (Winston wants to care for all dogs and cats in our area!)
- Provide financial donations in any amount to benefit the backpack program.
The ransom note is clear: this rescue must be a church-wide effort! So help us rescue our beloved mascot and support some worthy causes in the process! All donations for Winston’s “ransom” may be placed in the box near the church’s front doors.
From the Church Library:
It’s time to check your shelves (and stacks) for overdue library books. We’d like to get them back as soon as possible. Then you can get some new items for summer reading!
