Backpack Program Update!

By

The Backpack Team is hard at work preparing for the We’ve Got Your Back event on August 20. Backpacks and supplies are being ordered in the coming week and we are starting our work on sock and underwear donations. We will be hosting volunteer nights on Wednesdays in July (6, 13, 20, 27) to work on preparing the supplies for backpack stuffing in August and to start packaging socks and underwear. 

We are also looking to get volunteers for the event day on August 20 signed up now so we can keep you up to date on all things Backpack until then. Look for some of our team members in the atrium after service on Sunday or fill out the interested volunteer form.

Thank you for helping us make this year’s festival a great one!

“Wesley Learning” Begins June 19

By

Our church Finance Team is proud to offer a series of learning opportunities this summer, designed especially for seniors and their loved ones. Our first session will take place on Sunday June 19 at 11:15 AM, and will focus on a variety of financial questions. How can you avoid savvy financial scames? What do you need to know about basic financial estate planning? When is the best time to add an adult child to your bank account? We’ll focus on these and other financial matters during this session. Refreshments will be provided, so please RSVP by June 12 to reserve your spot. RSVP by emailing Pastor Candy or contacting the church office (610-865-5715).

Garden Ministry – Plots are still available!

By

Get your hands in the dirt for our good cause! There are still a few plots left in our Wesley Community Garden. Throughout the growing season, our plots help to provide fresh produce for local food pantries and soup kitchens. For more information or to reserve your plot, contact Lisa Cook or the church office.

Don’t have a green thumb, but want to help out? Contact the church office to be added to the “watering schedule” and help take care of our seedlings.
