Blessing of the Animals
Bring your furry, feathery, or four-legged friends to church for a special pet blessing! On Sunday October 2 at 12:15 PM, join us outside (in front of the main doors) for a brief “Blessing of the Animals” service. We’ll offer your beloved pet some prayers of blessing… as well as some delicious treats! Help pass on the blessing by bringing a donation of pet food or pet supplies to benefit the Animal Food Bank of the Lehigh Valley.
Celebrated each year near the Feast of St. Francis (the patron saint of animals, according to some Christian traditions), the Blessing of the Animals provides the opportunity to ask God’s blessing over the pets who are truly part of our families. For more information, please contact the pastor.
Church Wide Picnic and “Fall Clean Up Day”
Mark your calendars and join us as we spruce up God’s house (and the surrounding grounds) during our Fall Cleanup Day. This year, the cleanup day will take place on Sunday September 25. Our Trustees invite you to join them immediately after worship for a picnic lunch (hot dogs and beverages provided) before turning to various indoor and outdoor building tasks. Many hands make light work — and that work makes a huge difference!
For more information, or to sign up, please contact the church office.
Amazing Ringing Kids – October 2
ARK (Amazing Ringing Kids) Begins October 2
Calling all Wesley kiddos — it’s time to start ringing again! Our children’s chime choir, ARK (Amazing Ringing Kids) is back for another year of making music to glorify God. Rehearsals will take place on Sunday mornings at 8:30 AM (before Sunday School), beginning October 2.
ARK includes ringers from kindergarten through fifth grade. If your child is interested in ringing this year (or if you are interested in helping as an assistant), please contact our Director of Bell Choirs, Chris Perfetti. Let’s make a joyful noise to the Lord!
Adult Study Leaders Needed
If you have a love of learning or a desire to connect with other people of faith, we encourage you to volunteer as an adult study group leader! Leaders are needed for adult Sunday School classes (either before or after worship) as well as mid-week Bible study groups. Not sure where to begin? Pastor Candy will be happy to help you pick out a study resource and walk you through the process. For more information, or to volunteer, contact Pastor Candy.
Wesley Church Fall Sale
Mark your calendars for Saturday October 23, 9:30 AM – 2:00 PM, for the church’s annual fall sale. Come shop from many yard sale and vendor tables.
