Mission & Service
Mission & Service
Wesley is very active in Mission and Service. Monthly, we take a communion offering for a different ministry/agency. We also collect a monthly food item for Good Samaritan Ministries – our goal is 300 of said food item.
Wesley also collects items each month for a different ministry/agency. These are items that the group is in need of at the current moment. Please see the newsletter or bulletins for this information as well as the Monthly Shopping List.
Wesley also takes many special offerings during the year as well as collects other items needed. Our youth are very active in Missions as well.
We also participate in hands on missions through Appalachian Service Project Housing Repair, doing school kits and food boxes for those in need and gleaning for Second Harvest Food Bank.
Wesley serves Fair Trade Coffee only. Click here to learn more about fair trade.
