Outreach Opportunities

Baggo, Pizza and Fellowship

“Saving Faith" revolves around Faith Scott and her Uncle

Donny. Faith is the Executive Director of the Ritz Theater in

the small Tennessee town of Clinton. After years of struggle

to keep the doors open it looks like it might be time to shut

them for good. In one last ditch effort to keep the theater

alive, Faith and Uncle Donny look to put together a big

Christmas show...in June. Using his connections, that Faith

knows nothing about, Uncle Donny is able to book a big

time headliner for the show - Vince Gill and Amy Grant.

Peter Marsh is a local business man in Clinton that has

been waiting for the Ritz to go under so he can buy it cheap

from the bank and sell it to a big time developer. When he

hears about the Vince Gill/Amy Grant show, he pulls out all

the stops to make sure the show does not go on. Uncle

Donny, Faith and their friends and family pull together to

make sure that they have done everything in their power to

keep the doors to the Ritz Theater open, but can they

succeed? PLEASE JOIN US AND BRING A FRIEND!

Summer Movie Night

Sunday, June 30 at 6:00 pm Wesley will be hosting a Baggo Game Night at the Wesley

Ministry Center starting in June.

We will meet the 1st and 3

rd Wednesday of the month

@ 6:00pm during the months of June, July and

August. A Baggo tournament will be held in September to

finish the league and declare the champions! If you are

interested please sign up in the church office or call the

office @ 309-647-1015. If you have a baggo board we

can borrow, please contact the office.

Peace With Justice Offering - June 16

Peace with Justice Sunday is one of six church wide Special Sundays with offerings of The United Methodist Church. Peace with Justice Sunday enables The United Methodist Church to have a voice in advocating for peace and justice through a broad spectrum of global programs. The special offering benefits peace with justice ministries in the annual conference and through the General Board of Church and Society.

Together, United Methodists do remarkable ministry around the world. We care for survivors recovering from earthquakes and storms; we invest, long term, in vulnerable communities; we implement the most effective solutions to diseases like malaria; we equip the next generation to lead the church and society. In all of this, we share the good news of Jesus Christ.

Thank You

We thank all of our Wesley Family for their prayers

and love during Tom’s fight against cancer, and as

Tom said, “It’s not all about the current situation, it’s

about God’s plan”. Roland and Sally

I want to thank Pastor Bruce for his visits, Pastor

Leanne and my church family for their prayers, cards

and concerns. They were greatly appreciated.

Wesley Mission Team

love of Christ as they teach conversational English and build

relationships with High School Students.
