Love, Faith, and Hope in Action

Luke 6:38
“Give, and it will be given to you.  A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap.
For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured to you.”
Overall, the Bible teaches that helping others is not only a moral obligation, but is also an expression of faith and love.  Helping others is not only a good thing to do, but it is also something that pleases God.  By being kind and generous to those around us, we can make a real difference in the world!
After much faithful deliberation and consideration over their 2025 Mission Giving Budget, our Wesley United Women of Faith have decided to disburse $13,300 to the following organizations listed below.  Most of the benefiting organizations are legitimate United Methodist Church missions projects.

As many of you may or may not know, the bulk of our funds for missions comes from Rummage Sale fundraising and from our Cookbook Fund.  Please consider purchasing a cookbook and/or helping at the Rummage Sale.   This year’s Rummage Sale will take place on Sat., June 7th.
Mark your calendars for this special event.   As you can see from the above organizations in need, your help can make a difference.
