A.R.K., Wesley at Work, Zeke’s Hours Page 7 A.R.K. (Act of Real Kindness) News The backpack program received some amazing news. The River Valley Regional Foodbank will be supplying 2 pallets of food to the program each month from now and until May. This is a HUGE blessing as we are currently providing weekend food bags to 16 kids (8 at Carnall Elementary, 8 at Cavanaugh Elementary) each week. We also placed and picked up our first order from the foodbank which will go to help fill our blessing boxes. We might be small but we are mighty! We also want to thank Pic-NTote for donating shelves to our food room and Justin Cates for installing those. That is a giant step forward in our mission to alleviate food insecurity in our community. Wesley UMC Newsletter Wesley at Work During the months of November & December Wesley collected food items to donate to the Community Services Clearinghouse as part of the UMC mission 200,000 Reasons. Our goal was 550 food items and we collected over 650 food items. Thank you to everyone who donated to this much needed mission. Your generosity made the lives of people in our community a little happier this Zeb & Rosalee Allen dropping off food items to the Community Services Clearinghouse.

Security Update Thanks to an anonymous donor, Wesley has purchased and installed “door bells” to the east & west entrances of the sanctuary. When pushed, a light will light up at the sound board to alert that someone is at the door. January 2019
