UMW News, Cub Scouts, Worship Updates United Methodist Women FAITH · HOPE · LOVE IN ACTION There will be no Wesley UMW activities until further notice. God bless each of you and stay safe. While March began normal enough for Pack 19 with regular den activities it has experienced an unprecedented and abrupt halt like the rest of the country. Our scouters have been using this time to individually work on advancements, hike, fish and other outdoor activities. Once the health threat has subsided meetings will resume as usual. Scouts are working extra hard to prepare their Pinewood Derby cars and will also be selling Blue & Gold Meats soon. In these times remember the Scout Motto; Be Prepared. Yours in Scoutings Best, Justin P. Cates Worship & “Fellowship” Updates I received an update from our conference office recommending we cancel any in-person church gathering through the end of April. While this is the last thing I want to do, I believe it is the responsible thing to do. Therefore, we will not gather for worship through the end of April and then we will Wesley UMC Newsletter • We will continue to have live worship on the Wesley Facebook page (WesleyUMCFortSmith) — 9:30 every Sunday morning. If you are unable to join us then for worship, you will still be able to watch the service at a later time on the Facebook page. • Clyde Bates of Wesley UMC will teach a Sunday School online from the quarterly. If you are interested in this, email Clyde at —clydewilly@live.com • I will offer Bible Study on Facebook on Wednesdays at 6:00. We are striving to creatively be the church within our context and that has proven to be difficult but we are all trying to make the best of it. • Please continue to financially support our church. We need your support to be able to pay our regular monthly expenses. If you have any questions on how to do this, please call me 501.650.1293. • If you or someone you know needs anything, please call me and myself or another volunteer will help make it happen. We are here to help. Just ask. Pastor Zeke Page 2 reevaluate from there. April 2020
