Dear Wesley Family and Friends,

What a year it has been. When I began my ministry at Wesley in July 2024, I couldn’t have imagined the journey that lay ahead. Just two months later, our church was devastated by two back-to-back hurricanes—Helen and Milton—which left our Sanctuary and Preschool flooded and unusable.

As we began to recover, we also experienced the painful loss of several beloved pillars of our congregation—faithful members whose presence and service helped keep the wheel of ministry turning. It has been a hard year of grief, survival, and rebuilding. And yet, through it all, God has been faithful.

With prayer, perseverance, and your unwavering support, we are thrilled to announce that we are finally returning to our Sanctuary! To God be the glory!

We invite you to join us for our Grand Reopening Celebration on:

Sunday, September 21, 2025

Traditional Worship – 9:00 AM

Modern Worship – 11:00 AM

Celebration Lunch – 12:00 PM in the Fellowship Hall

This is more than a reopening—it is a moment to celebrate God’s sustaining grace and to embrace a fresh start and new beginnings together. If you are unable to attend, we ask that you please keep Wesley in your prayers and consider supporting our church through your giving as we continue to rebuild and move forward in faith.
