Greetings!

Worship Meeting- We’re going to have a meeting on Sunday at 5pm to discuss Focus, the topic of the sermon, the format, etc. If you have an opinion or just want to listen, then by all means please come over. We will meet at Wesley.

Women- There will be some sort of cutesy girls night out where you will get all dressed up and talk about… cleaning… or whatever it is you talk about. So… when you go home for Spring Break bring back some sort of dress.

Men of Men- Same thing, but bring your shotguns back.

Cheesecake Cook-Off - There are a lot of “famous” cheesecake bakers around Wesley House. So, we are going to have our first cheese cake cook-off. This will be a fundraiser for Nothing But Nets, an organization that provides mosquito nets for people in Africa so that they can avoid getting malaria.
