WE ARE WESLEY UMC
Melodies of Compassion
Every Sunday all of the loose change in our offering goes to fund mission projects outside of the church. A specific mission is chosen for each quarter, which is highlighted in the bulletin and newsletter. Each year we give to a local, state, national, and international mission. Each year over $2,000 is donated to mission through our Melodies of Compassion giving.
Soup Kitchen
On the first Saturday of each month volunteers from Wesley serve a hot meal to approximately 110 hungry men, women, and children at the Interfaith Network Shalom Center soup kitchen in Kenosha. Please contact the church office if you are interested in this great opportunity to serve our community.
Please contact the church office for more information.
United Women of Faith
We meet one Tuesday each month.
The United Methodist Women are a community of women whose purpose is to:
- know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ
- to develop a creative, supportive fellowship
- and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church.
Visitors are always Welcome!
Small Groups
Experience Lent through the lens of Jesus's most powerful mealtime parables.
Travel with Jesus on the road to Jerusalem in this profound six-week Lenten study that explores the parables and stories Jesus told at tables along the way to his final meal. Will Willimon invites readers to experience how these table stories—about searching shepherds, welcoming hosts, prodigal sons, and rejected invitations—illuminate the deeper meaning of the Last Supper and Christ's sacrifice.
Through engaging biblical exploration and Willimon's characteristic storytelling wisdom, readers will:
- Discover how Jesus used meals to reveal the surprising nature of God's kingdom
- Explore how stories of mercy, invitation, and radical hospitality prepare us for Holy Week
- Understand why sharing bread and wine became the central ritual of Christian faith
- Experience Maundy Thursday's profound significance in fresh, meaningful ways
Each chapter concludes with thought-provoking questions for personal reflection or group discussion that connect these ancient stories to contemporary Christian life.
This Lenten season, gather at the table with Jesus and his disciples to experience the journey from Palm Sunday to the cross through the stories that prepared the way. Willimon's accessible yet profound insights will transform how you understand both the Last Supper and your own place at Christ's table.
