Weekly Announcements
27th February 2008
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. Check out more information at http://www.nothingbutnets.net/. It will cost $2 to be a judge in the contest. If you want to enter a cheesecake, please sign-up on the bulletin board.

New Bible Study – Mondays @ 9
The wonderful Sir Nathan Charles Eugene Harness will be starting a new Bible study on Monday nights at 9pm. We’re going to be going through the gospel in a very intimate way, and this is a great bible study for all you slackers that wish you read the thing more. Cause… well because that’s what we’ll be doing. Reading it.
Small Groups –
It isn’t too late to join a small group. We will be forming some new ones this semester. Talk to Jenny Massa if you are interested (if you don’t know who that is just ask and we’ll point you in the right direction). These are great groups in which to really grow spiritually in the company of fellow Christians. It is a great way to hold each other accountable, have people to go to for advice, have a supporting group of friends, and just get closer to some Wesley peeps.
Book Studies – 2/27 – 8:30pm
It isn’t too late to join us! We will be having two awesome book studies again this semester. The women will be studying Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World and the men will be studying Saving Daylight. Contact Mike Powell (map411) or Mindy Harris (mgh105) for more info.
Spring Break Mission Trip – March 7 - 16
We are going to Beaumont, Texas to help with the Hurricane Rita Recovery. The group will be roofing, dry wall hanging, taping, mudding, sanding, painting, floor replacement and repair. It costs $50 per person which includes food, supplies for work sites, lodging, activity one evening, insurance, showers, and t-shirt. It will be a whole lot of fun and a great opportunity to serve.
