April Update

hello again!

We hope that your spring is off to a great start!

April is one of the busiest months working at Wesley as we are trying to wrap everything up to come to a close AND prepare to start the next year in August. April is when all of our sign-ups for leadership and staff happen so we are always trying to end well and start well all at the same time! We have over 500 people signed up for Leadership next year and over 60 staff members. It is so exciting to see how the Lord is building this ministry and using it in the lives of so many students.

Golf Tournament
Each year, Wesley hosts a Golf Tournament for the purpose of Fundraising.  Aaron always gets a team together and plays--both for fun AND to help Wesley out :) This year he played with some friends from Wesley and from Two Story.  It is always a fun day--

Wednesday Nights
We finished out our services with a Dating Series by Bob and Clay.  It was one of my favorite series all year. It is something that almost all college students have questions about and it was great to address the issues. Click here to listen. I highly recommend it!

Lead Forum
In mid-April, we hold interviews for the next years Leadership group. We do all the interviews in one day and at the end of the day we have a night called Lead Forum where we all come together and worship, hear the vision for the next year and have fun. Aaron and Lindsay Allgood, Leadership/Discipleship Associate Directors, are responsible for making all of this happen. They do a great job organizing and hosting the event. This year, we had a choreographed staff dance to Coldplay and then gave away 2 Coldplay tickets as a door prize! It was a fun night and got everyone excited for next year!

Although we are almost done with our regular work schedule this year, we still have Intern Appreciation at the end of April, which is how we officially close out the year and appreciate the interns. It is always such a special time and we can't wait!

The Lord really has done so much in just 10 months. We are so blessed by this staff, the leaders, and of course--our wonderful supporters. We could not do what we do and what we LOVE to do without you. Thank you.
