Wesley Sunday School Dancers

As we continue with Youth Month, here is a photo of the dancers from Wesley Mission Sunday School. Please remember the combined Youth function at Park Avenue Methodist Church on Sunday 29 November at 3.30pm.

September is Youth Month

September is Youth Month in the Methodist Church. The services in all societies in Mitchells Plain are being led by various youth departments. At Beacon Ridge on Sunday the confirmation class led the service and assisted with Communion. Here is their youth choir:

On Saturday Wesley Mission youth hosted a sports day at the local indoor centre. Various soccer teams played each and there was a good vibe. On Saturday evening Beacon Ridge youth hosted a modelling show.
On the last Sunday of the month there will be a combined rally at Park Avenue in the afternoon. All welcome - it is not just for young people, but also for the young at heart.

Manna and Mercy

The leaders of both churches as well as some potential leaders at Wesley Mission have just completed a leadership course for the Manna and Mercy Bible study programme. They worked hard, spending two Sunday afternoons and five Monday evenings to get through the material. They also worked on some additional leadership principles.

The programme, developed by Daniel Erlander and Alan Storey, encouraged us all to think about the Bible and especially about issues of power, domination and social justice. Hopefully, these leaders will now pass on what they have learnt to others!

Methodist Rule of Life

On Sunday we asked the question 'how do you measure a life?' A rule of life helps one to set goals against which one can check oneself. John Wesley advocated three broad groups which cover the rule of life for Methodists.

Beacon Ridge Leaders Workshop

The Beacon Ridge leaders got together on Saturday to do some visioning.

Progress on Wesley's Loft

Progress is maybe a little slow, but the loft floor is being put into place.

Make, Save, Give all you can

We are having a look at John Wesley's sermon on the use of money - with some adaptation for today. You can read his actual sermon here.
