Meals on Wheels
Do you have one day, one hour, and one gallon of gas you can spare? Then Meals On Wheels is the thing for you! All it takes is you picking up the meals, you driving to the route, and giving the meals to those on the route. It sounds simple, but it is a great way to love on people and bring them a meal they otherwise wouldn’t be able to have.
Routes are available, all we need is you.

Each year Wesley hosts a UM Army. This is a week-long youth camp that comes in the summer, where out-of-town churches send their youth to come and work on people’s homes that are in need of repair or improvement. As part of hosting, Wesley provides some of their meals and a few hours in members’ homes for the workers to clean up and shower in the evenings.
