Happy Friday Westminster! It rolled around quickly this week. I have a couple of reminders for you:
- Share the Bounty begins this Sunday. Bring your extra flowers and/or produce to Sunday’s table. All monies placed in the donation jar will be donated to local food charities. Cool, huh?
- Montreat Service Project: While the youth are at Montreat June 13-19, they will be assembling health kits for two local agencies that support homeless veterans in Asheville. The items needed are: men’s athletic style cotton socks, regular size toothbrushes, and travel size shampoo, soap, lotion, and toothpaste. There will be a donation basket in the Schilling Gallery. Anything you can donate will be a significant help as we seek to be good neighbors. Thank you for your help with this project!
- Sunday worship during the summer months is held at 10:00 a.m. Make plans to stay after worship for fellowship time and Lemonade time in the Schilling Gallery. ♫
This is the day that the Lord has made! Let us rejoice and be glad in it!
Hugs,
Renee Wiesehuegel
I love teaching 3rd and 4th grade Sunday school. I find it is an age where children are beginning to have the ability to discuss topics and form their own opinions. I love watching children discover what the world looks like through their eyes.
Hello, my name is Debbie Babelay. This year I have the wonderful opportunity of teaching the 2-3 year olds in our Sunday School program. They are all precious to me. We have fun learning about God’s love and how each of us is a special child of God. I look forward to their smiling faces each Sunday morning. This is my 3rd year teaching in the Sunday School program. I have also worked with vacation bible school.
I have known Westminster my entire life! I grew up in the church since birth. My faith is rooted in so many wonderful experiences at Westminster such as going on trips with Choristers, Montreat, and a Mission experience to Mexico. I went to college in Alabama at Birmingham-Southern. After college, I lived in Birmingham where I worked in sales. I met and married my husband Wiley there. Jim Carter (former Westminster minister) married us at Independent Presbyterian in Birmingham. Wiley’s career has taken us to New Mexico and Arkansas, and now back to Knoxville. We have been here since 2011. We have 3 children, Ella (11), Grant (7), and Walker (5). I work as the Assistant Director of the preschool at Central Baptist which allows me to have a similar schedule to my children. My favorite job is being their Mom!
