Join Us for Worship
John Wesley's sermons were written to be preached to many churches by the numerous "circuit riders" of his day. Join us for our current sermon series, Modern Day Wesley, where pastors Jabe and Katie will translate Wesley's timeless words into a sermon for today. We also encourage you to read the original sermon in John Wesley's own words each week with the link provided: John Wesley The Way To The Kingdom

Helping Neighbors in Need
During this season of giving, please consider donating nonperishable food items for our friends and neighbors experiencing food insecurity due to the government shutdown and with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), the nation’s largest nutrition assistance program, set to lapse for the first-time ever on November 1. Currently, over 9,000 Moore County residents receive SNAP benefits.

There are many ways to help.
- Drop off food items in our Coalition Pantry Box in the narthex.
-
Take food donations directly to the Coalition during regular business hours to the Gilmore Client Services building, located at 1500 West Indiana Ave., Southern Pines.
-
Monetary donations can be made at sandhillscoalition.org.
-
Fresh perishable food items can be taken to the Freedge, an outdoor refrigerated pantry located in front of the Coalition Resale Shop on Pennsylvania Ave. Open 24 hours.
-
Food donations can be taken to the Food Bank of Central and Eastern NC at 195 Sandy Ave, Southern Pines.
-
Donate online at foodbankcenc.org where for every $10 donated, they can provide food for up to 50 meals due to their longstanding partnership with local farmers, retailers and manufacturers in North Carolina.
