Letter from Bert Bishop
The church office received the following letter from Bert Bishop regarding our work to end the sale of Confederate Flag merchandise at the Wayne County Fair.

"Dear Westminster Presbyterian Church,

Congratulations! I am so impressed with the good news. Yes, I know there is a long way to go, but the confederate flag at the Wayne County Fair was a worthwhile battle. Thank you so much for being part of the solution.

Sincerely,
Bert Bishop"

Men's Breakfast (Temporarily Suspended Due to COVID-19)

Men's Breakfast meets on the first Tuesday of every month at the downtown Buehler's at 7:45 am. Sometimes we are many gathered and other times we are only two, but it is always a meaningful time of friendship, food, and conversation. All men are invited!
Westminster Dance Group

The Westminster Dance Group meets every Thursday from 6:30 to 7:30 pm at the Westminster Church House. Anyone who wants to try a little bit of floor exercise and some free-form dance is welcome!

This is a low-impact, gentle movement group where non-dancers and newcomers can feel right at home!
Walking in Mindfulness (Currently ongoing!)

On the second Sunday of each month, we invite you to join us at Oak Hill Park beginning at 8:00 am for a contemplative worship service and walk. Contact Joel Chupp or Pastor Enikő with questions.
Fellowship after Worship (Temporarily Suspended Due to COVID-19)

Westminster's fellowship time is an important way to build relationships with one another. We invite you to join us after worship for light refreshments and conversation. If you would like to provide refreshments or serve as our Sunday morning host, please visit the SignUpGenius link. The link will be posted for signups when fellowship starts up again.
