A CHURCH THAT SHOWS UP

“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” - John 13:35 

You are invited to make an impact!

We believe God calls each of us to change the world for the better! At Wesley, we don’t sit on the sidelines. We get out of our seats and into the streets to care for our neighbors. Join a community outreach and serve the hungry and homeless in NJ. Or go global and help with Nyagidha Education Center in Kenya on the other side of the world.

Weekly Mission

Ending Local Hunger.

We are big on feeding people. We collect food for South Plainfield Social Services and partner with New Dover UMC in Edison to make hundreds of sandwiches and collect food for St. Joseph's Food Distribution Center in Elizabeth every Friday. Needed items include pasta, snacks, crackers, cookies, beef stew, tuna, shampoo, cream rinse, Chef Boyardee, sides, potatoes, fruits, oil, and flour.

For more information, click here. To join the Bread Breakers team (Monday night @ 7:00 PM) or arrange drop offs through Wesley Church, please contact Connie Palmer.

We delivered more than 100,000 sandwiches
since the pandemic.

Monthly Missions

October Mission

Socktober

Please donate adult socks. There will be collection bins set up in Fellowship Hall and the Narthex for sock donations. The socks will be delivered to the Reform Church in Highland Park, which has an extensive homeless ministry. The mission team has approved $500.00 in matching funds to buy more socks.

Missions Update

From the Mission Team (10/3/2025):

We will be back in the lunchroom on Monday with whomever can help us pack. All sandwiches appreciated. Please drop them off on Sunday or bring them to the church on Monday at 7:00 p.m.

We packed 331 lunches at New Dover last Friday to deliver to both Elizabeth and Rahway.

This week shopping list for the South Plainfield Social Services Department: syrup, jelly, oil, cleaning supplies, canned chicken breast, snacks, cookies, toiletries, mashed potatoes, side dishes, pasta, and canned fruit.

The bins have been placed in the Narthex and Fellowship Hall to deposit your socks for Socktober.

Will finalize numbers for Nyagidha next week.

Thank you for your consistent support of all our mission projects.
