Absolutely Everyone is Welcome at Westminster

This Sunday: Two Services at 8:30a & 11:00a

This week we hear the story of God’s sending manna to the people in the wilderness. It’s a story about the intimate generosity of God…, which is oddly so very easy to forget! This is our story: we walk in the wilderness. And in the wilderness God rains bread from heaven. And it’s a joyful, beautiful thing. And we walk in the wilderness. Join us as we reflect on another of the central stories of our tradition and seek the deep joy of God’s presence.

Minister for Faith Formation Team

Rev. Jen Porter, Associate Pastor for Faith Formation and Pastoral Care 

“I care about what God is doing in the life of every soul. I care about spiritual practices that can help us listen and can open us to the very presence of God. I want to help people listen to their souls and learn to speak about their faith, to grow in comfort and confidence and to do so with community.” 

Kyle Nolan, Minister for Faith Formation and Mission 

“In the past year, I have experienced first-hand the hunger in the congregation for thick, contextualized, theological engagement. Also the need for a shared vocabulary that would speak to the sacredness of each individual and family’s calling as part of the larger community of faith.”

Mental Health Referral Panel

This booklet is intended to be an extension to our pastoral care at Westminster. We intend this list of professionals to be a means by which we can extend the safety of Westminster’s heart beyond the bounds of the congregation. The practitioners listed in the panel were discovered and vetted through a faithful committee’s suggestions and a subsequent interview process with them and the Pastoral Care Team.

Linking Lives

Each week, we share a new opportunity for you to consider linking your life with someone in a meaningful way. Godfrey-Lee Public Schools is looking for Spanish interpreters to work with school parents, students, and staff to ensure that parents have a voice in their children’s education. Scheduling is very flexible; you can be on-call for event-related needs or you can commit to a regular shift, like school drop-off hours. Each opportunity to interpret helps give parents a voice to understand and contribute to their child's success. Interested? Contact Heather at (616)717-5536 or heatherc@wpcgr.org.
