June 14

This is going to be one of the most eventful weekends we've ever had at Asbury and Wesley Oak. It all begins tonight at 8 pm with an opportunity to see a showcase of an original musical - free of charge! 

Asburian, actor, musician, and writer, Ryan McCurdy cowrote the musical, NIAGARA. It has already been showcased once in New York, and we are excited that Ryan has chosen Asbury as the venue to showcase it in Savannah. Hope you will join us to experience the innerworkings of the development of a musical that we hope will be performed throughout the country one day. 

Then tomorrow morning, Saturday, June 15th at 11:00 a.m., we will be having the Memorial Service for Rev. Claire Marich's mother, Carol Harrison. The ceremony is not at the church; It is on Zoom. Here is the information to help you get connected to the service.

Then at 1:00 pm tomorrow afternoon, we will be having a HYMN SING at the Wesley Oak Campus. Come join us on the corner of Victory Drive and Mechanics Blvd. as we praise God in the Wesley Oak sanctuary (and its new roof)! Whether you are a seasoned singer or just love to listen, all are welcome to join in this celebration of faith through music. 

Then, of course, on Sunday, we will be having our worship services at Wesley Oak (9:30 a.m.) and Asbury Memorial (11:15 a.m.).

At Asbury, my sermon title is Heart and Soul. The main text will be the story of the prophet Samuel anointing young David (I Samuel 16:1-13). If there was ever a story our world needs to hear today, it is this one. I look forward to bringing you its message. 

The great musical revue we've all been waiting for is upon us!

Besides the great music, there will also be wonderful items at the Silent Auction! 

Please spread the news about this fund raiser that involves some of the best talent in Savannah and beyond. Ryan McCurdy will be performing. as will J.J. Collins, two of Savannah's best! Coming from Florida will be Kate Jacobson, one of the best pure natural singers I have ever heard. They've also talked me into singing something, but don't let that keep you from coming! 

The Silent Auction starts at 6:30 PM
The Show starts at 7:30 PM
$15 Admission

A date and time has been set for the Memorial Service for Bev Blank.
The service will be at held at Asbury on Saturday, July 6th at 1:00 p.m.

I will be participating in the Juneteenth Walk to the River on June 19th. If anyone would like to meet up with me, so we can walk as a group, please email me at bghester3@comcast.net.

The community walk to celebrate freedom will begin at 8:30 a.m. at Wells Park and move north down Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., ending at the Savannah River in front of Plant Riverside. 

Looking forward to being with everyone during this eventful weekend and June!

Love and Blessings to all!
