A Word from Cameron Bishop, CEO, Wesley Glen Ministries
Following a cold winter, the campus of Wesley Glen Ministries is coming to life. The flowers are blooming, the grass is turning green, and leaves are returning to the trees that will soon provide us shade from the summer heat. But it is not just mother nature that is bursting with new life. We too are experiencing incredible growth at Wesley Glen. Not only are the individuals we serve growing spiritually, physically, and socially, our agency is growing in capacity!
We have successfully completed MAJOR steps towards opening our new home as we received our license from the Department of Community Health! Now that we have this license, the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities has worked to provide us with the necessary approvals required for us to move in! Ultimately, this home will enable us to serve four new individuals.
In addition to our new home, we have added a new program that provides the individuals we serve and those in the wider community with specialized supports to help them engage in more activities. For example, one of our guys, Jim, has a desire to play tennis. Through this new program, Jim has a mentor who takes him to play tennis each week. But the true benefit is far more than what takes place on the tennis court. It is truly the connection between Jim and his mentor…a friend, someone he can depend on, someone who cares for him and supports him in achieving his hopes and dreams.
Achieving hopes and dreams …this is the heart of Wesley Glen. While our mission is to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, our goal is to bring that mission to life by creating opportunities for people like Jim to feel fully supported in their lives, to know they are loved, and to grow in their faith and connection to others so that they can live an Abundant Life! Thank you for being a part of helping us fulfill this all-important mission of serving God’s people!
