On Sunday June 29, 2008 at 11 a.m. the congregation of Wesley United Methodist Church on 100 Winthrop Street gathered to praise God as bid a fond farewell to Pastor Kristin White who has been serving part time, together with full time pastor, the Rev. Chungsoo Kim. Wesley UMC is a uniquely bi-lingual congregation serving both English and Korean speaking people. Though they often hold separate worship services, they also come together to worship in both languages about once a month. The celebration on June 29 was a combined service featuring the choir, a sermon by Pastor White and Holy Communion and was open to the public. Bishop Peter Weaver has appointed Ms. White to begin serving the United Methodist congregation of Wayne, Maine on a full time basis starting on July 1. Bishop Weaver, with the assistance of District Superintendent Aida Fernandez, has appointed me to take the part time position at Wesley.
