Pastor Mark Blakely |
Wellsville’s First Christian Church was awarded this year’s
Community Service Award by members of the Wellsville Area
Chamber-of-Commerce. Members of the
First Christian family have always been one of the first to offer assistance
when needed. This year they set a new
bench mark earning them the honors of being good neighbors.
In the past year they began a program for Middle School
students that could use some tutoring with their studies. This past summer they started Mission
Wellsville helping area residents in need instead of traveling to far off
places. Just this past week they started
a “Bread of Life Outreach Ministry” giving out free loaves of bread to anyone
stopping by. Like the popular commercial
for an insurance company says, “like a good neighbor ‘First Christian’ is
there.
Accepting the award on behalf of the First Christian
parishioners was Pastor Mark Blakely.
