Oakdale Wesleyan Church would like to thank the Kindergarten class of Paidea Child Development Center for their collection and donation of items for the food pantry. They walked over their large gift on a cold morning, restocking the shelves here in time to help others have a better holiday season.
In partnership with Indiana Wesleyan University, Oakdale Wesleyan Church has sponsored an art contest. Student artists prepared works depicting Philip the Evangelist and the Ethiopian Official from Acts 8:26-40. Artwork entries hang at the Beard Arts Center at IWU from December 1, 2014 to January 9, 2015, and, in addition to the artist receiving a cash or scholarship prize from the memorial gifts of Don and Trudy Emory, the winning piece will be brought to to hang permanently at Oakdale Wesleyan Church as a reminder and symbol of our mission, given to us by Jesus, to make disciples from all peoples by the power of the Holy Spirit.
The contest guidelines were: “Students should create 2D work on canvas or board that is no smaller than 24″ x 36″ and no larger than 36″ x 46″. Work can be orientated in either portrait or landscape. The style of the work may be: classical/traditional, realistic, or impressionistic, based upon any part of all of the story of Philip and the Ethiopian from Acts 8:26-40. The winning entry will be a symbol for the call to multi-ethnic ministry, making disciples and missions.” We are now pleased to show the entries and announce the winner. Continue reading

Help our local Tartan High School win part of a $100,000 grant!This grant is through Celebrate My Drive.
First, the not-so-good news: More teens die from car crashes than any other cause. And the first year of driving is the most dangerous.
The good news: There’s something we all can do about it. And it involves a celebration!
That’s what Celebrate My Drive is about – celebrating this big, new life of freedom that comes with a driver’s license. Part of that life means making smart choices behind the wheel, which is why we’re spreading the message of 2N2® – 2 eyes on the road, 2 hands on the wheel. It’s a simple habit that can reduce distracted driving and help new drivers build confidence on the road.
This party even gives you and your high school a chance at some pretty sweet prizes – like a $100,000 or $25,000 Grant for your high school, and maybe even one of two Grand Prize concerts featuring GRAMMY® Nominated The Band Perry.
Last year, thousands of high schools in communities all over North America joined the celebration, with more than six million safe driving commitments made. And you’re invited to this year’s party.
