Today we celebrate and honor Parry Jones for an incredible milestone - his retirement after 20 years of faithful military service. On May 30th, Parry held his retirement ceremony at Fort Sill, marking the completion of two decades of sacrifice, dedication, leadership, and service to our nation.

Throughout his military career, Parry continued working hard to complete his college education, showing remarkable perseverance and commitment to growth even during the demands of military life. We are also proud to celebrate his achievement of earning his bachelor’s degree - a wonderful accomplishment that reflects his determination and discipline.

Parry and his family have also faithfully served Wesley Chapel with generous hearts, kindness, and dedication. Their love for the church family and willingness to serve others have been a true blessing to our community.

Parry, thank you for your service, your leadership, your example, and your faithfulness. We pray that this new season of retirement will be filled with peace, joy, good health, meaningful time with family, and exciting new opportunities ahead.

Congratulations on both your retirement and your graduation! Wesley Chapel celebrates with you and your family today. ❤️

Today’s Potluck & Praise at Wesley Chapel was such a joyful and meaningful time together! Even in the hot Oklahoma weather, the day was filled with laughter, fellowship, worship, and love because of everyone’s dedication, servant hearts, and willingness to help.

We shared wonderful food, joyful praise songs, and a special performance by our Youth Band that made the day even more beautiful. It was so encouraging to see different generations worshipping and spending time together as one church family.

Today was also especially meaningful as we celebrated Parry’s 20 years of military service and retirement. We were honored to have so many family members join us for this special occasion, including Parry’s twin sister’s family, The Cross family, and Christina’s parents. Their presence made the celebration even more memorable and meaningful.

Thank you to everyone who cooked, served, cleaned, sang, played music, and simply showed up with joyful hearts. Days like today remind us how blessed we are to be part of the Wesley Chapel family.
To God be all the glory! ❤️

Today, our Fish Fry event came to a beautiful close. We were truly blessed to see so many people come out so many that we ran out of seats early on! Because of the great turnout, we even had to begin earlier than planned. Although we prepared a large amount of food, it was quickly enjoyed, and unfortunately, some who arrived later were not able to receive everything we hoped to offer.

Even so, this event became another meaningful moment of gathering and connection for Wesley Chapel. It was a joy to see our church filled with families, neighbors, and children, all sharing in fellowship and community.

We give our heartfelt thanks to all who worked so hard to prepare and serve, and to everyone who came and supported this event. Because of you, Wesley Chapel continues to grow as a loving and welcoming church.

I am truly grateful and happy to be part of building this church together with you. May God continue to bless our community abundantly.
