How Grandpa was led to this book:

Grandpa had often heard the Wesleyan saying of "Do No Harm, Do Good and Stay in Love With God" as he started to attend First United Methodist Church in Conneaut, Ohio in the early 1990s.


Grandpa became active in the church. After going on his first Mission trip to JOSHUA in Steubenville, Ohio, Grandpa was asked to be on the Painesville District Mission Team.


A year later Grandpa was asked to join the newly forming District Laity Board. He then became a District Lay Speaker and ten years later in 2008, he was the Lay Leader of the District Laity Board.  He had represented the District at Annual Conference for three years as an At Large Member and two years as the District Lay Leader. It would be his last year.


​Grandpa and his wife, Debi had decided to move to Kingman, Arizona to be closer to their two youngest grandchildren at the time.


At his last East Ohio Annual Conference, Grandpa received this little book as a gift from the Conference Lay Leader, Alan to the  Conference Laity Board Members. He has blessed by it's message and cherished it ever since receiving it at our annual luncheon on May 17, 2008.


How God works: Flash back 31 years, to college at Ohio University (OU). Grandpa had transfered to OU the Summer of 1967 and had been introduced to the Wesleyan way of life through his three summer school roommates, who were members of the Wesley Foundation College Youth Group. (Story for another time.)
