Among friends of The Methodist Foundation for Arkansas, there was much to celebrate at the 37th Annual Bishops’ Club Luncheon. This year’s event, held on Friday, May 17, 2024, at Little Rock’s Camp Aldersgate, included a record attendance crowd and featured speaker Dr. Ashley Boggan, the General Secretary of the General Commission on Archives and History.
At the luncheon, we were thrilled to announce Bishops’ Club members made possible our partnership with First United Methodist Church in Crossett and 200,000 More Reasons to address food insecurity in Ashley County. Ashley County is in the top 10 of all counties in the nation for the highest percentage of population with food insecurities. Our new partnership enables Crossett FUMC’s food pantry to expand their capabilities and serve as a hub to address food insecurity in Ashley County and surrounding counties.
To commemorate our first Wesley Heritage trip to England, the Foundation presented members with a John Wesley or Susanna Wesley bobblehead as a special thank you gift.
