Renewal of Vows of Love and Commitment for ALL the people of the Fresno area.

On Sunday, August 29 at 1:00pm on the patio of Wesley United Methodist Church, everyone in Fresno is invited to share in a renewal of vows.

The welcoming and inclusive congregations of Fresno invite all the people of our community to join us as we:

• Celebrate the renewal of vows
• Share songs
• Honor family commitment
• Eat good wedding cake
• Hear words the celebrate the bonds of love from various faith traditions

All the people of the Fresno area, young and old, gay and straight, of whatever race or class, representing all faith traditions centered in love, are welcome. From the steps of the City Hall to the meadows of Woodward Park, from the rolling hills of Clovis to the flat lands of western Fresno County all are welcome!

This will be brief, sacred service that affirms our understanding that God truly is love.

We will provide the wedding cake and drinks, and everyone who comes is asked to bring a salad to share. See you there!

Wesley United Methodist Church is at 1343 E. Barstow, halfway between Cedar and First Streets.
