- 2. 2 Dear Friends ofWesley Chapel Mission Center, Grace and peace to you! While the WCMC logo is new, the vision is not. Our new “look” better represents that WCMC truly is a guiding light and trusted, loving safe haven. During 2019, God’s unconditional love shone through our paid and volunteer staff members as they engaged with children on typical days, for special occasions, and during their darkest moments. Children eagerly talked about their school days and their interests as staff members escorted them from school or joined them “family style” for hearty snacks and meals. Last year, our largest group of graduating seniors proudly received their di- plomas. Staff members shed some tears of joy while celebrating this milestone ac- complishment for our graduates. And when a 14 year old boy (one of our former students) was murdered only 50 paces from our office door, we experienced deep sorrow while mourning alongside our frightened and confused children. God placed WCMC in this Over-the-Rhine neighborhood to shine the Light and share the Love of Jesus. WCMC brings hope to hurting people to help them navi- gate life – the hills of delight and the valleys of despair. May we be faithful to His call as He has always been faithful!

- 4. 4 In 2019, WCMCcreated a fresh, new look. Our updated logo visually tells the story of Wesley Chapel Mission Center. It helps you envision the city blocks that surround our spaces along with the streets and ally ways that divide them. The circle represents the destination point of WCMC or "the Center" as the children often call it. In the midst of the busy city blocks, WCMC shines as a beacon of light, illuminating the path towards the cross of Christ. As we live in the center of Christ's love, we will accomplish our vision of becoming a trusted, loving safe haven for the children of Over the Rhine. The bright, vibrant colors reflect the energy that children bring to our neighborhood, while the rich, traditional colors represent the longevity of WCMC in the community. Along with the new logo and color schemes, we launched a new website. It is designed to keep our Wesley Chapel Family informed, connected, and engaged as they read about WCMC and view pictures of our activities. Viewers can easily find out how to donate financial support, provide supplies, and how to volunteer and join the fun! Rebrand "I appreciate what Wesley Chapel does-- providing a safe and influential space for my sons to grow in. I’ve seen great growth in Amir and Amarr and I attribute that to God working through the staff at Wesley Chapel." ~Lashawnda 9 New Partnerships In January, WCMC was selected as a finalist for the Social Venture Partners’ Fast Pitch.
