What’s HappenVBS & Sunday
ing At UMW
What happened to the May
General Meeting? Sadly,
members of our church went home to the Lord
and the meeting was cancelled in respect to
the families and celebrations of their lives.
Hopefully, we will be able to re-schedule hearing about our AGAPE youth. The All Daughters Banquet was again a beautiful event for
women to connect with women, the speaker
gave a wonderful report about the Asian
branch of OU’s Wesley Foundation and how
we can support a Chinese student and help
bring them to Christ. Thank you Joyce and
Heather, UMM, Richelle, and all that helped
for making this a fun night in Christ.
Who is on the cover?
Those are our new Project Transformation interns for this summer! Read more about them

On Fire to Serve
Wow, what a church! This is such an exciting place to serve. I am blessed that I have been appointed to serve another year here. We are living in an exciting era in the Oklahoma Conference. Our Bishop is a man of God whose faith is on fire and he has called his pastors to go out
into the churches we serve to burn with what John Wesley called the ‘fire in the belly.’
In the second chapter of Acts, we read about a church which was set on fire by the Holy Spirit.
In that church, a deep sense of awe came over them all as they performed many miraculous
things and met together to join in prayer and share what God had given them. I too am in awe
of all the miraculous things our church is doing as we meet together to share the gifts that God
has given us.
Being a Christian is not a passive thing. It is exciting and adventurous. Everyone who calls
upon the name of Christ is called to be Christ-like. God has given each of us a specific gift
which can and must be used to further the Kingdom. For some it is out front, for some it is behind the scenes. Whichever it is for you, God needs all of us working together to bring about
the cause of Christ.
We are standing at the horizon of a new spiritual breakthrough in the lives of those in our congregation, in our church and in our community. At Annual Conference Bishop Hayes called us
to be “On Fire to Serve.” This exciting call is upon us and should be central in our prayer life
as each and every day we take another step closer to Christ in our journey of discipleship.
Sociologists are calling this current age the Post-Christian era, because churches have lost
their position as the center of American community life. For many people the church has no
real place in their lives, and faith is something they never consider. Half of those who you pass
have no church affiliation and little if anything on which to base a faith commitment.
Yet when it comes to weddings, baptisms, funerals or crisis, most people still believe the
church is suppose to be involved. They just do not know how or why. It is sad, but there are
times when I speak to a family after the death of a loved one, that the room becomes uncomfortably silent when I ask about the faith of the deceased. Many of us leave this world having
never shared their faith with anyone, not even with those whom they love the most.
This is why it is so important that we as a community church in the
“Heart of Moore” make a difference and be at the “Heart of Ministry.’
Luke 10:27 tells us to “Love God with all your heart, and with all
your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and
your neighbor as yourself. ”Jesus says “Do this and you will live!”
May the Holy Spirit set us on fire as we share our stories of faith
and make a difference for our neighbors here in Moore and around
the world.
Blessings,
Pastor Rob

Dear Family and Friends,
This month marks 17 years on staff at Moore First. I
am so blessed to be called by God to serve here.
When young adults finish high school/college we often expect them to know what they are going to do for
the rest of their lives. I like to tell them, to pray on it
and listen. Try what you think you are most interested
in but be open to the Holy Spirit guiding you. When I
graduated high school, I wanted to go into the medical
field (or so my hs counselor said). After a few years
of college and a tour of the anatomy lab, I discovered
I wasn’t so fond of blood. I took several electives and
discovered I was interested in nutrition. I changed
majors, colleges and graduated with a degree from
Immaculata College (go Mighty Macs!) I completed
an internship in Dietetics in Baltimore, MD. After
taking my boards, I became a Registered Dietitian. I
worked in Neonatal Intensive Care Units with premature infants, Pediatrics, Oncology, and Intensive care
units. My jobs were great but something was missing.
I moved to working more closely with people, teaching them about nutrition in college and as an outpatient dietitian, eventually led grocery store tours. I
was getting closer but still wasn’t where I was supposed to be. Many years later, I began volunteering
here at church. I LOVED it! The position of Youth
Director opened and I was asked to consider it. I
fought it for several months thinking that I went to
school to be a dietitian, that is what I was supposed to
do with the rest of my life . Eventually, I began listening to the nagging voice inside my heart (sorry God,
but You did nag!) I accepted the job and had a peace
unlike I ever felt before. After 14 years as the youth
director which I loved, the change to Director of Welcome and Outreach was at first difficult for me. We
sometimes get stuck in what we think we are supposed to be doing and block out God’s voice. Eventually, I opened up and listened to God! Wow! When
we listen, the most amazing things happen! I love
serving God’s people! I love serving on staff! I LOVE
my job! I still do dietitian work as that is what I studied so hard to do but I am so happy that what I studied
overlaps with how I serve here! When you meet
someone who is moving onto a new chapter in their
lives, rather than ask ‘What are you going to do
now/for the rest of your life?” consider asking them,
“What new chapter is God leading you towards?”
Richelle Leibold
Director of Outreach and Welcome Ministries

Project Transformation: meet our interns.
Matt August: team coordinator.
College: Oklahoma State
Major: Psychology
Hobbies: Sports (Basketball, lacrosse, golf, tennis,) Videography, Mountain biking
Hometown: Tulsa, OK
Why pt?: I plan to attend graduate school for School Counseling and
eventually work with middle school and high school students. I think PT
will give me a great experience with educating kids and will help prepare me for my
career. Plus, I believe serving kids is a calling all of us have! It's our duty to help teach
Kat Evans: reading coordinator.
School: OCU
Major: Elementary Education, going to be a junior this fall
PT: 2nd year!
Position: reading coordinator
Hobbies: alpha phi sorority, photography, cheerleading @ OCU
Hometown: Yukon Oklahoma
Myriah Hadnot: recreation coordinator.
I Graduated from Bacone college with BA in business administration with
a focus in management. I am from Austin, Texas. My hobbies are playing
basketball, working out and talking to family as much as possible since
I'm always away. PT was a leap of faith and opportunity for me to grow
as a leader, a person and as someone who plan on having their own
recreation center in the future.
Manu Medina: math & science coordinator.
I grew up in Purcell Oklahoma. I attend the University of Central
Oklahoma and major in Psychology. I will be attending Graduate
School and focusing on Child Psychology and Behavioral Analysis.
10
Project Transformation: meet our interns.
Jordan Thomas: arts coordinator.
My name is Jordan Thomas and I am from Yukon, Oklahoma. I go to
school at a private Christian college in Missouri called College of the
Ozarks where I major in psychology. The cool thing about my school is
we work jobs on campus to pay for our tuition. I currently have the
blessing of working as a Resident Assistant on campus and I love it! My
hobbies are reading, catching up on my favorite tv shows, hiking,
hanging with my friends and family, being in the Word and going to
church! I originally heard about PT from a friend, but the more I learned
about the program the more excited I got about getting to work with
the kids and for the opportunity to grow in my faith! I am pumped to
be the arts coordinator and to get to make all kinds of cool crafts this summer!
Karen Salgado: afternoon activities coordinator.
I am a 22 year old senior at the University of Central Oklahoma.
GO BRONCHOS! I am currently pursuing a degree in Spanish Education
with a minor in English. I will plan to start my career as a spanish
teacher and then as soon as I aquire my masters in ESL Education, I
hope and pray to God, to be able to work as ESL professor. As a Latina,
My main goal is to give back to my community, to show them that we
are able to accomplish a higher education. Which is why I want to serve
low income inner city schools... if I can at least inspire, teach, or influence
at least one kid... that is my mission in life. I am in love with running.
I've done 3 half marathons.
I decided to participate in Project Transformation mainly because this
program is known for serving kids who were like my younger self...
Who came from schools that maybe weren't the best or are barely acquiring the english language or simple just struggle with school or even
maybe their homes are not good environments. Those kids just need that extra push,
a little more faith... and a little more love. Which is exactly why I am part of this project and pursuing an education degree.
I want to be a teacher that does more than teaching because thats what made the
difference in me and I am beyond excited to start my mission!
Adopt an Intern
This summer, two young men and four young ladies will serve as our Project Transformation interns. Some of
them are local but some are not and they are all living away from home for this summer. We need church
families to ‘adopt’ them. This would mean you pray for them daily, check on them by calling them or stopping by weekly, inviting them to dinner twice this summer or gifting them with dinner out. They provide an
awesome opportunity for us and the kids of our community. Lets help them be as awesome as they can possibly be by showering them with Christ’s love! Contact Amy or Richelle to let them know if you want to adopt
one of our interns.
