"Sango" means "God sent" or "savior of the people."


In many communities in Cameroon, clean drinking water is a challenge. In some places, women and children walk up to two hours a day just to get potable water. Digging a community water well provides life-giving drinking water and dramatically reduces time and effort spent to collect the water.


For the past seven years, church member Valantine Che has been traveling to Cameroon at least once each year. During his visits, he funds and oversees the installation of at least one water well in a local Cameroonian village. Depending on the specific area, it generally takes between $5,000 and $7,000 to dig and complete a finished water well.


Valantine Che plans to return to Cameroon on June 7, 2025, and install an additional water well for a community in need. Our congregation has the opportunity to partner with Valantine, assisting him to raise the funds necessary to finance the building of a well. If you would like to make a special donation for this effort, you can give to the church and simply label it on your check, envelope, or in the memo/note space through the online giving page and write "for well digging." You can also donate online here.


Please contact pastor Tyler with any questions.

Palm Sunday Worship Service – April 13th at 10:15am, WCPC Sanctuary

 

Maundy Thursday Worship Service – April 17th at 7pm, WCPC Sanctuary

 

Good Friday Prayer Vigil – Just as we have done in previous years, we will have a prayer vigil during the day and into the night on Good Friday, April 18th. People will have the opportunity to sign up for 1/2-hour time slots to pray, either on your own or as couples, inside the sanctuary. There will be materials (printed and visual) and a prayer sheet set up to help guide your prayer time. Lisa Breithaupt is once again helping to coordinate prayer participants; please contact to sign up for a prayer time slot (hours are 6:00am - midnight).

 

Either before, after, or even during your time with the Prayer Vigil, come experience a prayer walk. Starting in the Fellowship Hall, you will pick up a stone and carry it with you; stopping at several stations on the way to the Sanctuary and then back again to the Fellowship Hall. Each station will feature one of the Last Words of Christ and a prompt to consider as you walk. In the Sanctuary, you can leave your sins and hurts with Christ and finish the walk. At the end, you will be prompted to go back to the stones and pick up someone else’s stone so that you can pray for them during the following year. If you have any questions, please contact John Cathcart.
