Welcome!At Wesley, we want you to feel at home and a part of something special. It is our purpose to help you feel a sense of belonging and vitality. With that in mind, this page serves as a place to begin by identifying ways in which you can become acquainted with us. Listed below are 4 options for you to explore. Search through the site to learn of other opportunities to join us. Continually check on current activities and choose an event that appeals to you. We welcome you to participate however you feel drawn. (To view information for your child, please refer to the Children's Page and the Youth Page.) 1. Worship With UsOn Sunday, Wesley offers three distinctively different Worship Services. Do you desire to worship in a celebratory or reverent manner? Do you prefer a traditional or informal worship environment? Do you like the option of early worship on Sunday, or a brief devotional service on Wednesday evening? Come, experience the variety, and get to know the people of Wesley.
2. Join a Small GroupWe have a dynamic Small Group Ministry referred to as Cell Groups. A Cell Group meets twice a month to share and encourage one another. It is a great time to talk openly and honestly about the joys and struggles of life and share insight. Getting started in a Cell Group is a snap; just Contact the Church Office for more information. In addition to Cell Groups, other groups of interests and fellowship are available for you to participate in.
3. Participate in a StudyStudies for growth and fellowship, both short and long term, are offered through out the year by clergy and experienced lay people. Topics include lessons and discussion of the Bible, as well as other interests, such as parenting and finances.
Several groups of adults meet on Sunday morning, prior to worship services. There are additional studies offered during the week and evening classes offered on most Wednesdays.
For more information on study groups, visit our Adult Education page or view Current Studies. Contact the Office with your questions.
4. Attend Inquirers' ClassesThree times a year, the Senior Pastor conducts an informative session for those considering membership at Wesley. These 3 classes, referred to as Inquirers, allow the opportunity for you to ask questions and achieve a good understanding of the ministries, activities and programs offered at Wesley, as well as the Methodist beliefs. Attending helps you make an informative decision regarding the important matter of membership by explaining what is meant when you take a vow to honor and praise God by committing your "time, prayers, talents and treasures".
Announcements of upcoming Inquirers classes are made in the Monthly Newsletter and on our web page, Announcements. You can express your interest to attend by checking the box "Desire Membership" on the attendance sheet during worship and you will be contacted. Or Contact a Pastor about your interest and you'll be informed of dates when Inquirers classes are scheduled.
