Welcome!

Picture
Welcome to Wesley’s website! Here you will find everything you need to know about Wesley, including what to anticipate on your first visit.  No matter who you are or where you are on your journey, you are welcome at Wesley!

I started here in July of 2013.  As the Senior Pastor at Wesley, my first priority is to make sure everyone feels welcomed and finds a place at Wesley to connect with God and other Christians.  We are here to support and care for one another.

This support and care comes in the form of discipleship.  We encourage individuals, couples, and even families to get involved in a small group.  The purpose of the small groups are to help us grow in our faith, connect with others who are going through similar experiences in life, and to be encouraged especially when we are facing difficulties.

Last, but certainly not least, as a church we want to give back and help others.  What makes Wesley a great place to attend is its commitment to changing the world.  Some do this through volunteering time, some do it through donating items that are needed, and others do it through financial gifts.  We partner with several community and national organizations to help impact people’s lives.

As a spouse and parent, I try to make church relevant in meaningful and memorable ways.  My wife Alison and I are raising three boys.  We call Wesley our church home and I hope you will call Wesley your church home too!

Peace,

John Bell
​Senior Pastor
