ReNovation  & Construction

This Summer 2026, John Wesley is beginning an exciting season of renovation and construction as we prepare our campus for future ministry opportunities.

Phase 1 of our construction project includes renovations and updates to the Sanctuary and Welcome Center, installation of a new chiller system, repairs to the Prayer Chapel exterior wall, construction of a new playground, and improvements to our parking lot.

Sunday Morning Worship

NEW WORSHIP LOCATION:  Beginning June 7, Sunday worship services will be held in the Wesley Activity Center Gym (WAC), which will serve as our temporary Worship Center. Please enter through the WAC doors located to the right of the playground.
