Worship is such an imortant part of the life of Wesley. Worship happens in a multitude of ways. The corporate (group) worship services occur at 8:00 am and 10:30 am on Sunday mornings in our beautiful Sanctuary. We also have a Prayer and Praise service on Monday evenings in our Third Street Narthex and a Contemportary Praise service on Saturday evenings in our Sanctuary.
Listed below is information about the facility and specific points of interest about our worship services. If you have any questions about our services, please contact the Church Office by clicking here.
Accessibility
Wesley Church is completely handicap accessible. All of our floors are serviced by an elevator. Our Murray Avenue entrance features a ramp and raised platform for wheelchairs and strollers. In addition, we have restrooms that are wheelchair accessible.
For those with hearing difficulties, our sanctuary is equipped with listening devices. Please ask an usher for assistance.
In our Sanctuary, we have Bibles and Hymnals in each pew. We project the words to the hymns and scripture on two large projections screens on each side of the Sanctuary.
Nursery Care
Wesley offers three nurseries for children aged 0 months - 5 years. Below is a brief description of each nursery and its facilities.
Infant Nursery
Loving care is provided for children age 0 - 20 months in our infant nursery. Volunteer staff engage in playtime, read stories, feed, change, sing with and to the kids, and rock Wesley's littlest lambs.
The Infant Nursery has a crib, two play pens, changing table, microwave, sink, baby swing, rocking chairs, CD/cassette player to provide soothing music, lots of baby toys and books, and a lighted display system in the sanctuary to call parents. The soft colors, adjustable lighting, and starry wallpaper make babies feel safe and comfortable. This area is open during the 10:30 worship service all year round.
Toddler Nursery
The Toddler Nursery is our busiest one! Volunteer staff provide loving care and a safe environment for our children age 20 months to 3 1/2 years. During the Sunday School hour dedicated teachers lead the children in learning Bible stories through music, crafts, flannel boards and story telling.
This room is recognizable because of the beautiful shepherd mural on the wall. Age-appropriate furniture, toys, books, and puzzles help the children enjoy their stay in the Toddler Nursery. This room also has a rocking chair, changing table, sink, adjoining child-sized bathroom, and a lighted display system in the sanctuary to call parents. Open during the 8:00 and 10:30 services all year round.
Preschool Nursery
The Preschool Nursery is located upstairs in the Education Wing with the other children and youth classes. Children age 3 1/2 to 5 years old enjoy crafts, games, singing, and Bible stories with dedicated and caring volunteers during the Sunday School hour.
A kitchen center, puzzles, drawing easels, book area, and lots of toys make the Preschool Nursery a fun place to be.
