Our Mission

Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church seeks to minister to all who need to know Jesus Christ through education, evangelism, outreach, mission, and worship. Our ultimate goal is that men, women, boys, and girls would draw near to God and become empowered disciples for Jesus Christ.

Elder Ronnie Miller-Yow was appointed as senior pastor of Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church in July 2003. The membership at Wesley Chapel has grown considerably since Elder Miller-Yow arrived. And, even more importantly, much of the growth in the membership comes from the students at Philander Smith who are taking an active role in church leadership and participation.
