Who are the Wesleyans?

The Wesleyan Church is an evangelical, Protestant denomination. We offer the good news that faith in Jesus Christ makes possible a wonderful personal relationship with God, a holy life empowered by His Spirit for witness and service, and assurance of eternal life in heaven. Our ministries emphasize practical Bible teaching, uplifting worship, and special programs to meet a variety of life needs.

With World Headquarters in Fishers, Indiana, The Wesleyan Church has nearly 400,000 constituents in 5,000 churches and missions in 80 countries of the world.  Formed in 1968 resulting from the mergers between several like-minded groups, dating back as far as 1843, The Wesleyan Church has its roots in John Wesley’s Methodism.

The Wesleyan Church of Fairfield was officially organized on December 8, 1997.  After meeting in homes and a community center, the congregation purchased property on Route 45 north of Fairfield with a partially constructed building.  Construction resumed, finishing the building as a church.  The 3335-sq. ft. structure was completed in 1998, and the congregation moved to its current location in April of 1998. 

Over the next few years, growth made more space necessary, and the church purchased adjoining property.  Ground was broken in October 2006 on a 3800-sq. ft. addition for a new sanctuary.  Existing space was then remodeled into Sunday School and fellowship space.  The new structure was dedicated on August 26, 2007
