Easter 1955

This image reflects an early dramatic effort by the youth of Wesley in 1955.  They produced several plays from 1948 to the early 1970's helped by the occasional adult thesbian, including, "A Man Called Peter" about the life of minister and senate chaplain, Peter Marshall and various Biblical plays.

Become a Friend of Wesley

A special "Friends of Wesley" group is made of individuals, organizations, and businesses who wish to support the historic preservation of the century old and historically significant Wesley Methodist Church (Wesley United Methodist Church) founded in 1910.

The inspiring windows dating to 1928 honored people significant to local Oklahoma City history but also to the history of Oklahoma Methodism.

The church founding and development was guided by lay people who were leaders in Oklahoma City development in real estate, banking, business, and education.

It stands as a rare remaining example of Methodist Churches in the English Gothic style and as work by a significant early architectural firm.
