Our church is in a period of discernment on whether or not to disaffiliate from the UMC. There are many resources available online and we have provided a few below that communicate the basics of why churches are both remaining and leaving the UMC.  Every member of Wesley UMC will have a voice and vote to determine the outcome of this decision. We will have several informational meetings that we will publicize.
