About
Wesley House is a hands-on, one-to-one, personal touching, lifting, healing ministry; one person reaching out to another; one tutor to one child; one counselor to one abused child or sexual assualt victim; one volunteer delivering food to a hungry family or clothes to a shivering child. Those who serve through Wesley House are the hands of God reaching out to those in need.
History
The story of the Wesley House Community Center began in 1904, when Mrs. Elizabeth Cochran and Mrs. J.R. Whittaker and some ladies of the Central Methodist Church in Meridian, Mississippi felt a calling to “…minister to the least of these…” These Methodist women sought to bring families in a cotton-mill community on the Eastern boundary of Meridian, into the sphere of Christianity. They began by teaching the wives of the mill workers to sew and their children to read Bible stories. <Learn More Of Our History…>
