Congratulations to Village of Wesley Chapel on it's 25th birthday. Celebrations will be held in Dogwood Park on Saturday, July 15 from 10:00 to 2:00. Everyone is invited to help celebrate this occasion. There will be food, fun, games, give-aways and more. Dogwood Park is located on Lester Davis Road close to intersection of Weddington Road (Hwy 84). Parking will be available across street at the church.
Wesley Chapel's existence as a community far exceeds the 25 year birthday/anniversary. Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church is at the heart of the Wesley Chapel community and has been the hub for community activities down thru the decades and even centuries. The church and school were/are located at the intersection of Hwy 84 (Weddington Road) and Potters Road South. The church as been in existence 1832 so the church will be able to celebrate its 200th year in 2032. The existence of the church predates the existence of the county in 1857.
Many families from the Wesley Chapel area attended church at Wesley Chapel UMC. You can be a part of this staple of the community! All are invited and all are welcome! Effective July 9, the church has a new Pastor, Rev. Russell Alexander from the Harrisburg area. Come out on Sunday to experience a high energy service and be a part of a growing congregation. Service time has been changed to 11:00-12:00 on each Sunday morning. Come out this weekend on Saturday to celebrate the 25th Birthday of Village of Wesley Chapel and on Sunday at 11:00 for an exhilarating religious experience (Methodist Style).
