MUSIC MINISTRY

At Wesley we believe that music is a universal language that helps us to understand God’s deepest truths. We offer numerous opportunities to allow your inner musician to worship and share the gifts that God has given you. Musicians of all levels are encouraged to find a place within this ministry.

Contact our Director of Music Ministries Jeff Wickell for questions or information.
