Wesley Day 24/5/21

Wesley Day was on 24th May, sometimes known as Aldersgate Day in the Methodist calendar. It’s the day which marks a significant event in John Wesley’s life which some people call his ‘conversion experience’. On May 24th 1738, Wesley writes in his journal that he went “very unwillingly” to a religious meeting in Aldersgate Street, London.

I thank God that he did!

and a quote from John Wesley:

“My fear is not that our great movement, known as the Methodists, will eventually cease to exist or one day die from the earth. My fear is that our people will become content to live without the fire, the power, the excitement, the supernatural element that makes us great.”
