When you arrive at Wesley you can enter through the front doors ("F" on
the map), but you'll find that most members and visitors enter through
the courtyard ("C").
Reminiscent of times when families didn't use their front doors, we
welcome you as a part of our Wesley family to "come to the back door"!
Continue on to the Sanctuary (#3) where you will find friendly and
helpful people to greet you.
For
our Japanese-speaking visitors, services are held in the Japanese
Chapel (#4).
