ABOUT US
What Should You Expect When Visiting With Us
Walking into a new church can be intimidating and at times terrifying depending on your previous church experience. If you are considering attending one of our worship gatherings, we pray that you would take the vulnerable step and come check it out! We can't fully describe what you will experience, but at least we can try to give you an idea of what to expect.
On a Sunday morning you might see some people in a suit and tie, others in a t-shirt and shorts, and a lot of in between. We believe that God doesn't expect us to clean ourselves up before we come to Him and His church; so we say, come as you are. Our worship gatherings usually last around 20 minutes and include worship through music, the preaching of God's Word, prayer, and communion. We also periodically celebrate through believer's baptism.
Our prayer for every gathering is that you would feel welcomed and loved and that you wouldn’t leave the building thinking about how cool our artwork was, how funny the preacher was, or how awesome the guitar player in the band was. We want you to leave our gathering amazed at God’s radical love expressed through the finished work of Jesus Christ.
If you don't remember anything when you leave our gathering except how radically awesome Jesus is, we view that as a huge success!

Our History
Main Street Wesleyan Church was founded in 1906 with 6 charter members possessing a desire to maintain a holiness influence in the community of Elwood and surrounding area. From that humble beginning the Church has continued to grow and be a lighthouse on the corner of 27th and Main Street pointing people to the saving grace of Jesus Christ and a holy lifestyle. Through the years the church has had several building additions with the latest building added in 2000- a Family Life Center.
