Holiness of heart,
ordered for the whole district.
Wesleyan Church gathers Societies into Circuits, Circuits into a District, and Districts into a Conference — one body, governed in the open, walking the Wesleyan–Arminian way.
Five convictions that shape everything else.
These are the convictions that make us recognisably Wesleyan, distinct from Calvinist traditions, and rooted in the holiness movement.
The Authority of Scripture
The 66 books of the Old and New Testaments are received as the inspired, infallible, and inerrant Word of God in their original manuscripts — the ultimate authority for faith and living.
The Triune God
One living and true God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Universal Atonement & Free Will
Christ's death on the cross provided a perfect remedy for the sins of the whole world. Because God granted humans free will, salvation is available to anyone who chooses to repent and believe — it is not restricted to a pre-selected elect.
Entire Sanctification
After a person is born again, there is a distinct, subsequent work of the Holy Spirit known as entire sanctification — an experience in which the believer's heart is cleansed from the systemic power of sin and filled with a pure love for God and others, enabling a life of daily holiness.
The Wesleyan Quadrilateral
Scripture remains primary, but Wesleyans naturally filter faith and practice through four lenses: Scripture, Tradition, Reason, and Experience.
“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind — and your neighbour as yourself.”Matthew 22:37–39
Authority and representation, held in balance.
Our governance mixes episcopal and congregational elements across four tiers — from the Society, through the Circuit and District, to the Conference.
The Society is the local congregation — the fundamental unit of ministry, focused on worship, discipleship, and evangelism.
A grouping of Societies under one pastoral charge, led by a Circuit Superintendent, Circuit Minister, and Circuit Management Team.
A geographic network of Circuits led by District Bishop Rev PK Nkhoesa, supported by the District Management Team and gathered in a District Synod.
The supreme governing and lawmaking body of the denomination, presided over by the Presiding Bishop.
Eight circuits, one district, under Rev PK Nkhoesa.
From Thaba Nchu Central to Koffiefontein, each circuit is served by its own superintendent or minister and carries its own character.
