History and Mission Statement

Established in 1984, Wesley Glen Ministries serves adults with mental disabilities by providing a home environment and continuum of programs to allow each individual to develop skills and greater confidence, living happy, full lives as contributing members of their Wesley Glen family and the surrounding community.

Wesley Glen is a private, not for profit agency and ministry of the South Georgia Conference of the United Methodist Church. Our goal is to increase the public awareness to the strengths and barriers related to people with mental disabilities, while being committed to providing services, in a Christian atmosphere, that improve the quality of life for individuals and their families.

Wesley Glen owns and maintains seven group homes and 2 apartments in Macon, one home in Byron, one home in St. Mary's, two homes in Lyons, and two homes in Jesup, Georgia. For the current residents in Macon and St. Mary's, WGM also provides programs and services, such as individual Service Plans and supported employment.

"The enduring legacy of any people is how they helped with human hurts and hopes. at Wesley Glen we are investing ourselves in a ministry of healing and wellness in a supportive Christian environment. Join us in this compelling ministry."     ---Dr. William Oliver
