Wesley House (Yellow)
Named after John Wesley and his mother, Susannah. John Wesley led England’s greatest spiritual awakening, convicting and redeeming a nation. In his pursuit of holiness and to preach at outdoor evangelistic meetings, he covered much of the country repeatedly on horseback. His mother, through her faith and zeal, raised John, and brother Charles, to be world-changers with the Gospel.

Booth House (Blue)
Named after William and Catherine Booth, the founders of the Salvation Army. The couple set out, in 1861, to take the Gospel to the streets of England to reach folk who did not conform to traditional church settings. They used street meetings, parades and marching bands to attract the poor, the destitute and the addicted with the love of Christ. Both were famous and fiery preachers and set their hearts on following God’s leading regardless of much political and religious opposition.

Win or lose, we have no fear.
In the pool or on the track
We do our best, we don’t look back.
B-O-O-T-H Booth.
