The Wesley Heritage Foundation was chartered in 1990 as a means of producing a Spanish edition of the major writings of John Wesley. The result, OBRAS DE WESLEY, is now complete and this day serves as an instrument of the Holy Spririt for renewal and unity of the Body of Christ. The design, first developed by a team of Latino and Anglo Wesleyan scholars and church officials, has now been executed by the Wesley Heritage Foundation as a scholarly ministry and offering to the Hispanic world.


The Wesley Heritage Project, which resulted in OBRAS DE WESLEY, consists of a three phase process as conceived and administered by the Wesley Heritage Foundation:

Phase 1: The translation and publication of the major works of John Wesley in 14 volumes. One of these volumes, vol 9, includes many hymns composed by Charles Wesley and translated for the first time in Spanish.

Phase 2: The Distribution of OBRAS DE WESLEY throughout the Spanish-speaking world. This is being done by retail sales through denominational bookstores and directly by the Wesley Heritage Foundation. Also, through special agreements with autonomous churches in the Wesleyan traditon, sets of OBRAS are being subsidized by solicited Sponsors for subsidizing the distribution of OBRAS DE WESLEY among pastors and schools whose economies do not enable them to purchase the books at US retail prices.

Phase 3: This is an "in progress" phase whereby funding is provided primarily for Hispanic scholarly initiatives in Wesley Studies. The Wesley Heritage Endowment was funded to insure the costs of the completion of the publication of OBRAS DE WESLEY, and to generate earnings from the principal of the Endowment to promote scholarship in Wesley Studies and advocate the Wesleyan traditon of thought and spirituality.
