Find a community
where faith is honest,
inclusive, and alive.

You don’t have to leave your questions—or your identity—at the door.

Join us this Sunday at 10:00 a.m. (onsite or online).

Ever felt like you had to hide your questions or who you are?

Been part of a church that said “All are welcome” but didn’t mean it?
Wondered if faith could still feel real in today’s world?

At Collegiate/Wesley, you can:

Explore faith with honesty and curiosity.
Belong to a community that affirms and embraces all people.
Live out a faith that transforms both you and the world around you.

 

We know what it’s like to feel unsure where you fit in a faith community. That’s why we’ve built a community where thoughtful people can belong, believe, and become—without pretense or pressure.

Collegiate/Wesley has a rich history of campus ministry and compassionate service in Ames. We’re committed to being a place where questions are welcome and love is lived out daily.

 

3 Steps to Connect

It’s easy to get started:

1

WORSHIP WITH US

Come as you are on Sunday morning for worship. We’ll make sure you feel welcomed from the moment you walk through the doors. Engage in conversation and connection that invite both curiosity and belonging.

2

EXPERIENCE COMMUNITY

Join us for our Wednesday Night Supper during the school year—a simple, welcoming way to share a meal and get to know others. You’ll find space to ask questions, explore faith, and be surrounded by care and encouragement.

TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP

Serve with us through Food at First, volunteer with Clothing That Works, or join one of our small groups or Wesley Foundation gatherings. Or just ask—we’ll help connect you with what fits you best.

Searching for a church can feel challenging—especially if you’ve been disappointed or excluded before. At Collegiate/Wesley, you’ll find an affirming, thoughtful community where you don’t have to check your brain—or your heart—at the door. We welcome questions, value dialogue, and believe faith is best lived out through love and service. We’re not perfect, but we’re becoming the kind of community that reflects God’s radical grace.

Come as you are.
Stay curious.
