Welcome

The Dakota District is an exciting arm of The Wesleyan Church! We are composed of 56 churches, serving North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Alaska and Utah.

We are made up of church congregations that are quite varied.... in style, in size, and in setting. Churches range all the way from a very small rural church, to a church of over 4,000 in a growing city. Dakota District places a high value on a "team spirit" that embraces us all - no matter the size or location of the church! Every church matters!

We are passionate about connecting people with Christ - and about helping them grow to be like Him!

And, because planting new churches is a very effective way to accomplish this, we are totally passionate about birthing new churches.

We welcome you to visit us any time! But, since a trip to our area may not be possible, we hope that this web site will provide for you a small glimpse into what is happening among our Dakota District family!

Million Mile Prayer Walk...

As a rally cry for earnest discipleship, The Wesleyan Church invites you to become partners with thousands of us on the Million Mile Prayer Walk — a stirring challenge for Christ-followers around the world to unite in pursuing God for spiritual awakening and transformation. — Simply put, each 20 minutes spent in prayer equals one mile!

What's Happening Around the District

February 14th - From Venture Church, Bozeman, MT - Pastor Charley Carpenter
Wow! What a month it has been around Venture! In the course of one month we have held two preview services, celebrated Faith's 5th birthday, added 9 volunteers to our team - and just kicked off weekly services! ... We have been blessed with such an incredible support team and a phenomenal launch team. We are so blessed to be able to serve the people of Bozeman as missionaries!!! ... Thank you so much for your continued prayers, support and encouragement! We are so blessed to have all of you lifting us up in prayer, as well as cheering us on as we advance the Kingdom!

In Loving Memory of Elmore Blaine

Whether we knew him by Rev. Blain, Pastor Mo, or "Handy-Man-Mo"... all of Dakota District will miss Rev. Elmore Blain! Following his brief battle with ALS (Lou Gehring's Disease) Elmore came out the victor - winning the crown of life on Thursday, February 16th! Many Dakota district pastors and a host of friends joined together with Mo's family at First Wesleyan Church in Rapid City on Sunday evening and Monday morning (Feb. 19th & 20th), to praise God and celebrate a life well-lived!
