Alabama Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Church

The Alabama Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Church was the regional unit of the Wesleyan Methodist Church encompassing the Birmingham area prior to the 1968 merger of the Wesleyan Methodist Church with the Pilgrim Holiness Church to form the Wesleyan Church. After the merger, Alabama congregations became part of the new denomination’s Mid-Gulf District.

In 1967, there were 15 organized churches in the conference with a total of 1,126 full members (i.e., youth and adults).

Birmingham-area congregations included:

• First Wesleyan Methodist Church
