The Foundation now has available 12 complete sets of the original publication of Obras de Wesley (14 volumes in hardback). These are available for purchase at $275 per set which includes shipping and handling. If you know of a Hispanic congregation here in the US who needs a set for their library, or a church or pastor somewhere in Latin America, you may write wethmw@mindspring.com to claim a set. These are the last remaining sets that the Foundation is aware of for purchase, all others having been distributed. A republication of Obras de Wesley in hardback (14 volumes in 1) will not be available until late in 2007.

 

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 today serves as an instrument of the Holy Spirit 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.

Obras de Wesley will be available on CD in April 2007!

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 tradition of thought and spirituality.
