John Wesley and his younger brother both served as Anglican ministers in the 1700s. They are considered the founders of the Methodist denomination in 1730s. With the help of Wesley, Methodist leaders were involved with the most pressing issues in society at the time such as the abolition of slavery and reforms in the prison system.
