Charles Wesley experienced a conversion on 21 May 1738—John Wesley had a similar experience in Aldersgate Street just three days later.
A City of London blue plaque at 13, Little Britain, near the church of St Botolph's-without-Alders, off St. Martin's Le Grand, marks the site of the former house of John Bray, reputed to be the scene of Charles' evangelical conversion on 21 May 1738.
It reads, "Adjoining this site stood the house of John Bray.
Scene of Charles Wesley's conversion by faith in Christ on May 21st 1738".

Wesley felt renewed strength to spread the Gospel to ordinary people and it was around then that he began to write the poetic hymns for which he would become known.
It was not until 1739 that the brothers took to field preaching, under the influence of George Whitefield, whose open-air preaching was already reaching great numbers of Bristol colliers.

After ceasing field preaching and frequent travel due to illness in 1765, Wesley settled and worked in the area around St Marylebone Parish Church.
On his deathbed he sent for the church's rector, John Harley, and told him "Sir, whatever the world may say of me, I have lived, and I die, a member of the Church of England.
I pray you to bury me in your churchyard."
Upon his death, his body was carried to the church by six clergymen of the Church of England.
A memorial stone to him stands in the gardens in Marylebone High Street, close to his place of burial.
One of his sons, Samuel, became the organist at the church.
