The Wesleyan Church does not impose strict Sabbatarian requirements on its members. The church celebrates Sunday as the Lord's Day—the Christian day of worship—in commemoration of Christ's resurrection. Sunday replaces the Jewish Sabbath as the Christian day of rest and corporate worship. This shift from Saturday to Sunday worship has been the consistent Christian practice since apostolic times and reflects the church's understanding that the resurrection inaugurated a new creation.

While the church affirms the principle of Sabbath rest (the value of setting apart time for worship, rest, and spiritual renewal), it does not teach that the Mosaic Sabbath law is binding on Christians. Individual conscience determines how one observes the Lord's Day. The church teaches that believers should prioritize corporate worship and personal spiritual rest while respecting cultural context and pastoral sensitivity regarding leisure and work. Sanctified rest is encouraged, but rigid legalism regarding Sabbath observance is rejected.
