The Wesleyan Holiness Connection, also known as the Wesleyan Holiness Consortium, is an interdenominational organization of denominations and congregations, with membership primarily including those aligned with the Wesleyan-Holiness movement or Holiness Pentecostalism. It seeks to promote Biblical holiness in churches that historically rooted in the evangelical movement initiated by John Wesley.[1] The Wesleyan Holiness Consortium aims to guide efforts and projects focused on holiness in the 21st century for pastors, unity within and among the participating churches, a holiness voice to the broader church, and the importance of holiness in the future mission of the church.[2]

The Wesleyan Holiness Connection as a whole is a member of the Pentecostal/Charismatic Churches of North America (PCCNA).[6]
It consisted of scholars and denominational leaders from a range of Wesleyan and Pentecostal churches who were seeking to reconceive and promote biblical holiness in today's churches.
