Welcome!

The Methodist Church's main building is at the heart of the community, and has been standing there for over 150 years but was extended and refurbished 30 years ago to provide a modern multi-purpose base.

Today there is a community garden at the front of the church building to provide space for all the village to relax and meet in a peaceful setting.

The morning service is a family friendly affair led by our worship band and featuring many modern songs, as well as the more traditional hymns. This is live-streamed via our YouTube channel. The Junior Church meets at the same time. The evening service is a Circuit service which normally takes place via Zoom except once per month there is an in-person service which rotates around the circuit. 

For those who would prefer a more "conventional" and reflective service there is a midweek service which is offered monthly at Lanchester on Thursdays at 7:30pm. 

In the week there is a wide range of activities which are detailed elsewhere on the website. This includes cell groups (currently meeting via Zoom), youth activities, wives and friends group, social groups and activities.

The church also has a centre just down the road called Croft View Halls. This has a sports hall, small hall, kitchen and band room and this is a place where many activities take place including many external lets.
