Services

The church has a service and a Sunday School at 10:30 each Sunday morning. There is a portable ramp for easier access for all. We begin with the singing of worship songs, and then the children go to a separate room for their activities. We finish about 11.30 am, often with a cup of tea/coffee. At present the church membership is 33, and we have a lot going on. You will receive a warm welcome. Cafe Worship happens at 8.00pm on 1st Sunday of alternate months. Look out for the posters and dates on the plan!

Tea Club

You are invited to join us for our Tea Club, which starts at 6:00pm & ends around 7:30pm on alternate Thursdays.
It’s a great opportunity to enjoy fellowship over a light meal - and a lovely, gentle way to introduce new people to the church family (or re-introduce those who’ve been away for a while).
All are welcome, more details from Val & Jim who will start this again in September.(831035)

Care & Share Fellowship

Fortnightly led by Barbara on Tuesdays at 10:00 -11.00 a.m.at Hartington Street Chapel. Fellowship, Prayer and a cuppa. This is led by Barbara, and will restart in September.

Bible Study

On "Non Tea Club weeks" you now have an opportunity for Bible Study - also at 6.00 p.m., at Hartington Street Methodist Church, on Thursday. Most are led by Martin Williams, and at the moment we’re in the early stages of working through Mark’s gospel, and you’d be most welcome to join us. It lasts about an hour and includes a cuppa.
