Coming Soon: Back to Church Sunday

Minister August 19th, 2010

We’re gearing up for Back to Church Sunday – 26 September. It’s an opportunity to invite friends and neighbours to come along to church, with the promise of a warm and non-threatening welcome!

The tag-line for Back to Church Sunday this year is come as you are – affirming that whatever your situation and however you might be feeling, the church is there for you. Here at the United Church, Back to Church Sunday will also have a creative theme as we celebrate the Crowborough Arts Festival.

Here’s a short video showcasing one church’s experience of Back to Church Sunday in 2009:

Visit from Nigerian Methodist Prelate

Minister June 11th, 2010

Revd Steve Mann, our Methodist Circuit Superintendent, writes:

The Circuit is delighted to be hosting His Eminence Dr Makinde Sunday Olatunji, Prelate of the Methodist Church in Nigeria, for three days at the end of next week. He is visiting the UK for the Methodist Conference and the World Church Partners’ Consultation in London. Dr Olatunji will also be preaching at a special celebration service for the Nigeria Health Care Project, to be held at Wesley’s Chapel on Saturday 19th June.

We would like as many people as possible to meet Dr Olatunji and find out more about the Methodist Church in Nigeria. To this end, we have organised a coffee afternoon on Thursday 17 June, 3pm until 5pm at the Circuit Superintendent’s manse in Tunbridge Wells. Please drop in at any time during the afternoon. Dr Olatunji will also be attending the Preachers’ Meeting at Crowborough that evening.

Stop Press: We have just heard that, unfortunately, Dr Olatunji’s travel plans have been changed and he will not be arriving until Friday. We very much regret that the coffee afternoon planned for tomorrow (Thursday 17 June) will therefore not take place.
