About Easter Offering

Each year, the Methodist Church holds an Easter Offering dedication service. This tradition dates back to 1883, when women in Manchester collected £32 for missionary work overseas from ‘Christmas pennies’ at family gatherings on Christmas Day. In March 1884, the London Districts distributed Easter envelopes and collecting bags asking for a penny a head, and collected around £100. In 1900, Women’s Work raised £1,655 for the work of overseas missions.

In 2019, collections from Easter Offering services raised over £370,000, thanks to the generosity of Methodists.

All the money raised through the Easter Offering goes to the World Mission Fund of the Methodist Church in Great Britain for work overseas and within the UK including  student ministry training.

The church warm space work will continue through April.  If you could please spare an hour on a Wednesday to assist then it would be really appreciated. Please see Margaret.

An early reminder that the clocks go forward one hour next Sunday 26th March.
