Latchford Methodist Church Response to the current “stay at home” lockdown

A statement was issued by the Chair of the Liverpool Methodist District, Rev Dr Sheryl Anderson, addressing the current covid pandemic. We encourage you to read the statement by clicking here.

Based upon the advice of our district, our desire to help reduce the increasing number of Covid related deaths and infections, and mindful of the huge stress our NHS system is struggling to locally manage we will not be holding any services from within our building. Instead we encourage everyone to stay at home and watch our services online.

Sunday service will be Live each Sunday at 11AM on facebook. You will need to pre-register if you haven’t already done so.

If you don’t have facebook, or wish to re-watch or download to your personal players, then a recording will be available after the service on our website.

We will review this decision in February.

Our building may be closed but our church will always remain open.
Latchford Methodist Church.

Advent Study with Rev David Easton on Zoom.

Rev David Easton is holding three Advent meetings on zoom which anyone from across the circuit is welcome to join. The studies will be based on a book by Revd  Stephen Dawes called “Who is this Jesus born of Mary?”

His book looks at Matthew chapters 1 and 2, Luke chapters 1 and 2, and John 1 vv 1-18.  It is not necessary to have a copy of the book to join the study course but I understand it is possible to get the book through Amazon or possibly ebay.

The dates and subjects are:

30th November @ 7.30pm – looking at Matthew’s account of the birth of Jesus
7th December @ 7.30pm – looking at Luke’s story of the birth of Jesus
14th December @ 7.30pm – looking at John’s explanation of the coming of Jesus

Anyone wishing to join us should email <…..> for the zoom joining details.

Please e-mail [email protected] for the contact name.

Trinity Safe Space – Help Needed

The circuit have been working with Trinity Safe Space during Covid but it has
been difficult giving the ESOL lessons and supporting the asylum
seekers. As lockdown and Covid are likely to be with us for some time
yet, we’ve been reviewing how we can support people without actually
meeting them face-to-face. We’ve identified several roles that we need
help with and I’m wondering if anybody in the Circuit has any spare time
to help with the following:

ESOL lessons – we’re using Zoom and What’s App. We have a qualified ESOL
tutor to help with any training needed

Befrienders  – loneliness and mental health is an issue with many of the
asylum seekers and we thought that if someone was prepared to telephone
them perhaps once each week or fortnight that would help. We are
currently looking at some ‘Listening’ training

Administration – as we often apply for funding, we’re looking for
someone who could collate paperwork. Also, we have been offered a
storage unit to keep clothing and food but need somebody to oversee it.

I’ve attached some role descriptions below but if anyone would like more information or an application form then please e-mail <…..>

Please email [email protected] for the contact details.

Many thanks


November 22nd Sunday worship service is now available to watch or download

Sunday November 22nd worship service is now available on our website under “Recordings of our Services“ for viewing or downloading.

The recording includes all hymns and songs.

The website allows you to download the recordings for later playback on your personal devices. Why not listen again in the car, garden, whilst walking or exercising?

Text4Prayer – Volunteers wanted

Text4Prayer is an initiative that was a result of prayer walking around Padgate and God speaking very clearly about a way that the community beyond the church could connect with us to ask for prayer in whatever situation they face.

There is a dedicated mobile phone that is only for texts, not calls, and each message that is received gets a personal response from one of the trained T4P team.

There are not huge numbers of texts being received – sometimes none, other times a few in a week – and the phone can be passed on to another trained team member at any time to ensure that it doesn’t become a burden.

I am now looking to grow the team and will be putting on training on Tuesday 15th December at 10am  on zoom, for anyone who is interested in learning more and possibly becoming one of those who take charge of the phone.

If you are interested in this, and are confident in using a mobile phone, please contact me for further conversation and the zoom connection.

Allchurches Trust Grant award

We are so happy to announce that Allchurches Trust has awarded us £12,000 from their Hope Beyond thematic programme towards our Video Streaming Project.

We would like to express our gratitude and thanks to Allchurches Trust for this award.

We also wish to thank Enid for assisting with our application.

Church Building closed for until December 2nd

It is with sadness that yet again we have to suspend access to our church building to comply with Governmental instructions that take affect on November 5th.

This national lock down will legally prevent places of worship from being used except for:

  • Funerals
  • To broadcast acts of worship
  • Individual prayer
  • Formal childcare or where part of a school
  • Essential voluntary and public services, such as blood donation or food banks
  • Other exempted activities such as some support groups

As a result, the following planned onsite Sunday Worship services have been cancelled.

Sunday 8th – Remembrance Sunday
Sunday 22nd  – Last Sunday before Advent

We pray our planned service for Sunday 6th December, 2nd Sunday in Advent, can still be held onsite. It is hoped we can still do some type of collection for Children’s toys or maybe money. We will publish further information when it becomes available.

Except for Butterflies nursery, no one will be permitted access to our church buildings.

Our Church isn’t a building made from bricks. Our church is made from our faith and love that we have for our God, our minister and for each other and so during this time we will continue to worship LIVE EVERY SUNDAY via Facebook: Warrington Methodist Worship

Anyone without facebook can watch Sundays recording of our worship service during the afternoon via our website.

If you have any questions then please don’t hesitate to phone any of the stewards or post your question our facebook site or website below.

Video Live-streaming Grant Application success

We have been working on a proposal to obtain equipment for Live-streaming from within our Church. This will allow a sustainable solution for not only live-streaming and video recording our services, but will allow our clubs and the wider community to use these facilities for many years to come.

We have successfully applied for a grant from the circuit and have been awarded £7,500. We are applying for grants from external organisations to fund the remaining costs of this project.

Re-Opening our building in October

Coming back to worship

We are aiming for a return to worship October 11th, 2020 at 10.45am. Hopefully going forwarded services will then be every fortnight. This will be in the form of a 30-35 minutes service with a congregation.

This will be subject to government and Methodist advice and the covid-19 situation at the time to ensure a safe return for you all

What will it be like?

Please be prepared to wear a face covering and sanitise your hands on arrival. Hand sanitiser is provided, and a disposable face covering can be provided if you forget to bring one. Please be aware some people cannot wear a face covering because of underling medical conditions.

All decisions have been taken to keep you safe as we return to a different way of church.

Each service will be reviewed, any problems or concerns that arise addressed, and any change in government and Methodist guidelines implemented.

Rev Linda Bishop will continue with her online worship at 11am on each Sunday.

Please contact Julian or e-mail [email protected] if you require further information

Growth Plan: Church Architect

We have appointed the award winning Architects from Condy Lofthouse. This company is based locally in Liverpool and has a proven track record working with Churches as well as other types of buildings.

Covid has and will continue to delay the work on our growth plan but we will work hard to make progress. Part of this will include an introspective review of how lessons learnt from covid can be used to improve and alter our growth plans.

We will then work with Condy Lofthouse to develop a detailed feasibility study for review at a future Church Council meeting.

Christmas Angels knitting request

Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat,
Please put an Angel in the collection hat.

OK, so Poetry isn’t my strong point; But could we please appeal for knitted Angles in time for Christmas.  Never knitted before? Why not give it a try and see how you get on?

These Christmas Angels have made a fantastic difference to peoples lives and, more now than ever, we need them even more.

We’d be grateful for as many as possible and the pattern is available on the Church website <click here>

We will figure out a way of collecting them in time for December.
Many thanks from the Latchford Mission Team.

An further update on our Church Building

A few people have noticed the “building closed” sign on our Church and Hall doors have been removed. Their removal wasn’t intentional but instead blew away in the recent gales.

New signs will be going up this weekend saying the following:

ALL ACTIVITIES SUSPENDED

After reviewing the latest regulations and guidance on places of worship, our demographics and the increasing possibility of a second wave we intend to keep the building closed and continue with our online worship services and mid-week pod casts. It’s imperative that we don’t undo all the hard work and sacrifices made over the past few months as well as keeping everyone as safe as possible when we do finally open.

With the exception of Butterflies Nursery and authorised Church staff, no access is permitted to the church buildings.

We are constantly evaluating this situation and will reopen the building as soon as we can.

Worship services are being live-streamed on Facebook on Sunday’s at 11am. Please check our website for information on how to access this broadcast.

We pray that everyone remains safe and healthy and look forward to the day we can re-open our door.

With love and Blessings,

CHRISTIAN AID WEEK May 2020

Christian Aid faces a huge dilemma this year.  For decades, it has relied on the generous donations of the general public to fund its overseas aid and development programmes aimed at alleviating poverty and addressing crisis situations.  Last year the total raised was in excess of £8m and engaged around 57,000 volunteers.

This year, due to Covid-19, there are no door-to-door collections, but we are still being encouraged to donate.  This year the focus is on Kenya, which is experiencing its worst drought in living memory, and now has Coronavirus to contend with too.  The prospect is extremely worrying.

What were we all told to do to combat Coronavirus?  “Wash your hands”.

Well, that’s not difficult if you have soap and water.

Christian Aid is helping Kenyan’s to build water traps and dams, without which many will die from a basic lack of water and hygiene.  We remember from Holy Week how when Pontius Pilate could not find any fault in Jesus he ‘washed his hands’ claiming to be “innocent of this man’s blood” (Matt 27:24).

Please let’s not “wash our hands” of the plight of our Kenyan brothers and sisters.

If you can, please donate a little something to Christian Aid this year. There is also an online petition calling for the government to cancel the debt of some of the poorest countries to help them survive.

You can give via the” Lymm Churches Together” Christian Aid Just Giving” page:   

https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/gillian-chiverton

Or

You can give directly here: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/CAWeek2020.
