The church building was erected during 1870 and 1871 as a Christian Mission and dedicated by William Booth in 1871. William Booth is better known as General Booth of the Salvation Army, which he later founded. His wife, Catherine, laid the foundation stone on Thursday, July 6th, 1871.

The church became a United Methodist Chapel in 1907 and on the occasion of the Methodist Union in 1932 three branches of the Methodist Church, the Wesleyan, the Primitive and the United joined to become one church denomination.

In 1958 the Church was extensively renovated. In 1979 a hall and kitchen were added and this was fully modernised in 2013. The hall is now a popular venue for many church and village activities.

Ninfield News - October 2019

We look forward to our Harvest Praise on October 13th when we welcome the 1st Ninfield Scouts with their families and friends. This should be an amazing time of celebration together so do come along and enjoy this special occasion with us. Any Harvest gifts that are given will be shared with the Bexhill Foodbank. Our service will be led by Topsy Brice.

Messy Church continues again on October 23rd when our theme will be ‘God’s Armour of Light.’ This sounds like a really fun topic with plenty of opportunity for a variety of great activities.

We enjoyed a lovely United service with St. Mary’s, Ninfield and St. Oswald’s, Hooe in September at our Church. Many thanks to the Reverend Paul Frostick who led our worship and communion. It was great to have both of these congregations worshipping with us.

Our next United Service will be at St. Mary’s on Remembrance Sunday in November.
