Ninfield Methodist Church, East Sussex
Ninfield Methodist Church, Church Lane,
Ninfield, Battle, East Sussex TN33 9JN.
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. |
News from Ninfield
Our Methodist tradition enjoys a custom that celebrates the Anniversary/'Birthday' of its churches each year. This month we will celebrate the 153rd Anniversary of our Church's Birthday. The Building took place in 1871 and has witnessed to the love and fellowship of God for all this time. We are pleased that the Reverend Malcolm Peach, a retired Methodist minister, will travel to us from Kent to lead our worship as shown above.
On July 14th we look forward to joining with our friends at St. Mary's for a United service at 10.30 a.m. We invite you to any of our services or events. Every week our worship is suitable for all ages and family orientated. We feel sure you will find a very warm welcome.
Our own Messy Church is then planned in the Summer Term holidays on July 24th. Anyone is welcome as we enjoy a Summer walk and picnic. Please bring your own picnic food to share and come along for 1.30pm....should be good! Enjoy the holiday times and may the 'Love and Peace of God' be with us all.
