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
We are pleased to share our programme of family services and activities for Christmas-time and New Year. Do come along whenever you can. A Very Happy Christmas and New Year to you all.
We have a variety of worship styles during Advent as shown above; we also invite you to our Candlelight 'Messy Christingle' celebration on Christmas Eve. We start by preparing Christingles at 3.00pm (all welcome); and then enjoy a special Family celebration in our Church at 4.00pm.
Time Together Tuesday is designed for mums to come along to chat and relax before the school pick-up; then children join them @ 3.15 and have a snack. Messy Church will be later in January.
From early December, a Christmas Tree will be decorated outside of our Hall. We invite you to tie a Remembrance 'Lights of love' star onto the Tree to remember a 'much-loved person.'
Shoeboxes were also delivered to Simon Rooksby in late November for his journey to Eastern Europe. Please think about him as he makes this journey in December with everyone's gifts for many families.
