Bishop’s Stortford Methodist Circuit
Beds, Essex and Herts
District 34/18
The Bishop’s Stortford Methodist Circuit is
made up of one town centre church and three village churches. It is geographically spread along a north-south line straddling
the Essex and Hertfordshire border, with Bishop’s Stortford being the main
church to the south. The churches are served by one full-time Methodist
minister and one full-time and one part-time URC minister, both of whom also
have responsibility for other URC churches in the area. Many of the churches
have strong ecumenical links, and two of the churches are in Local Ecumenical
Partnerships; one with the URC, and one with the URC and Anglican churches.
Saffron Walden Methodist Church closed on Palm Sunday 2014, but many of its
congregation are now worshipping at Abbey Lane URC in Saffron Walden. For more
information about Abbey Lane URC please click on the
website link below. Worship is also led by two
supernumerary ministers and our team of nine local preachers and nine worship
leaders. The churches have varying styles of worship from the
traditional to the informal.
