Our doors are open again. Hallelujah!
We have started Sunday worship again!
On the first Sunday of the month we're meeting at 2:30pm and for the other Sundays it's at our usual time of 10:30am and we'd be delighted if you were able to join us. Obviously, in the current situation, things have to be different. The safety, protection and comfort of everyone coming into our building is our major concern so we are following the latest guidance on social distancing, face coverings and hygiene. But with your help and understanding, we can once again meet to praise God and serve his world. But while our doors have been closed we haven't stopped being 'the church' or serving our community as best we can. To see some of the ways we have been active in the community over these past months, just click here. Join our Circuit service on YouTube:
This week Simon Charters reflects on the theme “Strength for Love”, a comparison of our modern understanding of strength with Jesus and Paul’s demonstration and teaching of true strength through love and care for others. ...just click here. Zoom... in to join us...

John steps out!
The Rev John Howard is walking the 268 miles of the Pennine Way, in October, to raise funds for the Methodist-based charity Action for Children. He'll be keeping in touch via his Facebook page - John's Pennine Challenge. To follow his progress, just click here. You can donate to John's Just Giving page by clicking here. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to Action for Children, so it's the most efficient way to give - saving time and cutting costs for the charity. 
For Women, For Justice, For Christ
During the current pandemic we have not been able to meet or share many of the activities we had planned in the Darlington District including our annual MWiB Autumn Day, so the coordinating team have produced a Rainbow Service which we hope you will find encouraging, uplifting and comforting. To join in, just click here.

When you can't get to a funeral...
In these difficult times, the number allowed to attend funerals remains very limited. That means many family members will have to mourn the loss of a loved one from their home.
To help them do so in a thoughtful and meaningful way, the Methodist Church has prepared this short act of reflection. You can download a copy here.
