Welcome to Visitors

Visitors are especially welcome at our church.  Our church is opposite Holy Trinity Church (http://www.stratford-upon-avon.org/).    From any of the theatres in Stratford, continue down Waterside, away from the town centre.  This runs into Southern lane, at the end of which you need to turn left. Carry on until you reach the second entrance to Holy Trinity and the Methodist Church is opposite this.To locate the church try using this street map or multimap.  Please be aware that these maps are postcode based (CV37 6BG) and point to the general area.  Places with the same postcode include Hall's Croft and Holy Trinty church.

For details of our services see services page.  For details of physical access to the building such as parking and entrances to the church, see the facilities page .  Also see this page for details of the Coach Party Teas that can be provided.

New to our Church?

We would like to meet you. Please fill in one of the cards (that look similar to the home page of this website) in the pews and hand to one of the door stewards.  Or of course use the information on the contacts page.

When you come into the building, someone will greet you at the door and usually offer you a copy of the weekly notices and a service sheet.  The format of all services should be such that it is clear what is happening.  If it is not, we have got something wrong, so please tell us.
  
Most services last about 60 minutes or a little longer if communion is involved.  We have a monthly timetable for services detailed on the service page.  Someone new to church-going may prefer to come to a family service for their first experience as these are very informal occasions.  Note: if you need to leave during a service, no-one will complain if you slip out discreetly. 

All morning services provide crèche facilities.  Also see the children's page.

Should you need the "facilities", toilets can be found at the back of the church near the side entrance.

You are not expected to contribute to the work of the church (that's our responsibility) so don't feel embarrased to pass the collection plate on without putting anything in it. Many church members contribute directly through their bank accounts so you won't be the only one just passing the plate on.

After the Sunday morning services, tea and coffee are served in the Wesley hall to the right hand side of the church (when looking at the building)

Thanks to Penrith Methodist Church for its inspiration for this page.
