The Methodist Church in Britain has announced it is launching a Digital Transformation Programme in January 2026 – a bold and forward-looking initiative that will support the Church in becoming more connected, responsive and equipped for mission and ministry in a digital age.
We welcome the announcement that Hamas and Israel have agreed to the first phase of a deal that will release all hostages and see Israeli troops withdraw to an agreed line.
More than 1,700 children and young people aged between 4 to 18 years old went on “The Journey of a Lifetime” last weekend, Friday 3 to Sunday 5 October, at 3Generate, the Methodist Children and Youth Assembly held at the NEC, Birmingham.
One of those welcoming the young people was Genesis Padgett, the Methodist Youth President, who offers this report on the event.
Methodist leaders have welcomed the appointment of Bishop Sarah Mullally as the new Archbishop of Canterbury.

Lent Reflection
Wednesday evenings, 7pm
Every Wednesday during Lent our Minister, Rev David Winstanley, will be broadcasting a short Lent Reflection via the Church Facebook page. Members of the Church congregation who live in the village should have received a Lent bag of items to accompany the reflection. If you don't have a bag, then the items you’ll need are: a small piece of sandpaper, a mirror, a shell, a small stone, a nightlight and a small flower bulb.
