About our Circuit

A new chapter for the Methodist Church in Sheffield

On 1st September 2013, eight separate groups of churches (Circuits) merged to form THE METHODIST CHURCH IN SHEFFIELD, part of the wider Methodist Church in Britain.
Our new structure will enable some 3000 members in over 65 church communities to focus on local needs and draw on central support. Our aim is to concentrate resources in areas where the needs and opportunities for partnership working are greatest.

The creation of a single organisation will enable improved dialogue with other Christian denominations, public and community organisations. We hope to build on city-wide and local partnerships where the Church can contribute to debate, community cohesion and volunteer-led delivery of services.

We believe that the formation of THE METHODIST CHURCH IN SHEFFIELD will be Good News for the City as it faces growing challenges. We are pleased to stand in the tradition of a Church that seeks practical ways of following Jesus Christ, who challenges us to help make our communities places where geographic and spiritual boundaries are erased and those who were counted last, become first.
