Church family

The Methodist Church in Bamford is a small congregation of energetic people committed to worshipping and serving God. As far as we are able we seek to follow the example and teaching of Jesus.
We believe the love of God extends to all regardless of race, religion, age or gender and claim for ourselves no special privilege or favour.

Our commitment to caring and service begins within our own community but our horizons are world-wide. Our wish is that God's love as shown in Jesus may become a reality in the lives of all - then Christ's 'kingdom' will indeed have come 'on earth'.

We are part of the larger Methodist Church of Great Britain; in the first instance by being part of the Peak Circuit which supplies direction and support in terms of preaching and pastoral ministry.

We in turn are served and cared for by our minister, the Rev. Rose Bartleson, who resides at Hathersage.
