Welcome to Kinver Methodist Church. We are a welcoming community with Jesus at the centre. We aim to worship Him together and draw others to love and follow Him.
Kinver is a large village in South Staffordshire, bordered by Shropshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands conurbation. Over 7,000 people live in the village which is famous for the Holy Austin Rock Houses and Kinver Edge, both of which are owned by The National Trust.
The Church itself is located at the Potters Cross end of Kinver Village, within easy walking distance of the High Street and Kinver Edge.

Charitable Giving
Traidcraft
Traidcraft aims to fight poverty through trade, helping people in developing countries to transform their lives. It was established in 1979 as a Christian response to poverty and is the UK’s leading fair trade organisation. At Kinver Methodist Church we support this organisation and products can be bought & ordered after our Sunday morning services each week.
“For the whole law can be summed up in this one command love your neighbour as yourself” – Galatians 5:14
Monthly Collections
As part of our Christian ministry we are committed to supporting the work of a different charitable organisation each month, but disruption to our patterns of worship over the past twelve months has made this more challenging.
Many charities have seen their income drastically reduced as a result of the Coronavirus Pandemic. Please pray for the continuing work of these vital organisations and, if you are able, consider making a donation via the relevant website.
You might like to consider supporting those charities which would normally form part of our regular monthly programme. They are:
January: The Leprosy Society
February: Mission in Britain
March: Overseas Mission
April: Easter Offering (Network)
May: Christian Aid
June: Methodist Homes for the Aged
July: Action for Children
September: Street Pastors
October: All We Can
November: Medic Malawi
December: Offerings from our Christma Services are donated to Action for Children.
Thank you.
