About Us

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: The Leprosy Mission

During September, we will be supporting the work of The Leprosy Mission.

Every two minutes, someone is diagnosed with leprosy. That’s more than 200,000 new cases a year. Although it is curable, millions of people worldwide are living with the effects of the disease, from physical disability to mental health problems, poverty and discrimination.

The Leprosy Mission is a global Christian organisation leading the fight against leprosy. Following Jesus Christ, it seeks to bring about transformation; breaking the chains of leprosy and empowering people to attain healing, dignity and life in all its fullness.

The Leprosy Mission is recognised across the world for excellence in the fields of leprosy, neglected tropical diseases and disability. The Mission pioneers ground-breaking surgical techniques and rehabilitation programmes that transform lives.

Everything the Leprosy Mission does is focused on its goals of zero leprosy transmission, zero leprosy disability and zero leprosy discrimination. It works in four key areas to achieve this:

  • Diagnosing and treating leprosy;
  • Caring for disabled people;
  • Fighting stigma and advocating for change; and
  • Pioneering research.

The work of the Leprosy Mission goes beyond medical care for a holistic approach that includes early detection, education, rehabilitation, water and sanitation, community reintegration, counselling and psychosocial support, research and advocacy. Together with its partners, the Leprosy Mission is researching a diagnostic test and vaccine for leprosy.

You can support the work of The Leprosy Mission throughout September, using the envelopes in church or at anytime via The Leprosy Mission website.

Donations are co-ordinated by Alison Craggs who will be pleased to give you more information about the work of The Leprosy Mission.
