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.

“For the whole law can be summed up in this one command love your neighbour as yourself” – Galatians 5:14

Action for Children

Although we do not support a particualr charity throughout December, the collections from our Christmas Services will be donated to Action for Children. 

The difference your support could make

For vulnerable children across the UK, Christmas is anything but magical. No stockings. No presents. No festive food – maybe no food at all. Their first memories of Christmas could be going to bed hungry, being too cold to sleep and losing all hope when Santa doesn’t come.

But you could help change that. Your gift could help a vulnerable child feel the magic of Christmas.

For more information on becoming a Secret Santa for a vulnerable child, please visit the Action for Children Website: Secret Santa or you can support this vital work through the collections at our Christmas Services.

Donations are co-ordinated  by Suzanne Smith who will be happy to provide more information on the work of Action for Children.
