Our Sunday morning services usually begin at 10:30 (with the doors open from approximately 10am) and worship lasts for approximately an hour. Some of our special services are accessible on zoom so please get in touch via email for the details of how to join us.
In worship and prayer, the Methodist Church in Chapel Allerton celebrates God's work in our lives, our vibrant suburb and the wider world. We aim to be a welcoming and inclusive church who encourage everyone in their journey with Jesus.
In September 2025 we welcomed Revd Emily Young as our minister. She also has pastoral charge of Roscoe and Trinity Methodist churches and we look forward to working closely with Emily and our sister churches.
We will soon be in the season of Advent when we look forward to celebrating the birth of Jesus. You will be most welcome to visit us for a 'Crib Fest' on Tuesday 16th December from 2.00 – 4.30pm when a variety of nativity scenes will be on view. Entry is free and light refreshments will be served. Our annual Carol Service will be at 3pm on Sunday 21st December and the ever-popular Christingle Service is on Wednesday 24th December at 4.00pm
Raising money for charity is an important part of our ministry. From September 2025 our church charity is Amaudo. We have already raised over £3000 for this ground-breaking mental health programme in Nigeria. Our next fund-raising event will be a Christmas concert by the Wesley Singers with afternoon tea on Saturday December 6th at 2.30pm. Tickets £10 available from Paul Chaplin paul_chaplin@hotmail.com or 0113 2682513.
We look forward to welcoming you.
We are fortunate that our buildings are at the heart of Chapel Allerton, a suburb in North Leeds. Our current church building, which opened in 1983, provides an excellent flexible space for worship and community activities. We have recently welcomed Little Seedlings into our church building who provide daytime play and learning opportunities for young children and their parents.
The Methodist Centre across the road is in almost constant use. Over the summer holidays, our friends from Chapel A Baptist church and ourselves invested time and money in replacing the small kitchen downstairs, redecorating the upstairs hall and some of the downstairs rooms. Quite a transformation! The Methodist Centre hosts a variety of community groups including:
A weekly community lunch club, run by church members
Youth clubs run by Thrive Leeds, an ecumenical partnership
Brownies and Guides
Royal Voluntary Service friendship groups
We are blessed to enjoy very good ecumenical relationships, not only with the three other churches in partnership for Thrive Leeds http://thriveleeds.org.uk but also with Churches Together in Chapel Allerton and Meanwood. We join together for Hymns in the Street during the Chapel Allerton Arts Festival http://chapelallerton.org.uk and work with each other in social action, for example in support of asylum seekers. We are in a Covenant relationship with St Matthews Anglican Church and have close links with Chapel A Baptist church who worship in the Methodist Centre.
