Garforth Methodist Church

Colton Methodist Church

Colton Methodist Church is situated in the "old" part of Colton Village, with modern housing developments continuing to grow around us. Our vision is that we are seen as a vibrant place of worship at the heart of the Colton Community.

Mission Statement: We are a community of God's people responding to the good news of God's love in Christ.

There has been a Methodist Church in Colton since 1832, although the current church building is relatively new, designed to enable use by the community as well as for worship. In addition to Sunday worship and Junior Church, several church-linked and other groups meet on the premises during the week.

Sunday Morning Worship takes place at 10.30 am each week in the building, along with Junior Church (except when all age worship). Worship at Home sheets can be distributed to those who can't get to the building, and worship is available on Zoom or YouTube most weeks via other churches in the Circuit.

Family JAM (Jesus and Me) 4th Sunday of each month 4pm to 6pm. This is an informal time of gathering, hearing a Bible story, responding using craft, creativity and conversation, a short time of prayer and a song, then eating a meal together. This is especially suitable for families with children aged 4-12, but everyone is most welcome, whether you have children in your family or not.

Wednesday Coffee Morning10.30am to 11.30am. Drop in for a cuppa and chat

Wednesday JAM (Jesus and Me)which meets on the 2nd & 4th Wednesdays of the month after the Wednesday Coffee Morning (so it usually starts 11.45ish for about 45 minutes). We will share an episode from the life of Jesus, some quiet reflection on what we've heard, a prayer, a hymn and a light lunch.
