Methodist Support
As the school is named after the founder of the Methodist church the links the school makes with our local churches are really important to us, this involves inviting Reverend Helen Hollands and Tom Lewis Community Chaplin in to school deliver class worships and to support RE lessons.
Methodist worship takes place on two sites in Ashford as part of a partnership with the United Reformed Church under the banner United Church Ashford, they are also a part of the South Kent Methodist Circuit.
The nearest site, on the corner of Cade Road and Kingsnorth Road, is known as the United Church Cade Road.
They meet every week at 10:30am on a Sunday and once a month at 5pm.
Their Junior Church, called Lighthouse meets at the church, during the morning service on the First, Third and Fifth Sunday’s of the month (although there are a few changes to this schedule so please check the website). The fourth Sunday of the month is a service of All-Age Worship.
On the Second Sunday of the month (again a few changes around the school holidays) we run a Messy Church from 3pm at the John Wesley Church of England Methodist Primary School.
At 6:30pm on a Sunday evening our Youth Group (SKY) meets at the church.
Each week we also issue a Podcast of Weekly Devotions onbehalf of the South Kent Methodist Circuit, you can see the weekly posts on our website.
On the other side of town to the school is their second site in Kennington, on the Faversham Road. On this site, they worship at 10:30am on a Sunday.
Please see the website for further details.
