Across the West Durham Methodist Circuit, our churches provide welcoming spaces where children, young people and families can build friendships, explore faith, learn together and feel part of the wider church community.

A wide variety of activities take place across the circuit throughout the week, offering opportunities for all ages to connect, have fun and grow in confidence within safe and supportive environments.

Groups and activities across the circuit include:

• Lightseekers children and youth activities
• Rainbows, Brownies and Guides
• Taste & See family activities
• Carers & Toddlers groups
• Once Upon a Time parent and child sessions
• Youth fellowship and community groups
• All-age worship services
• Seasonal family events and activities
• School and community partnerships

Our churches are committed to creating welcoming and inclusive spaces where children and young people are valued, encouraged and supported.

Whether you are already connected with one of our churches or visiting for the first time, you will always receive a warm welcome.
