Welcome to the web site of Borders Methodist Church, in Brampton, in the North Cumbria Methodist Circuit. The North Cumbria Circuit was formed in 2014 by the merger of the Brampton Methodist Circuit and the Carlisle Methodist Circuit. We are a community based church located in the centre of the market town. Our aim is to show God’s love for all - in our church life, our worship and witness. We work closely with the other churches in our town and local area through Brampton Churches and our local Mission Community. The Green Door Centre (opposite the church) is an ecumenical youth project working across all areas in Brampton.We are a family friendly church, dementia aware and with disabled access throughout.  If you are new to the area, on holiday, wanting to return to church or with questions why not join us?

Church Notices for September 2025

Church email address:

bramptonmethodists@gmail.com

Which one of you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that is lost until he finds it? When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders and rejoices. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbours, saying to them, “Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.” Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. Luke 15

  A warm welcome to the new Minister in Carlisle section, Rev. Nigel Rodgers and his wife Lucy.

We thank you, Lord, for seeking us when we lose our way.

We praise you for restoring us when we feel ashamed and worthless.

Your love lets us know that we are enough.

We raise our praises to the One who embraces and enfolds us in welcome, who reminds us of our worth

and restores us to a proper sense of ourselves, who we are and how we should live.     Amen
