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?

 Do not be afraid , little flock, for it is your Fathers good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions, and give alms. Make purses for yourselves that do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.    Luke 12 v 32 - 34

Generous God, help us to learn that our treasure is found not in gold or silver or bronze,

But in giving away;

Not in banks or coins or wealth,

but in serving each other;

Not in paintings or houses or cars,

But in caring for one another.

Show us how to find treasure

In the simple things in life,

In being with each other -

That is where our treasure is found.

Amen.

Thank you to all who give to the Church in any way, and particularly to those who have set up Standing Orders for their regular giving. If you are a UK taxpayer and would like us to claim Gift Aid this is the best way to make your contribution,  please talk to Linda about doing this. Remember Gift Aid gives us an additional 25% on every donation.
