Englesea Brook is an active Methodist Chapel which holds regular services. We welcome all worshippers. We also hold occasional services at the Hassall Road Methodist Church in Alsager. In addition we hold online study sessions during Lent and Advent and host online Methodist heritage talks. The whole world is invited to our online events.
No matter where you are in the world you can settle down in front of your computer, tablet or phone and enjoy one of our stimulating talks on subjects connected to Primitive Methodism via Zoom.
Our next talk will take place on Saturday 15th March. Our Heritage Officer, Amy Wilkinson, will be talking on the subject of women in Primitive Methodism under the title “Just Women”.
All of our heritage talks are held on Zoom, starting at 11am UK time, and are free to join! (though donations are always welcome…) Zoom details for individual meetings are circulated with the publicity for each meeting.
We also have a YouTube Channel, to which we are posting previous heritage talks, appropriately edited, and to which you can subscribe. The site went live in the Autumn of 2021 and is regularly updated with new videos, which you can see below, with the most recent first:
