In our group of churches we seek to follow Jesus. We are among the millions of His disciples in the world, and like them, we strive to live out the Christian life. We seek to fulfil the call of Jesus to love God, and love our neighbours, by serving our local communities. We invite you to join us on this journey of spiritual growth and community engagement.
The town and local area of Wigan in the North West of England has a long history of Methodism and it's mission. Currently represented by our eleven Methodist Churches, and the presence of a number of Independent Methodist Churches in the town. Our twelve churches cover north, south, east and west across the town and beyond to its outer edges. Our churches offer a warm welcome to newcomers and long standing members alike. You can find out more about each church and the range of worship and activities using the tab at the top of the page.
May God bless you.
Mary sings, “My soul magnifies the Lord”.
But how can I make God greater?
Lord of life, in the way I live, move and inhabit my being,
mirror in me your extravagant love and expansive goodness.
Enlarge my soul: to bear witness to human destruction, riven by unspeakable violence.
Enlarge my soul: to rail against relentless consumption, upending the gentle balance of the earth.
Enlarge my soul: to speak out against power-seeking policies, indifferent to hunger and dismissive of need.
May my spirit dance to the intricately woven melody of prayer, praise and protest.
Be ever greater within me, that my soul may magnify the Lord forever. Amen.
