METHODIST CHURCH BRAMPTON in the
NORTH CUMBRIA METHODIST CIRCUIT
Welcome to the web site of Brampton Methodist Church, 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?

As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete. This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. John 15 v 9-17

Give me a candle of the Spirit of God, as I go down into the deeps of my being.
Show me the hidden things, the creatures of my dreams, the storehouse of forgotten memories and hurts.
Take me down to the spring of my life and tell me my nature and my name.
Give me the freedom to grow, so that I may become that self, the seed of which you planted in me at my making. Amen
